How to conceal it once I start showing

[Haddock_Entrap_Propulasion]

I'm 11 and a half weeks, and now showing yet, but when it happens, there are gonna be issues.  I'm still living with my mom, and she must -not- know, at least not until it's too late to abort.  More importantly, no one else even knows I have a boyfriend, and there are good (if rather complicated) reasons why it needs to stay that way.  
So I was wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to hide it?

I trust my friends in general, just not to not accidentally say something.  They are human, and thus fallible, and there is very little room for the impact of human error here.  Thank you very much for the clarification, and the support.

Jen8950 is sort of right...I *was talking about family and close friends. But you say you DO have a support system, that your friends would be supportive - but some of them can't be trusted. That's an oxymoron - supportive friends, by nature, *can be trusted. Either way, dear, I really wish you well and hope everything works out for the best. You have a difficult road ahead of you on many fronts, I'm sure - but hopefully you find what you're looking for and get the support you are definately going to need. Just make sure that you put that baby's well-being and happiness above all else - that's the most important thing in your life now.

Hi. I just wanted to tell you that your local Community Church is a great place to turn to for support and advice. They will certainly not betray/jeopardize you/your child's well-being. Good Luck and God Bless!

I do not believe SoCal meant it the way you took it. From what I thinking, she means like your mom being there for you and a support system.
But thats just my opinion with that.
I hid it from my work until like 2 weeks ago. and I wore very loose things. This is my 2nd child, but I didn't want my work to know. I'm 14 weeks now and I am showing but I still believe that If I wanted I could conceal that I was pregnant. just buy baggier shirts.
I hope that it works out for ya. :)

Thank you...I don't know if it's "mostly all belly", I'm not showing yet...I hope it will bethough, if that will make hiding it easier.

Like you, I'm on the smaller side, and with my first was 108 and 5'3. No one even noticed I was pregnant till 6 months, because its all belly. Is yours mostly all belly? I wore a lot of Hooded sweatshirts and big t-shirts with sweats fo a while....you shouldnt have to defend yourself on here. This is supposed to be a comforting environment...Your only job is to make sure you and your baby are safe and healthy, and as long as that is true, I'm sure you have access to enough support systems to get you through. Unfortulatley, there are many women in your situation all over the world for various reasons who keep it quiet. I hope you can find trust in some people on here to confide in. I'm always here if you need someone. ***@****  Good Luck and Hugs!

Why do you assume I have no support system?  I have one, all of my friends would be supportive, but I can't trust all of them to keep their mouths shut, and if word gets out then my life would get very complicated, very fast.  When keeping it secret is no longer an option I do have a backup plan, but the later I implement it the more believable it will be.   I've lived a life where I had to hide things for 9 years now, one more isn't gonna be that much harder.  I sincerely hope that I will not find myself having to defend my decision here, as I enjoy being part of this community.  
Thank you all for the advice...I will definitely try wearing lose hoodies, which wouldn't be that suspicious with the weather here.  I'm 5' 2" and weight 100 lbs before I got pregnant, so I know I'm not gonna be able to hide it forever.

I'm sorry, but I have to say it...if you are still living with your mom, are underage, and have pretty much no support system, why in the world are you bringing a baby into the world? Raising a child is difficult and challenging under the BEST of circumstances. I read your profile and apparently a pregnancy you need to conceal is not the least of the things you have facing you in the future. And, trust me, I know from experiencing...secrets and lies and living a life where you have to hide things is a miserable existence. I really, really hope that you get the help and support you need...I wish you the best.

BTW - baggy clothes are the best way to conceal the pregnancy. But if you are already slim, or you don't *normally wear baggy clothes, I'm sure the people around you will be suspicious. Good luck.
