A lot of it depends on how long waisted you are. If you are short waisted you'll show sooner, probably a little to you by 3 or 4 months or so, to others after 5 or 6 months. If you have a longer waist, you may go into your 5th or 6th month before you can even see it yourself, others may not notice (at least not enough to say anything to you because they're not sure) until 7 months or more.
I have a very long waist (short legs, darn it!) and people couldn't tell until my 8th month. Then they would ask me when my baby was due and would be shocked when I would answer that I was due in about 2 more weeks. I only measured between 23 and 28 cm even 2 weeks overdue. With my 3rd, I showed a bit quicker but never got near 40 cm. He was my biggest baby - with 4 and 5 I was smaller again.
Good luck for a successful pregnancy and healthy baby. Watch your diet - eat healthy and not too much - and you'll look great no matter when you show.

All women show at different stages, many factors play into it. Your current weight and body frame most importantly. If it's your first they say you usually show later since your skin has not been stretched out before. I'm 5'2 size 5 and started showing at about 3 1/2 months and at 4 or 4 1/2 my belly literally popped out over night. Some people show earlier and some later. Were all different.

Everyone shows at different times depending on if they've been pregnant before and their weight during pregnancy. I, myself am 17 weeks, i haven't felt anything lately, and i really haven't started showing yet, as i am a bigger girl to begin with, ( i already had a belly before i was pregnant...) you know? Just wait and your time will come when you'll be showing and you'll wish you were back to the point that you weren't showing... :)

I started showing at 20 weeks.. or that is when some people started to notice me being pregnant.. I could tell that I was a little bigger by 15 weeks by my clothes not fitting as they did before and things like that :) Good luck!

It really just depends on the person. I started to show within a few weeks, but a friend of mine didn't even look pregnant until she was 7 months along.

It depends on your body type and whether or not you've had a baby before. I'm tall and lean, and I'm not showing at all yet (at 3 months). Other women I know with the same body type as me usually didn't show until much later (6 months at times). If you're heavyset (meaning really heavyset), you might never show (you'll just look as though you've gained more weight).
If you've had a baby before, you'll start showing really early (as early as 8 weeks).
It depends entirely on you, your body and the baby of course. There's really no determining it.

I started showing very early, about 8 weeks. I'm having twins, though. With my daughter, I showed at about 5-6 months.

It really is different for everyone because of their original wieght and all that BEFORE pregnancy but I am now 16 weeks pregnant and i'm just starting to see my belly pooch out haha but i'd say between 3- 4 months... when people will start to notice your growing tummy.
