I am a little overweight to start with, first pregnancy and curious if this makes a difference as to when you start to "look pregnant".

In most cases it does take a little longer to show if you are over weight but not all. It depends on how you carry. If you are short in stature along your torso chances are you will begin to show by the 4th month but not a lot. If you have a longer torso the baby has more room so you don't show as fast. None the less most people have a slight pouch by the time they are near 5 months.
By the way may you and your little one be blessed.

that was not the case for me, when I was pregnant with my first, I was about 20 lbs overweight, but I started showing almost immediately. By the time I was about 2 - 3 months, people kept asking me when I was due, and I had to tell them that I was only newly pregnant. It was quite funny actually, but the best part for me of showing early, was that it was pretty much all baby ( I had fairly big babies) and I was back in my normal clothes within a week or two after having her.

I'm a little overweight too,and yes,it dose take a little longer to show if your overweight.The way you dress can also change the way you look. If you were lounge pants and big tee then you cant tell. If you were maternity cloths(especially those that fit snugly (panel belly pants) can help you look preggers sooner.

well every pregnancy is different i believe weight has nothing to do with it, because im 3 months and i been showing since like 2.5 months and i know bigger girls then me thats not showing also i know smaller girls at 3 months that dont show... so it depends on how much weight you have gained and if you are having more then one baby..

Usually by the fourth month you will start to really show.

Usually around the third or fourth month but for me it was early early so you never really now!

I would think by the time you're 6 months you'll show

usually it takes longer, if you have extra weight around your belly
If it's mostly around your hips or legs, it doesn't matter so much
