That really depends on the woman. I was very thin and athletic when I got pregnant with my first son and I didn't start really showing until I was 26 weeks or so along and even then I never got very big. I kind of hated it because I looked like I had eaten too many pints of icecream and gained a bit of weight instead of looking like I was pregnant.
However, I know women who have looked ready to pop at only 15 weeks pregnant with their first child.
If you want a sort of "rule of thumb" I would say early 2nd trimester so around 15 weeks.

This is actually different for everyone. I was 7 months before I starting showing with my first pregnancy. and with my second I was only 4 months.
My sister never really showed... she had a little pouch but she didn't look pregnant at all.

I didn't start showing until i was about 5 1/2 6 months but then it hit me fast. On the other hand my cousin starting showing right away. I think it just depends on the person and there body type.

I am 5'2" tall and weight at 110 lbs. before conception. But at 2 months and a half I was at 118 lbs and all ready showed. I didn't over-eat or stop my daily activities. This is my first pregnancy and my doctor finds every thing
perfectly normal. I guess every body and every pregnancy is different. You can't expect similar results to
other people. As long as you and your baby are healthy.
You shouldn't be too worried.

Around the 20 week mark, although everyone's different. I had a friend who did not show until she was in her 7th month, but most people I know started showing around 20 weeks.

you may need to wear loose pants before 4 months because of bloating constipation etc. but it is only around 12 weeks that the uterus peeks over the top of your pelvis and begins to expand outwards. I needed actual maternity clothes around4.5 months cause my big and baggies hung funny and just looked awkward. maternity clothes made a difference in my outward body shape so I thought they looked better...more comfortable too.
