It depends on your body. I honestly stay well hidden until about 5-6 months the all of a sudden the baby leans forward and pop! My sister, and thinner than me, shows around 15 weeks with a little bump.

Well this is my third and all pregnancies are dofferent with my two boys I did not show until 25weeks and I just woke up one day and the belly was there.  Now with this one which is my girl I am 19 weeks and did not tell anyone until a week ago and it looks like I am six mobths pregnant because I am short and small frame.... again woke up and belly was there. It has always taken me three months or so to tell because I have had 3 miscarriages and they all left right after I made the announcement in the first trimester. But this is the last if God says the same and my husband gets snipped. Lol.... Good luck and god bless you on your journey with your little bindle of joy......

I'm 4 weeks on the dot too!!! I started showing with my first at 14 wks. My second I still had baby weight from the first baby because I got pregnant when my first was 12 weeks old. So I would say about 17wks I started showing. Right now, I KNOW it's just bloat, but it looks like a bump. Just ready to get to the stage where it's not bloat and it's BABY :)

Congrats on your pregnancy!

Thanks ladies, this really helps! Im excited, but nervous at the same time. Im waiting to get through most of the first trimester before we tell anyone other than my mother. Just playing it safe i guess. When did you make the announcement???

this is my first and I'm pretty petite ... 5'5" and 125lbs ... I don't start looking pregnant until like 20 weeks but I did get a little belly around 17 wks but it didn't look like a pregnant belly it Judy looked like s little beer gut lol ... I think it all depends onyour build and how big your baby is ...

I'm on my third and I started around 10 weeks. People really noticed at 15 weeks. With my first I was like 5 months. Each person and each pregnancy is different.

Well, me and my hubby begin to notice my belly around week 9 (which might be just bloating),but now im 14weeks exactly and my belly is popped out for two weeks already.
so if i wear something tight ppl are able to see it and friends they are touching my belly already, is that weird? Haha Anyway, its my first and im surprised its showing this early

Week 15 is when most new mommies really begin to show.  That's when you finally look pregnant and not just have people wondering if you are or just putting on a little weight. If you've already had kids you could show a little earlier and some people show later. How your body is built has a lot to do with it too.

Anywhere after weeks 15-20 you'll begin to show. No two bodies are alike so maybe around week 15 or not until a bit after week 20. I'm 31 w & 4 d, nd up until now she's really poking out aside the fact that I make tiny bellies :)

My first child I started showing around 4 months about 15-17 weeks. That was almost 7 years ago tho so I don't remember 100%. But I'm currently 9w2d & still nothing yet. Just bloated every now and then.
