Vacation at 20/21 weeks?

Merry Christmas all!

DH and I just booked a trip to Cabo for mid April as our 6yr wedding anniversary, and figure I will be about 20/21 weeks by then.

When did you pop or begin to really show? 

Anyone else go away while pregnant before? This will be a new experience to lounge around in a bikini with a belly! :*)

 Was DS your 1st? I've heard you can show less with a first pregnancy?  Hoping this for me! haha

I started showing about 27 weeks or later with my DD. You will have a great time! You probably have the most energy about that time in your pregnancy. I loved my body more while pregnant, although I was heavier I felt so beautiful pregnant and most people notice the belly rather than any other "flaws" that we think we might have.

Oh!! That sounds so fun!!!!

With my first, I wasn't really showing at all at that time, with my second, I was showing around 1415 weeks. You might have a little pouch, but nothing crazy. Also, you'll have tons of energy at that time. I have never felt better like I do when I'm in the second tri of pregnancy.

We are renting a cabin the first week of may. I think it's the perfect time for a vacation. I didn't start showing until about 20 weeks dd. I had a little ball of a stomach.

I started showing early with my first; around 14 weeks. Second tri is a great time to vacation, your symptoms lesson and you have more energy.

With DS I didn't really pop until 25 weeks.  I flew to Dallas (from SC) at 32 weeks and didn't have any issues.

I just looked fat (was overweight to begin with, sz 14-16) until 20-21 weeks then you could see a distinctive bump.

Yay! That is the perfect time to take a vacation! I went to The Big Island when I was about 22 weeks with DD1. It was great. I was a little more careful when we went hiking and there are some activities we normally do that I couldn't (like ATVs, etc.) but it honestly made the vacation a little more relaxing. 

I started to have a potbelly around 20 weeks, but I think most people thought I just had a big lunch. No big. Just rest your hand on your tummy and people know exactly why you look like you nom-nomed a monster burrito. 

Have fun!

With my first, my husband and I went to Turks and Caicos when I was 21 weeks.  I wasn't showing at all.  I really didn't start to show until I was close to 7 months.  Have fun on your trip!
