Well, if by showing you mean when others notice, not for quite a while. By 18 weeks I was a little thicker but friends still had to wonder and it was my behavior more than my body that tipped them off. I kept rubbing my belly and 1 friend commented that those who were "fat" like her rather than pregnant would never do anything to call attention to their belly like that (not that it was concious). I felt large to me and needed to modify some pants by about 10 weeks but I tend to favor high waisted pants. As for showing where strangers could tell, yeah, 7, maybe six months. At work I was 7 or 8 months because I wear scrubs and they hide a lot. Even so, people were shocked when I told them when I was due.
I remember being kind of annoyed about it at some times. I had some issues with nosebleeds for days at 22 weeks and continually had to remind the medical staff I was pregnant. 1 even wanted to argue with me. Dubiously, "You don't look pregnant."
I am also tall with a long torso. (as for how you'd know this, you'd have issues with fit in regular clothes).
I have a feeling it is going to be sooner this time. I feel so bloated.

I liked to wear tight shirts when I was pregnant the first time, which made it more obvious, but had I continued wearing looser clothing people might not have known until I was closer to 30 weeks.
