For me it was at 14 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-consider-showing-to-mean#post-2032962 Tue, 20 Jan 2015 18:50:22 +0000 macintosh 2032962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Corduroy: I think you're showing if people who know you see a difference. Of course, I could see it at 7 weeks but I don't think anyone would have noticed until after 10 weeks.</p> <p>I'm nearly 25 weeks and some people I meet notice right away and some still say "I didn't know you were pregnant!". People who know have been really sweet. They all say "you look great!" :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-consider-showing-to-mean#post-2032885 Tue, 20 Jan 2015 17:25:44 +0000 Corduroy 2032885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for all the responses. I'm 19 weeks with #2 and as word spreads around the office every still seems genuinely shocked and says they didn't see it at all. I think I'm at the phase where people can tell something is different and/or that I'm getting fat.</p> <p>With both this pregnancy and LO1 my boss inquired about my fitness routine at week 6 (and never has outside of those two times) so I know he could sense something really early. I've also been in maternity pants since week 7 so it isn't like there's nothing happening. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-consider-showing-to-mean#post-2032882 Tue, 20 Jan 2015 17:23:23 +0000 illumina 2032882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I could see a difference with clothes on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-consider-showing-to-mean#post-2032814 Tue, 20 Jan 2015 16:31:26 +0000 Anagram 2032814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like it's when people who see you every day can tell you are growing specificially in the belly area. Like, I'm going to have to tell work earlier than I'd like, because I'm totally showing and can't really hide it anymore, and I'm only 10 weeks. I look the same as I did with LO 1 at like 18 weeks pregs. I'm HUGE in my belly.</p> <p>I could probably pass as someone who just has a big tummy out in the real world, but my friends/fam/coworkers can see a difference now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-consider-showing-to-mean#post-2032717 Tue, 20 Jan 2015 15:44:13 +0000 LuLu Mom 2032717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think showing means that people can physically tell you are pregnant based on your appearance, not guessing or nervous to ask. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-consider-showing-to-mean#post-2032714 Tue, 20 Jan 2015 15:43:16 +0000 Corduroy 2032714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not that it matters but I'm trying to decide if I'm showing. </p>
