I'm 16 and a half weeks and I'm barely showing myself. but my belly is poking out more and my hips and butt have grown some too. i went up one pants size so far. your doctor should be able to tell you if you are gaining the right amount of weight also. my doctor told me the first trimester you should be gaining a pound a week. and he said all that really is, is water and blood and stuff preparing for the baby. this happens in your belly and also in your breasts...so half a pound here, another half a pound here....it spreads out evenly and slowly but surely your belly gets bigger. really small women don't show until their about 6 to 7 months pregnant. but those of us that are not a size 2 (I'm a size 6 now, i went from a size 4 to a size 6 when i got pregnant) we usually show a little sooner, because theres more body fat to add to the affect of looking pregnant. we also tend to have healthier babies too. my doctor said i am gaining weight perfectly so i know I'm not fat. but i am growing, so i feel self conscience about that at times. good luck. just ask any questions you may have to your doctor....he has heard them all and should surely know the answers.

I'm 8 1/2 months now and I didnt really start to show until I was about 7 months maybe 6 1/2. It was just a little though I looked more chubby than prego. Good Luck. By the way I am still wearing my pre-pregnancy jeans just not any of my tight shirts or bras so it all depends on the person.

You don't show with your first pregnancy until your around 5 months. However, the skinny girls (like myself) do start showing a little earlier. I started showing 4 1/2 months. Sooo it does depend on whether your petite or not. Hope that answers your question.

Usually about 4 to 5 months. It Depends on your body and if your a tiny person to begin with usually under 125lbs. Congrats and good luck.

It depends on your body structure and how thin you are, I'm large boned and I could wear almost all of the clothes I wore before I got pregnant tho I had to leave the button undone until I was about six months pregnant, then it was like I went to bed one night and woke up with a basketball in my stomach! So it basically depends on the structure of your body before you got pregnant.

Hmmm, depends on your body type somewhat. I started showing to myself, and feeling it in my clothes, at about 4 months with my first. But others didn't really notice anything till 5 months.
