When did you first start showing?

I really can't wait until my belly start showing that I'm pregnant. I'm on the 9th week and so far I looked like slightly overweight woman with flabby stomach (really, my stomach does get a bit bigger but it's not hard)! This is not the nicest time for me, I'm too fat for my regular clothes and still way too small for my maternity clothes. Actually this is a good excuse to buy new clothes one size bigger lol

    Well, I popped out where it was visible to me and to people who know me well at 13 weeks! I thought it would take at least a month longer than that, since this is my first pregnancy and we've confirmed it's not twins. I've had a couple random people ask me if I'm pregnant, so I guess maybe I'm showing. lol. But I'm not big and huge, just round all in my belly area! I'm in the same stage as you. I can't wear my normal clothes, they're all too tight or too short, but I look ridiculous in the maternity clothes I've borrowed from friends. Well, okay, so I'm wearing maternity pants because they're soooo comfy. I've just been buying longer, cheap shirts to keep my tummy covered. Everyone keeps telling me I'm getting cute, but I still feel like the bump is indistinguishable from FAT! Haha. It's awkward. But I hope you have a happy and healthy pregnancy!!! Enjoy the new clothes!

    I started showing when I was 5 months. I was always on the thick side. I gained weight too but it wasn't for me to be back where I was. I have 2 kids so far and pregnant with another. I'm 8 months now.

    I was about 20lbs overweight when I got pregnant too and I'm nearly 7 months along now. Believe it or not, some people are still surprised when I tell them. I wish I had a more pronounced baby belly to show of..but since I've only gained about 10lbs, there isn't much to show yet...

    First baby and you were thin to start with: month 5 before you show. I looked like myself with a "bubble" even in my 9th month. I was able to wear my pre-pregnancy clothes home from the hospital with baby one. Next baby I was in maternity clothes by month 4. It took me 4 months to get back into pre-pregnancy clothes. I've had 5 babies. It takes about a year for you to get back to normal after your 2nd or 3rd.
