Every woman is different AND every baby is different. You might show early or late. I started showing at about twenty weeks. It just depends of the circumstances, genetics, eating habits, and all other sorts of things. I know it is hard with your first to watch your body suddenly become bigger and to see yourself stretched, but remember the gift at the end of the road is worth it. I cried and cried at the beginning of my pregnancy when I first gained weight, but now I just look forward to seeing my son and feel loving towards my pooch. Remember to eat healthy and do not diet.

You'll gain more weight later. Usually, the stomach doesn't show until the second trimester. However, I wanted a healthy baby so bad, I ate every couple hours. My stomach got so big at 34 weeks of pregnancy, my gynecologist thought that the baby was getting too big before he was due. I ended up doing another ultrasound to see the weight of the baby and realized that the baby only weighed 5 lbs and 11 oz. My thighs were so big, I had trouble driving. At 36 weeks of pregnancy, my son decided to come early.

Each person is different. Know that the weight gain is mostly the baby especially if you eat healthy and exercise. I gained 32 lbs with my first child and I felt like a fat cow but when he was born he weighed 10 lbs and 15 oz. If you are really worried I would suggest talking to your doctor.

With a first baby you may not show until late. I was quite thin before I was pregnant with my first baby. I didn't show until around 21 weeks. I noticed it but nobody else did. In fact, when I was 32 weeks I could pass for not being pregnant. (my daughter was born big and helathy) My sister showed from 14 weeks. I guess we are all different.
If your doctor says you are healthy and you are eating properly then there should be no problems. Just wait it out.

Everyone is different. If you are smaller framed and thin you will probably show sooner than someone who is average or overweight. Typically, by about 4 months most women have a bump.
Personally, I am average sized and with my first baby I showed around 14-16 weeks. With my second it was a bit earlier...and with this one, I showed very obviously by 10 weeks...but that is not baby...it is fluid, water retention and gas!
Good luck and Congrats!

Every body starts to show at different times. I'm a smaller person and I showed early in all three of mine. You shouldn't feel fat yet. 2 lbs is nothing. Wait until you're 9 months!

With my first, I started showing at about 16 weeks, but I felt fat and bloated around 11 weeks. Good luck

I didn't show until I was 6 months. Until them I just look like I had some pudge on my tummy and my *** got bigger. I gained 20lbs in total. Everyone is different. I know some that show right away. It all depends on your body type. As long as you are not depriving yourself of food you will be fine. You don't have to eat a lot. just snak of carrots and things that have good fat like organic peanut butter, when you feel hungry.

You probably will not begin to show until about 15 weeks. Good luck!
