Im 17 weeks and so many days. I have a belly but not a big one. I started knowing a difference around 9 weeks. My pants started getting tight but I think it was probably being bloated more then showing. Im a skinny preson so I thought I would be showing alot by 4 months but nope, im not. Lol

my sister is 5 months with her second and shes not showing at all. We know she has a bean in there cuz she found out this past thursday that shes having a boy!! :)

i guess its different for everybody :)

Yes, everyone is definitely different! When I was pregnant with my daughter, I was one of those fairly thin girls who popped out with a big old basketball right away! I work retail, and had a customer comment when I was four months pregnant that I looked like I was due "any day now" which made me laugh! I wasn't laughing when three days before my due date, yes, I was still there, she came back in, same woman, saw me and said, "oh my god, are you pregnant again already?" I had to control myself and calmly let her know it was the same baby.

I was super thin before I was pregnant. I was only 105 lbs. I didnt show until about 6 months.

I started showing at 16 weeks with a bump, but i'm amazed at how i've jumped from 19 weeks to 22 weeks. I have a very obvious bump now, and I actually feel confident when i'm out and about. Its comforting to hear "when are you due?" and "is it a boy or girl?" because I felt like I just looked chunktified before and now people know that i'm pregnant. I was thin before I got pregnant, so I didn't want people to think I was just getting fat, hehe

Hi
I started showing at about four months but people just thought I was fat then my sixth month you could tell I was pregnant and im very petite and my belly still isnt huge and I still dont have stretch marks like youd expect by the sixth month I was a little concerned maybe she wasnt growing fast enough... But the doctors said everyone is different
