when does your baby bump become noticable?

So, I'm almost 15 weeks pregnant, (14w 4d) and I was just wondering when the baby bump starts showing. This is my first time being pregnant and I'm just curious.

When I was pregnant 6 years ago, I started wearing maternity clothes at around 3-3.5 months pregnant (12-14 weeks).

So everyone is different. Don't worry, in no time you'll have your baby bump, and then you'll have the pregnant waddle. I was always told the pregnant waddle is really cute.

By the time I was done, I was as big as a house....

All three of my pregnancies, I've started OBVIOUSLY showing right around 15wks...had a bump before that, but at 15wks you can't mistake it for anything but baby. a lot of it depends on your frame, your height, your baby's position, the placenta's size, how much water, and just plain old how much your uterus sticks forward!

I always have really big placentas with normal sized babies, so it makes my belly stick out pretty early...not to mention that I'm very short (5'2") with a small frame, so there's not really anywhere else for the uterus to go but out, lol.

You'll pop in no time! :-)

Yep i agree as well. I have 2 kid on the 3rd i showd rite away with all three. Im 18wk an look like im 6 or 7 month. I retain alot of water then most people but everyone is diffrent. Have 3 sisters 2 of us show rite away other 2 u would have never knew they were pregnt till 6 to 7 months. I think it depends on how u r blt as well. An i dont mean size. Both my sis that didnt show have largr hips an long tors. Just a thought me an my sister had.

Congratulations :) I'm exact same as you 14 weeks 4 days. Every women and pregnancy is different. With my first baby I had a tiny little bump at 6 months and started to show at 7 months. With this baby.. iv already got a bump. Not extreamly noticable but yeah. Because this is your first baby it usually takes a little longer to pop out.
