when will i show?

Question

when did all of you girls start showing? and when did you all start buying and wearing maternity cloths ......

Answer 1

i started showing my 6th month. i just looked like i was gaining weight im due april 2 and now im HUGE. but no need for maternity clothes when u can wear ur boyfriends clothes...lol but i just now started and im almost 9 months

Answer 2

I started showing (according to others) around 20 weeks. I'm tiny and I kept my clothes slightly baggy. People only suspected before that because I kept munching on crackers all day long. Every woman is different, so don't be surprised if you show sooner or later! I'm now 25 weeks and bought my first set of maternity clothes. I wasn't in a rush because empire waist shirts are all the rage right now for pregnant and non-pregnant women. I also had a few pairs of pants with elastic waistbands that still fit and probably will fit until I give birth. Since my weight is all in my stomach, I can still wear my jeans if I use the hair elastic trick (loop the elastic through the hole and then secure around the button) and saved money on maternity clothes by simply letting out my other pants a bit.

Answer 3

I'm just barely showing at 15 weeks, my cloths still fit. Some of my jeans I'm wearing a rubber band on, so they are not so tight when I sit down. I could probably fit into maternity pants now, but I don't want to spend the money when summer is coming.

Answer 4

i started showing at around 14 to 15 weeks with my first, around 10 weeks with my twins and around 10 weeks this time. I never did the maternity clothes thing, I just did my regular clothes but a few sizes bigger.sweat pants were my best friend, lol

Answer 5

I started to show at 12-13 weeks and was in maternity clothes soon after. I'm 21-1/2 weeks now and I look like I'm about 7 months!! It all depends on your weight pre-pregnancy, how you're carrying your baby and how big your baby is. I was average pre-pregnancy, but I'm carrying a larger than average baby, so I look HUGE.

Answer 6

First, congrats on your baby!
I am 12 weeks and just now starting to show. Every woman is different though, my mom didn't show until her 5th month with all of us, my sister-in-law started showing in her 2nd month.
As far as maternity clothes I started buying them as soon as I didn't fit well in my old clothes.

Answer 7

With my first I didn't start showing until after I was in the second trimester, somewhere around 20 weeks, when I had my ultrasound. But now I'm pregnant with my 3rd and my pants were tight by the 6th week! I'm almost 12 weeks now and I'm not sticking out, but I look like I've put on some weight for sure!

Answer 8

with my first i was huge at 12 weeks, and that was only on my tummy i didnt put any weight on anywhere else, but im now pregnant with my second and i didnt start showing til 25weeks and although ive got some maternity trousers i can also fit in my normal clothes.it just depends on you and your baby, how much water retention (if any) you get and how much you r eating. sometimes u start showing early cos you've eaten too much and other times its water retention.

Answer 9

straightaway i swelled up, just looked like i'd put on a lot of extra weight. After 3 months i had to be in maternity gear.

Answer 10

with my first pregnancy i didn't show until i was almost 7 months, but i am also very tall so i hid it well. however i am 36 weeks pregnant with my second and i started showing around 4 1/2 months. so it really depends on your body type and if you have already had a baby and everything has been stretched out.
good luck!!
