If I am getting a "stomach" at 15 weeks preg, will I be huge at 38 weeks?

Question

I'm 15 weeks pregnant and you can tell I am pregnant...at least I can. Does that mean I'll be huge by the end?

Answer 1

around this time is about normal to start showing but if you are unusuallly large i would have them check at your scan if they already havent to see if you are having twins.

Answer 2

You might get big fast and stay at that size for a while. With my 2nd, I got a belly fast, but still small enough to wear my regular clothes (using a rubberband on my jeans) until 7.5-8 months. Then I got HUGE!! I'm currently on my 3rd pregnancy and HUGE!! I think I started showing the second the sperm hit the egg. I'm scard to death I'm just going to keep getting bigger and be miserable by delievery!! I'm only 23 weeks and I swear I'm bigger than some girls that are full term! Anyway...everyone is different. Good luck!!

Answer 3

I'm just over 16 weeks and I have a belly too...None of my jeans fit anymore. I've gained about 12 lbs and I'm thinking that I'm going to be massive at the end too. But, from what I've been told, if you gain a lot early on, the growth may slow as you get farther along and vice versa. So there is still hope that we won't look like elephants at the end! Good luck

Answer 4

I started showing early as well, I am now 32 weeks and look like I am ready to deliver now. Every womans body is different but most of us are huge at 38 weeks so yes you will probably be huge as well.

Answer 5

Hi there! congrats! (I miss pregnancy) anyway, it is perfectly normal to have a belly at this stage already. Depending on your diet, and habits during pregancy, you should be an average pregnancy size. (meaning your not going to be so big you cant fit through a door). However if you eat unhealthy (heaping piles of fattening icecream everynight before bed) Then you are going to be overweight and there will be a chance your baby will be over average size. Eating the right foods and staying as active as you can (you dont have to exersize in front of the TV) will help you lose the weight after birth as quickly and easily as you gained the 'baby-weight'. Good luck! Angela

Answer 6

no. i was barely showing till i was 6 months. by 40 weeks i was huge so the opposite is happened to me and i gave birth to an 8 and a half pound baby boy. now with my daughter i showed early and i wasnt that big at 39 weeks she was 7 pounds 7 ounces

Answer 7

I started showing around 19-20 weeks, but that was only because I always had a slight tummy. Before that, i just looked like I had enjoyed myself at a buffet! But don't worry about the weight gain and the tummy. You can always lose the weight. Just worry about your baby's health and how happy you'll be when he/she is born! Congratulations!

Answer 8

I started to show at about 15 weeks and by the end of my pregnancy I felt like you could see me from outer space, but my son was worth every pound (all 48 fo them)

Answer 9

my daughter is 13 weeks pregnant and she has a belly has well I'm hoping she wont get any bigger now for a while or we are gonna have to roll her about lol she is only small as well under 5ft so i think that makes a difference good luck x x

Answer 10

Everyone puts on weight differently when they are pregnant. I didn't "show" until I was six months with my first daughter. My second pregnancy consisted of TWINS, so people assumed I was full-term at six months. Every pregnancy affects your body differently, no matter how many are inside!!

Answer 11

i'm precisely 38 weeks today and that i'm having an same adventure. i think moves like the infant is transferring somewhat of the kicks and punches i exploit to sense. the infant is in basic terms understanding of room.
