I'm 5 foot 127 pounds prepregnancy. Started showing at 14 weeks,im now 27 weeks but look 8 months. I'm told its because I'm small, but I've gained over 30 pounds already. Ftm.

I'm 5'11 & felt like it took forever to really show...I think it wasn't until 27 weeks or so till I was showing & finally now at 34 weeks I have an unmistakable, undeniable bump. It was hard early on, people would question me about actually being pregnant or would constantly encourage me to eat more (I was gaining, but no one could see it). Anyway...congratulations to you! :) I  hope you enjoy the second trimester & take it all in. I guess I share my story to say it can be frustrating when other people give judgement on your size or have ideas of how big or small you should be. I hope you remember that there is no normal & that you accept your body & bump. Possibly nothing you are concerned about at all, lol, but I can't help but share!

Every woman is different. It will also depend on how your carrying the baby. Some women don't show very much until they are later in their pregnancy. I'm 15 weeks with my second baby and I started showing already.
