Congratulations on your pregnancy! Pregnancy has been the most amazing ride of my life so far, and I have thoroughly enjoyed it. I really hope that you have the same sort of experience as me.
As for when you will show, it is difficult to say. Every woman starts to show at a different time. You have a very similar weight to me, as I was 123lbs when I first conceived. I am now 21 weeks and 4 days pregnant, and have just started to show in the last two weeks. One day, I just popped out! I grew at different rates, each week. Some weeks I would have a big growth spurt, other's I would barely notice a change at all.
At 13 weeks, I noticed that my pants were getting a little bit snug around the waist, but nothing to write home about. When I reached about 16-17 weeks, I started to outgrow my normal tight-fitting clothes, and opted to instead wear looser clothes, with more room for my expanding tummy.
I'm going to include the link to a website that I think you will find very helpful. It's something I have really enjoyed looking at throughout my pregnancy. There, I was able to compare my body size with other women, and see how big they're bellies were, compared to mine. It was an absolute god-send.
I'm also going to include the link to a pregnancy forum that I think you will find interesting. It's full of supportive women with boundless knowledge about these issues. I learnt so much there that I doubt I would have learnt otherwise.
I hope I could be of some help to you!

EVERYONE is different. Some petite woman take 5-7 months, some right away. Hard to tell really. I bet your going thru the fears i had thru my first pregnancy.... i didnt feel pregnant, so everyday i wondered if everything was alright.... welll relax, you will start showing soon....another month or so...and in about 7 weeks, you will feel it move. I love the 5-9 months of pregnancy...i could do with out the first 4 months. I am 21 weeks right now, with number 3

With my first baby I didn't show until I was about 25 weeks along. When I got pregnant I was 105lbs and also 5'5 and I kept wondering when I would finally show...but everyone is different so for you it might be sooner. I had a friend who was pregnant the same time i was and she started showing about 20weeks.

This is my first pregnancy as well, and my fiance and I can tell that I'm pregnant, I'm 14 weeks. No one else can tell that I'm pregnant though. You will probably start showing between 16-20 weeks. This is what I've been told. Good Luck!!

you will start getting your little belly soon. the day you notice it, write it down in your baby book.
i just woke up one morning and there it was. i had to pee really bad, as most pregnant woman do, but it was worse this morning . i just went to move the covers and my hand slide across my belly and i felt it bulging just like a bump across the bottom of my belly.
that was one of the most exciting days i have ever had. i can't describe it but nothing has ever made me feel that way again. i can still feel it as if it were yesterday and it has been 22 years since that happened.
P.S. I WAS ONLY ABOUT , MAYBE 12 WEEKS
good luck with your pregnancy and your new baby. god bless both of you.

It depends. In some women, the fact that they are pregnant never shows and in other women they appear to be very pregnant only within the first 4 to 5 months.
