Is it normal to "show" this soon?

Question

I'm 13 weeks and 3 days. And for a good 3 weeks now I haven't been able to fit into any of my pants. I was hiding it from my coworkers because I wanted to be in the "safe zone" so to speak, but most of them figured it out weeks ago just by looking at me. I haven't asked the doctor about this yet and my next appointment is in 2 weeks but I don't' know that it's "normal" to show this soon. This is also my first pregnancy and I wasn't thin to begin with. So, my question is, is it normal to show this soon?

It's normal to start showing between 11 and 18 weeks for a first pregnancy, depending on starting weight. You are perfectly normal :) Congrats and all the best xx

i haven't been able to wear jeans in a very long time, since week 5! i'm over weight though, and wear my jeans low, so the pressure was always alot and very uncomfortable. I can't suck it in anymore! So I look pregnant! I'm only 12 weeks! And about 40 pounds overweight tho!

some of it could be bloating, but you absolutely can start showing at 13 weeks. woman usually start showing anywhere from 12 - 24 weeks. it greatly varies with every woman and every pregnancy. because every one is so different. i started showing with my pregnancies at about 12 weeks or so. you definetly could be. don't worry tho, its normal. just eat healthy and exercise and you will gain the right amount of weight for baby.

good luck.
