Plus size mommas... when did you start showing and your stomach started to get firm. I'm a ftm size 18, 18 weeks starting to pop out alittle at the top of my stomach and I still don't believe I've felt my baby move yet. Just wondering...

Thanks ladies. Everybody ask me if I feel the baby yet and I don't think I have and they'll say oh you probably have and just don't know.  Then they'll tell me it feels like little butterflies and I don't think I've felt that yet

I'm 25 wks with my first and only just the start of a bump. I've had people ask me am I only joking that I'm pregnant. Normally I'm a size 18 so I think the extra padding has hidden any bump so far! Lol

I started really showing around 24 weeks, I'm 37 now and I blew up like a balloon. The top part of my stomach got hard and I still had a tiny pooch at the bottom. I had what u call a b belly

I think it depends on the person. I started to show about 15 or 16 weeks. I am almost 37 weeks now. People noticed really quickly with me. This is my fourth pregnancy. Any plus size mom's having a c section?
