Skin and Showing
So I have a pretty vain question for anyone who has had a child post WLS. When did you honestly start showing?
Background info: I am 35 yrs old and 2.5 years post VSG. Highest Weight 265 Lowest Weight 130 Bounced back to very comfy 145-150 range. Like many my weight was in my belly and thighs. With all this I can say that I have a reasonable amount of belly skin.
Present Day: I am 18 weeks pregnant with a very active little one. I have been feeling her since 14 weeks. I can see that I am pregnant but others can not. My skin is still a bit floppy around my abdomen and right now I am just curious about others experience.
I remind you that I know this is a vain question and I know I just need to be patient. Just curious if others have experienced this. Honestly if I didn't have a slight waddle others wouldn't know.
Thanks in advance

Before getting pregnant, I was 147lb (5'5") and a size 2/4. No panni, but a poofy tummy.
I noticed a definite "pop" at 17 weeks. It wasn't THAT much bigger than my stomach, which has been super comfy in the stretchy-high-waist preggo pants, but people definitely started to notice. I noticed the baby kicking a few days later.
