And when did you start showing with baby #1? With A I was barely showing at 15/16 weeks, now I am 4 weeks and there's already something there. I know a lot of it is bloat, but I don't know how long I can hide this for!

I'm not pregnant, but with LO I showed really early (family members could tell at 10 weeks, strangers around 14!!!). Next time I don't want to tell work until way later, so I'm curious for the responses to this!!!

Before my mc I was ready to move into maternity clothes by 6 weeks. I probably wouldn't have made it past 8-10 weeks.

With baby2, I was bloated until week 7 or 8. Then I shrunk down because of morning sickness and actually lost weight. By the time I was 20 weeks, I could still easily hide my pregnancy if I tried. Just shortly after that were people able to really notice.

I had students asking me...no lie....A MONTH AGO....if I was pregnant! I was like "Um no, I'm just still fluffy from the first one I had...10 months ago..."
I'm not going to be able to hide it very long.

First one, I had a good bump at 14 weeks... I'm worried about #2

@Bao: I need to try and hide it until I can tell my boss at the end of August! AHHHH!

With the first one I started showing around 15 or 16 weeks. With my second it was a little earlier, but I wore flowy big shirts. With this one, baby 3, I've been showing since about 13 weeks. I look more pregnant as the day progresses too.

I would say I was starting to show a little by 14 weeks with DD. With this one I am almost 15 weeks and I am showing a LOT. I am getting really strange looks!

I started showing at 20-21 weeks with my first. I thought I was showing at 6 weeks with my second but DH said it wasn't obvious until 11-12 weeks.

It won't let me add pictures from my phone for some reason but from the side I don't look much bigger now (at 11 weeks) then I did with my first, but the shape of my belly is making it more noticeable in clothes already.

for me it was about the same --- started really showing around 20 weeks. before that it was easy to hide with loose fitting clothing

Maybe it'll let me post the picture from my computer...technically the picture on the left is 12 weeks with my first, but I didn't have an 11 week picture...

@matador84: your cuteness kills me! I can't wait to see a tiny lady with long hair and a bump again! You were beautiful!
I'm not pregnant, but I am curious to see the answers here because when we do get pregnant, I want to hide it for awhile (as long as we can, really).
I was great weight and shape previous to getting pregnant with #1, and I was undeniably showing at...20w?
When I get pregnant with #2, I'll be even more fit and thinner than I was with #2, so maybe I'll show earlier? Or maybe because my abs are more toned this time around, I won't pop as early? It could go either way!

with my first I could have (and did) hide it until 25 weeks. this time i started showing a little at 10 weeks, and I'm 15 weeks and starting to be pretty obvious. I could wear a super loose top and kinda hide it I think, but not for much longer.

With my first, I didn't have any sort of a bump until around 23 weeks and wasn't definitively pregnant looking until around 28 weeks. I'm nearly 11 weeks now and am not really showing yet at all. I'm a bit thicker through the middle already but no hint of a bump yet. Which reminds me, I probably should start taking bump photos one of these days.....

@TurtleDoves: you are so sweet! I am going to have to incorporate DS into my bump pics this time around!

I'm 17w now and I think I've moved on from looking fat to pregnant. With our 1st, I didn't look pregnant until like week 23 or so.

With my first I probably got a bump around 20 weeks but I didn't look obviously pregnant until closer to 30 weeks! This time it was totally obvious at 18 weeks!

@TurtleDoves: I had a six pack when I got pregnant this time around and from the front you can still see the top two; having abs hasn't made my belly less noticeable, it just looks different.
