When Will Your Baby Bump Start Showing?
The most visible thing about your pregnancy is your baby bump. Women do put on weight during pregnancy, but it is the protruding belly that makes their pregnancy evident. It is only when your baby bump starts showing that everyone can identify you as a pregnant woman. That is why, women have many question and doubts about their baby bump.
When Does Baby Bump Start Showing?
One of the most frequently asked questions is, 'when will my baby bump start showing?' Actually, there is no particular answer to this question. The time differs from person to person. Sometimes the bump is visible in the early stages of pregnancy. For some women, it is difficult to distinguish the baby bump even when they are well into the second trimester of their pregnancy.
This point can be very well illustrated by taking the example of two famous pregnant celebrities; Kim Kardashian and Kate Middleton. Kate Middleton is in the seventh month of her pregnancy and she still doesn't need maternity clothing. But Kim Kardashian started looking heavily pregnant from the time she was four months pregnant! Kate Middleton is blessed with a slim structure and thus, she looks petite even during her pregnancy. Kim on the other hand is voluptuous and thus is putting too much weight.
Ideal Baby Bump
Ideally, your baby bump should start showing after the 12th week of your pregnancy. This is the time when your uterus expands and grows beyond your pelvic girdle. The amount of your amniotic fluid also increases around this time. If you start showing before this, it is certainly not because you are pregnant. However, if you have had a very difficult first trimester you may start showing immediately after 12 weeks. Many women face very severe morning sickness in the first stage of their pregnancy. This does not allow them to put on too much weight during the first trimester.
Is It Baby Bump Or Fat?
You are obviously not dieting to lose weight during your pregnancy. Naturally, your tummy starts coming out quite a bit. Most women think that it is their baby bump showing and it will all go away after the baby is born. However, sometimes the fat accumulated during pregnancy stays on after childbirth as well. So watch what you eat because your growing tummy may not just be your baby bump.
