I’m in a similar situation, whereby I don’t feel as though I need the seat and as I’m not showing at the moment, I don’t want to be judged if I wear the badge but don’t have a bump.
Stale alcohol and cigarette breath is enough to set me off and I have to get off the tube before I faint or throw up.
I’m only 8 weeks at the moment and didn’t think I’d need the badge until a few months in, but I’ve seen women who are much small than me also not showing, wearing the badge and I think it does works. If only to make everyone aware that its not ok to push and shove. Thank you TfL for getting something right.

I have so far fainted (badge free) standing on the overground, and fainted (with badge) in a queue. Not fun. I do feel like I’m being judged by people who look for a bump and then glare at me but this is when I really need that seat.
I’m generally very slim and fit and don’t mind standing so it’s all a bit alien to me.

I found it useful to wear one because I was pregnant during winter both times and it can be hard to spot a bump under a bulky winter coat. I didn’t do it to make people to give up their seats on public transport (that should be good manners really), but to make sure people didn’t barge into me.
