Nope! I started having bloat/ a tummy at 7 weeks and it got progressively worse. At 12 weeks though it started not being as round on top and was more of a low bump. At 13 weeks there was no denying the bump and at 16 weeks I'm quite noticeably pregnant. But I'm really short and petite and have a short torso so not sure if that made a difference. I wish we could post pics!

Honestly, it moved around a lot but I'm not sure the bloat ever really went away. That sounds weird, right? Well, I would be bloated and then the bloat would go down, but I would start puffing out a bit higher than where the bloat was. It's definitely been interesting watching my belly grow and shrink and start taking different shapes than I'm used to!

I didn't really notice a bloat bump at all, but I lost weight during my first trimester so I ended it looking basically the same as I started it- I'd just swapped fat for baby (not a bad deal!)

I'm only 6 weeks and I swear that I have either a little bump or a large bloat haha! I'm pretty tiny, so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it. I was cramping a lot a week ago, so I thought that contributed to the bloat, but that's pretty much gone away, so I'm not sure about the little bump now. It's definitely not my normal tummy though, or something I can suck in!

Great question - at 6w5d, my evening bloat is terrible. I won't complain because I'm thrilled to be pregnant but I can't wait until this turns into a real bump!

No, I went from bloat to bump!
