I loved feeling my son moving around, until he started elbowing me in my bladder and kicking me in the ribs :)  I felt movement at 16 weeks.  I have pictures of me at around 20 weeks with a little pot belly.  I have pictures of my patients at all different stages of pregnancy in my office.  It is amazing how different everyone looks.  Women carry high or low, in front or all around, look humongous or you can hardly tell - everyone is so different.  Just take lots of pictures of that belly.  My son likes to look at them and hear stories of when he was in there.  To me, pregnancy is such a miracle of nature.  Even though I have morning sickness, I wouldn't have it any other way.  ENJOY. . .to everyone!

with my first i am thinking i was around 4 months or so (too long ago to remember lol) with this one i bloated badly, but i guess i have been showing for a bit. the thinner you are the earlier you might show :) not the case with me lol.  almost 12 weeks already, leaving the first trimester, isnt that great!
im excited to leave the second lol.  did you ever hear from javajess?  i think of her from time to time and worry.  i hope you are all having a great weekend, im just sitting around with swollen feet feeling icky.

That is GREAT... how wonderful that must be... i can't wait until I get to experience that...

I'm 11w4d today.. my waist line has been thickening for a while but this is the first week I think I actually have a little bit of a "baby belly"  I'm very excited to see the changes my body makes in the next couple of weeks.. from what I understand this is about the time that others start showing..

When did you start showing?
