When did you start to show?


So, today I woke up and none of my clothes fit. I had to "rubberband trick" my pants. I'm only 8 1/2 weeks and even though I have twins, it still seems way to early to be showing.

Ladies, when did you all start showing?

i remember having to unbutton and rubber band my pants around 7 or 8 weeks. i think at that point for me a lot of it was bloating. by 10 weeks i was showing to people who knew me but i was very thin to start with.....not now lol. my once upon a time 24 inch waist is now 37 inches! i started to wear maternity clothes by 13-14 weeks.

I started wearing maternity clothes at 6 weeks. They were just soooo comfy LOL! I mentioned it last time I was at the ACU and they said it could have been some bloating left over from stimming.

LOL! Yeah that happened all the time to me. There's a brief look of horror followed by "how many are in there...two?!" and you can go "yes, actually".

You got any bump pics up vineyard?

I get the same looks too...but it's funny how when I tell them I have about a month to go, they are like, OMG, it looks like you can have the baby any day now...then I tell them there's twins and then they say...oh, you're not that big for someone that's having twins...lol

I was in maternity clothes at 10weeks. There was a definite change in my appearance by then.
