Q: What Is the Soonest That You Can Show?

Hi I am about 7 weeks pregnant and in tight shirts it kinda looks like I am showing. My tummy was flat before. It seems to early to show so maybe I am just bloated. Its just a tiny bump but it definately looks like a pregnant belly. Did anyone else show early?

I showed really early . Around 2, 2 1/2months and was big throughout my pregnancy. I looked like I was 6 months preggo when I was 4 months and was huge by the end. Lol

I didn't show with my first pregnancy until about 5 months. Nothing not even a bump. Now I am only 6 weeks and my clothes are getting tight. I think it depends on lots of things.

Every body is different. I am a person that shows early. With my first son I was in maternity clothes at 3 months. I am at 3 months now and now I am getting a little tight in my clothes now. Some people show right away, some dont show till 6 months or more. Its weird. I also had too much fluid lst pregnancy so you never know.

With my first full term pregnancy I had 2 little stretch marks at 1 1/2 months. How cute!!! I was beginning to show at 3 months, and def showing by 4 months. My jeans were too tight long before 4th month though.

Showing??
Wow! I'm glad i'm not the only one that started showing early. My clothes started fitting tight @ 6 1/2 wks. I'm 13 wks now - I have a friend that's 5 mos & i'm a little bigger than her!! Yes, everyone is different! I had a premie @ 23 wks and was wearing my size 5 pants!! Good luck!! When are you due?

Usually if you are showing that early it is bloat, unless it is not your first pregnancy. I didn't start showing or gain weight until I was 23 weeks.

I was going to say that my pants are a little tight, but it's just bloating. I have gained one pound and am 11 weeks.

(as an aside little funny... My boyfriend weighs himself today and announces that he has gained 5 "sympathy" pounds. I told him not to get too sympathetic, as he is already gaining 5 times the weight I am. Lol)

No, this is not my first - actually my 5th - what does that have to do with how soon you show?? Cuz i've only gained 2 pounds (i'm 13 wks) but my clothes doesn't fit - well I just don't button my pants - I tuck the buttons in...
