It's impossible to say as every woman's body and bumps are different. While some could start showing at 13 or 14 weeks some might not start showing until well after 20 weeks. You are just going to have to wait and see how and and when you will start showing 🙂 xx

H&M, Boohoo and ASOS have some lovely massive floaty dresses that are non-maternity but would definitely accommodate a growing bump in this weather, you’d also be able to reuse them next summer xx

Thankyou

It will really depend, I had to get maternity jeans from about 15 weeks as I had a bump and normal jeans wouldn't do up. I am actually really glad I did as they were so much more comfortable and I could wear floaty tops over them so no one knew.

Id start getting some floaty wrap around tops now & under the bump jeans are less noticeable. You have made it to 13 weeks... you got this! Miscarriage really do taint every pregnancy as you think everything will jinx you have a healthy baby xx

Hi . I'd say around 6 months. But as the weather will be cooling down . Leggings are great as you dont need maternity ones you can just have them under the bump x
