at 18 weeks I had a very slight bump. Looked more like I ate too much ha. I really noticed a change around week 24. I have all of my baby bump photos posted if you want to take a look :)

I weighed 100 lbs before first baby so I started showing around 9-10 weeks and I couldn't hide it by 12 weeks.

For me it was 28-30 weeks with my first and about 18 weeks with my second. Everyone is different! I never felt cute and pregnant though i always felt like a sick whale.

Some woman show immediately but others may not see a change until months in. I know having a bump makes you feel pregnant more so than morning sickness or sore boobs. :-) It really depends on your body, frame, and genetics. Once it happens you'll know it's your belly not boat. I saw a woman on a site who didn't pop until she was 30+ weeks! She was healthy but i couldn't imagine waiting that long.

With my first i didn't see any change until i was around 18 weeks. I found out at 6 was 5'4 120 lbs. For my small frame,then, i thought i would be showing a lot sooner. My clothing got snug at 10-12 weeks.

Most of it was bloating, up until about 16 weeks for both my son and daughter.

I started showing late with my DD. It was probably around 20 weeks before I started showing and I didn't need maternity clothes until around 22 weeks. I'm plus sized, so that's why it probably took me longer to start showing. From what I hear, it takes longer the first time, but less time for future pregnancies (basically, your uterus already expanded the first time around so it expands more easily the following times). So, I expect I'll be showing sooner this time around (I'm only about 5 1/2 weeks right now). My SIL who is very thin, showed around 16 weeks the first time around. She's about 9 weeks along now and is already showing a little this time. It depends on you! Don't worry, you're bump will be there before you know it!!!
