I'm 16 weeks and I think I'm still waiting for it to happen, because my belly is totally flat in the mornings still, and I can suck everything in still. It just takes a little more effort, and I can't do it as long as before if I tried to suck it in to hide a really full stomach or something pre pregnacy.
It can seem pretty fast for some people, for sure! Mine's always been more gradual, though.
It was gradual for me but the past two weeks it's been a really fast forward gradual. :)
I sure think so. I know I usually pop right away...and then around 20 weeks, I slow down
Always gradual for me, although with my 3rd (son) it was faster than with my 2 DDs. They were both about 2 pounds smaller than he was. I also have a uterus that angles toward my back, so belly doesn't protude quite as much as some pregnant women.
When I wore baggy sweatshirts and sweaters, you couldn't tell I was pregnant.
I popped overnight with this pregnancy but it was much more gradual with the first. With this one, I was able to suck it in and everything although I did have just a little added swelling to my belly (it didn't look swollen to anyone but me, and certainly wasn't appearing pregnant). Then I went to bed one night and I couldn't sleep on my belly anymore, it just felt... weird. And when I woke up, BAM. Hello little baby bump. It's been getting slowly bigger ever since. Still not big but still. Very exciting =)
