When did you/will you start to "show"??

I am only like 6 weeks- but am thinking about when I will be showing (We aren;t telling anyone until we are in the all clear-ha- when is that?) so I am wondering? (Sorry if this has been asked before- hopeI am doing thsi right.)

I'm showing now and the top of my uterus is already at my navel (which is more like 18 weeks than 15 I was told!), but in clothes I just look fat.

I was begining to show around 11 or 12 weeks..a little bit of a belly..to the normal naked eye (anyone else but myself or husband) Im sure no one could tell...but to us we could see a bit of a change..
But by week 14-ish there was defin a little bump going on..and now nearing my 20th week..You can defin see there is a belly going on there...I think it depends on your body type and defin if you have had babies before..

I "show" very quickly.  By the time I'm 8 weks I have a swollen belly!  & FOR SURE by 10 weeks it's there!
But I think most people who didn't really know me wouldn't notice til around 12 weeks.

I had a bump around 8 or 9 weeks.  I think alot depends on how you carry.  My little man is right out in front like a little beachball.  Now, when I say I showed at 8-9 weeks, I could tell and DH could, but I am not sure anyone else could.  Others really began to notice around 13 or 14 weeks.

With my first I was about 5 months before I started showing, that is about 20 wks. My second and third before I was 4 months. They say with each pregnancy it's different but after the first it's usually early. Make sure you post pictures when it starts to happen. It's a good way to keep track of your babies growth. Especially if this is your first, it's nice to look back on.

With this pregnancy, I am 13 weeks, and already showing. With my first, I didn't show until 20 weeks.
