I was just wondering when most people started to get a belly, more noticable that you were pregnant?

well, no one can really tell yet, except my close friends and anyone I hug. I'm 18 weeks and just starting to kinda pop out. I'm still wearing my regular jeans with the occasional rubber band trick for comfort. But still if you saw me on the street, you wouldn't think I was pregnant. But for me it's a huge difference!

What is the rubber band trick?

livedea..im the exact same. I am only 15 weeks and looking at me you can't really tell. Im still wearing my jeans also but sometimes I just wear a long enough shirt to unbutton them, lol . My stomach is surely not like it was before but not round enough for people to know right away. I kinda like this stage cause the transition is slow. It's starting to seem more real to me now.

The rubber band trick is when you put a rubber band through your button hole on your jeans and secure it around the buttone so that you have more room in your pants.

I'm living by the rubber band trick right now! I was unbuttoning my jeans but then my zipper would start to go down and next thing I'd know my pants were slipping and my underwear was hanging out! Try the rubber band! If you need it, it works!

I could tell myself around 12 weeks. I thought I looked very pregnant. My close friends and family could kinda tell at around 18 weeks. Then I woke up on Christmas morning and overnight I SERIOUSLY popped at about 21 weeks!

I'm excited to try the rubber band trick... I thought my jeans were gone for 9 months!
