Well, I thought I was showing at 18 weeks... Nobody else thought I was until around 25-30 weeks.

Really, I'm at 31 weeks and it's only been in the past week that people can "sorta see" my pregnant belly. Of course, I'm a heavier woman, so that makes quite the difference as well as it being my first. I"m not showing really really though (as in people who don't know me would notice), it will probably be at least another few weeks!

With #1 I was showing around 20wks.
This time it was closer to 27wks before anyone had a clue.

With #1, it was obvious to other people at 25 weeks. For this second time around, it was more like 20-21 weeks, and even before depending on th shirt. I'm slender, if that helps.

20-25 weeks.
i'm overweight and have a very, VERY long torso, so i wasn't expecting to see much until later. but around 22 weeks in maternity tops i definitely looked pregnant.
i am now almost 30 weeks and feel ginormous even though (thanks again to my million miles of torso) i still have about 4-5 inches till my fundus reaches my sternum. :thumb

With number one it was around 20 weeks, same with number 2. This is my third, I'm 16 weeks and I feel like I'm showing, but it kind of looks like chub.
I'm on the thin side.

Immediately! Oh no wait, I just really stopped sucking in my little belly......

Pretty early, really! My belly was popping out a bit at 14 weeks - enough that I got offered seats on the subway. As someone who started out very thin & short-torso'ed, I started showing a bump pretty early.
I'm pretty big at 28 weeks now - in that "WOW, you're big for having 3 months to go" kind of way. :)

I started showing to *me* and DH at about 12 weeks. I'm 16 weeks now and no one outside my family notices yet. I think people are looking at me going "Is she pregnant or chubby?"

I don't know yet. 10 weeks along and still nothing more than a little more gut than usual! I'll let you know when I see it!

I am almost 9 weeks and I have a pouch that I can see but no one else, including DH, can notice it. I hope I have some more time before I pop but I guess it is out of my control :)

I'm only 6 weeks and can't suck in my stomach anymore. It feels tender even if I lie on it. *sigh* I have a feeling this is going to be a long pregnancy.

My pants were too tight with my first baby by about 6 weeks, but I wasn't showing enough for anyone to nitce until about 12 weeks.
It happens sooner and sooner with each baby.
I'm pregnant with my 4th and I'm already in maternity clothes at 7 weeks and I'm very noticable pregnant.

To me/DH, it was obvious around 14-16 weeks, to everyone else, more like 25 weeks or so. That was when I started getting "When are you due?" type questions. I am medium build/height.
I feel like I'm going to show a lot earlier this time around. I can't wait for comfy pants!

With my first I was showing--to strangers, I mean, not just visibly to my nearest and dearest--by about 28 weeks.
This time--well, I'll be 11 weeks Thursday and people are asking.

With my first, I was relatively small to begin with. I didn't start showing (ie, was wearing my "skinny jeans" until about 24 weeks.
With #2, I was in maternity pants at 10 weeks. I was really overweight to begin with, but I was clearly showing by 12 weeks. By 6 months, people were saying "oh, due any day now?"
With this one, I was wearing stretchy pants at 5 weeks, full-blown maternity pants at 7, and now (10 weeks) I'm feeling hugely pregnant and people who know are saying "wow, you're getting big!" The rest are just kind of looking at me wondering if I'm really fat or pregnant.

12/13 weeks I popped. Before then, just a lot of moving of the guts. People started asking about the baby at 18/20 weeks, and I have a lot of comments now.
