I had a really good bump at 13 weeks, I couldn't fit my regular clothes by 8 weeks. This was despite being very sick, I was a stone lighter at 6 months than when I fell pregnant.

It varies from person to person, I'm short and was a size 8/10 pre pregnancy so I suppose there was no where but out for baby to go but out.

I am 9 weeks today with my first and I have had 2 people at work already comment on my bump coming along nicely.... I was a size 10 and had a little podge between my hip bones (which were visible!) and now I am a very round shaped 12 with a rock hard Bump... I have already moved into Maternity Jeans as didn't see the point in buying my normal ones in a size up just to swap to Maternity ones eventually anyway!

I didn't start showing really until around 5 months. I was wearing my high waisted jeans until 4 and a half months, and my normal size bottoms (leggings and tracksuit bottoms), until around 7.5 months. My normal size tops fitted all the way through.
I just got some normal bottoms and a few dresses in the next size up. (Didn't bother with maternity clothes at all as didn't need them).

'Showing' to other people about a week or two ago, at 16 weeks. Before I apparently just looked fat to people who didn't know me and when I was in a tight dress Hmm. Thanks a lot.

But my jeans and trousers didn't fit me anymore around the waist at from about 11 weeks. I had to leave the top button undone. Blush

I was in maternity wear from about 10weeks for comfort but I think it's only really since about 22weeks I've started to look pregnant rather than just bloated. 29weeks now and I find my bump seems smaller some days, anyone else get that? I keep getting told I'm "neat" probably because I am tall but I feel huge.

1st pregnancy I was about 22 weeks, 2md pregnancy about 14 weeks, 3rd pregnancy (ended in mc) I was outta my clothes by 7 weeks and people who knew me well could see a bump but to people I didn't know it just looked like a bloated pot belly! Currently 4+6 and constantly very bloated!

1st pregnancy with twins - started showing at 8 weeks though most people couldn't tell and they told me at 12 weeks like I just looked like I'd eaten a big meal but definitely got a clear bump now at 19 weeks.

I'm 26 weeks with no2 and popped overnight last night. I looked like I'd eaten too many pies for a few weeks prior to this but not pregnant.

I was really bloated from around 10 weeks. Actual bump from week 16/17

I could see a slight bump at 22 weeks, but no-one else noticed until about 28 weeks both times. My first baby was a big one, so I feel lucky I didn't show earlier.

I'm tallish and slim, so I think that helped.

I looked fat till 28 weeks, now people can tell. I'm only a size 14 but I've never had big bumps till the end of pregnancy really

I'm anywhere between 7 and 9 weeks with the chance this may be a mmc and have a bump I can no longer hide already!

With my DD I didn't have much of a bump until 26 weeks, this time I'm 10 weeks and just look a bit fat at the moment - hoping that I can make it to 20ish weeks before I show! Once I popped the unsolicited advice and touching started not sure I could cope with an extra two months this time round with wanting to throat punch someone!Grin

I started showing around 14 weeks and it is my first. I know its very unusual to show that early with your first baby.
I was fine about it but now everyone is commenting it makes me upset I'm 18 weeks now.
I have one friend who is due 3 weeks behind me who keeps commenting how big I am and sending me bloggers pictures who are 6months and not showing. I am a size 8 normally I haven't put on weight anywhere except bump and boobs.
I keep telling her everyone is different but it's starting to play on my mind but may be its the pregnancy hormones that are making me bust into tears! Smile

At about 16 weeks I looked like I was growing a 'pie baby' to people who didn't know. The bump suddenly popped out from about 21 weeks and now at 24 it's very obvious!
