I just strategically camouflaged it until then! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-632524 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 23:26:43 +0000 dojo 632524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think by around 22 weeks or so it was more of a bump for me - I even had someone say they thought I was just gaining weight before then... ick! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-632520 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 23:23:30 +0000 meganmp 632520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>24ish weeks or so! Up until then, in clothes I just looked like I ate at the buffet every night... Ugh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-632466 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 22:38:55 +0000 PrincessBaby 632466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 18 weeks, I think it started to round out. But by 20 weeks I think it was an official bump:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-632464 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 22:35:12 +0000 Mrs Hedgehog 632464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For me it was around 14 weeks. At 16 weeks it is definately more rounded and has a shape to it that looks more pregnant and less fat. Still not as obvious as I wish it was but we are getting there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-632403 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 21:50:02 +0000 maybebaby 632403@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>16 weeks I started to look rounder, 20 weeks before it was apparent to those who didn't know me well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-631939 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 18:27:00 +0000 MrsStar 631939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>13 weeks the bump looked like pudge, but got to 15 weeks and a definite bump! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-631929 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 18:23:22 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 631929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm nearly 19 weeks, and its getting to the point where its a pretty solid bump. I still feel like it looks like a jiggly beer belly on occasion, but that's just my perception (as far as I know). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-631906 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 18:14:41 +0000 Grace 631906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think there's a bit of a bump now at 16 weeks. I mean, it's not a real bump, but I feel more like I can fake it and not have it look so much like chub. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-631647 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 16:27:21 +0000 Silva 631647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was definitely a bump in my mind at 16 weeks, people started guessing at 19/20 weeks. The bloating before that was pretty awful though.</p> <p>I'm pretty sure the top of your uterus doesn't grow outside of the pelvic area until 12 weeks, so at that point you'll start to notice some changes, I'm sure :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-631544 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:54:58 +0000 StbHisMrs 631544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can still "hide" in some clothing, I haven't told my boss yet...<br /> I'll be 18 weeks in a couple days, I wore a tightish shirt yesterday and had obvious stares.</p> <p>To me it still feels very pudgy, not tight like I'd like it to. With my dd I think it really happened at 20 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-631502 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:44:11 +0000 Anagram 631502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I officially popped this week...I'm 22 weeks on Thursday! Seriously, I was *starving* all of last week, and then somehow in one week, I feel like I got HUGE. I'm officially pregnant looking---as in, people stare at my belly in public now. yayyyy </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-631435 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:28:36 +0000 Pepper 631435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I started to have a round bump at 18 weeks. However, I'd say 20 weeks is when I really felt and looked without a doubt pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-631421 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:25:03 +0000 .twist. 631421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd say 18ish weeks I started to feel like it actually looked like a round little bump and not just a couple cheeseburgers! </p> <p>Although to everyone else I don't think I look as pregnant as I feel. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-631418 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:23:49 +0000 Cherrybee 631418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally popped at 13 weeks. I just woke up one morning and my podgy eaten-too-much tummy was suddenly a full blown baby bump (worthy of someone 6 months pregnant!). My tummy muscles are clearly rubbish!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-631415 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:22:45 +0000 matador84 631415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was obv prego at 14 weeks. I took weekly bump pics and thought I was a whale then...at 40 weeks I was 3x bigger!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-631405 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:17:03 +0000 Bookish 631405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not until last week at 21 weeks! Until then I had a horrible pudgy B bump, it all of a sudden smoothed out into a nice D bump in the last week! I definitely look pregnant now, not like I ate too much :p </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-631371 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:07:49 +0000 Boheme 631371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>20-ish weeks if I wasn't wearing a fitting shirt. No one at work realized unless somebody told them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-631361 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:06:08 +0000 greenebee 631361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same here! Then all of a sudden at 14 weeks it turned more into a bump and now at 17 weeks, I feel like I "look" pregnant. :) Don't worry! It's all baby bump in the near future for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-574470 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 08:12:44 +0000 Smurfette 574470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 20 weeks. I thought that I was showing earlier but looking back at pictures, nope, just look like I was eating McDonalds fore very meal. </p> <p>Hang in there! The bump will come!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-574449 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 08:03:36 +0000 hellobeeboston 574449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 23 weeks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-574429 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 07:55:34 +0000 sorrycharlie 574429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not until about 22-23 weeks! I kept pushing my belly out though lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-574422 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 07:49:17 +0000 lawbee11 574422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm almost 15w and I think I have a little bump because I know I am pregnant, but I don't think a stranger would ever guess I am. I'm ready for my big bump! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-574416 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 07:45:46 +0000 Mrs. Lovejoy 574416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aw it took me a while. I don't think it looked like a true bump until maybe 22 - 24 weeks. But! looking back at pictures when I felt bloated and huge around 10 - 20 weeks, I now laugh because I really wasn't that big at all. Hold tight, it's coming soon and once it comes it just keeps growing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-574415 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 07:43:57 +0000 delight 574415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am 15w now and for the last week or so my belly has looked like a bump. I definitely look pregnant now, not just bloated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-574409 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 07:35:16 +0000 Mrs D 574409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs squirreld: I'm still in this pudgy stage too - I'm 13W tomorrow...fingers crossed around 15-16W it will look more preggo and less pudgy! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-574390 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 07:19:05 +0000 Foodnerd81 574390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe 15 or 16 weeks I started to feel like I looked pregnant, not just bloated. Weeks 8-10 I felt so gross and bloated and fat-- not so fun. I was half in mat pants just for the bloat. It'll get better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-bump-become-a-bump#post-574364 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 05:07:05 +0000 erinpye 574364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I felt that way until I was 24 weeks!
