I started showing at 9 weeks. Don't believe everything you hear about how you or your pregnancy should be, and what's normal. People will tell you what happened to them, take it as a grain of salt because everyone and every pregnancy is different. Your midwife/doctor is the one to take seriously, they will know you best.

Different women have different body types, i myself didn't start showing until i was around 28 weeks pregnant. I'm almost 30 weeks now and i still get told i am small for being that far along. I definitely wouldn't worry about showing at 11 weeks, it's no big deal :)
