Congrats! I think I showed at around 4 months, depends how 'big' you are, if you are very slim, could show quicker I suppose!

About two seconds after the line appeared. Or at least that's how it seemed! Was wearing maternity jeans with a stretchy waist by six weeks.

4.5 months with Jess

same as Tex111 this time round!

Chandra · 12/10/2005 19:32

around 6-7 months, up until then I was using my normal trousers. Now, the last month I made up for the rest of the pregnacy!

Dana · 13/10/2005 08:06

About 4-5 month with DS before other people could see that I was pg. This time I am 6 weeks and my trousers feel tight already. I am afraid that people in work will guess before the 12 weeks when I am planning to tell them. So you're not alone .

sweetkitty · 13/10/2005 08:47

With DD about 5-6 months before you could say for definite I was pregnant.

This time probably longer started wearing maternity jeans last week at 26 weeks, just looked like I had a bit of a stomach before that but now I seemed to have grown a bump overnight.

hester · 13/10/2005 08:57

About 10-12 weeks. Got my first seat offered on the tube at 13 weeks - the shame! This is my first, too

I was huge first trimester, but it settled down and I went through second and third trimesters completely average.

goldenoldie · 13/10/2005 13:25

10 weeks - twins!

Lizzylou · 13/10/2005 13:32

Last time gained weight initially, but no bump until around 4/5mths, this time round very quickly!
Feel huge already and I am only 20 weeks, I went into my old smaller, maternity clothes from around 12 weeks..

munz · 13/10/2005 13:33

erm really noticably over the past 3 weeks - althou the girls in work said my tummy had rounded at about 12 weeks - i'm now 19+4. only just in my larger sized normal clothes! apart from that some maternity.

Diddle · 17/10/2005 14:27

well i am showing now and I am 6 wks, I have been asked by 2 people int he ast week if I am pregnant. I have had 2 previous pregnancies, recently, in the last 9 months, both ended in miscarriage, so I my body started to store some padding from both of those pregnancies and now is toring even more. I don't fit in any of myt rousers, only elasticated waist ones, and I am seriously considering buying maternity trousers, already, just to be comfortable. was hoping i wouldn't be showing yet, as we're not telling anyone until we really have to, think that migth come sooner than we wanted now my belly has decided to "relax"

ChaCha · 17/10/2005 16:16

At around 6-7 months although I had was already in elasticated waists and maternity wear before then.
