When did you start to show when pregnant?
I'm not that far along, at all, but as I was getting ready for Church yesterday, DH said "Your trying to keep your pregnancy a secret for a few months, right? Then you may want to wear a different dress." He was so right. I changed... but still got afew looks and even some smiling comments about how I was "Glowing". Yeesh!

The morning after conception :P
I needed stretchy pants by 8 weeks with all of them. With #4 I couldn't wear most of my pants by 6 weeks, but by 8 weeks I could not wear a single pair.

About 3 months with both; although, I started gaining weight in the first 2 months. You could clearly tell I was pregnant aby 3 months and my panties even started rolling down at that point too.

10 wks with #1, 7 wks with #2. I am almost 6 foot and thin build, so it is hard to hide anything. I just finally gave up and embraced it!

I was around 16 weeks with my first and 5 months with my second. I'm 10 weeks now and not showing, but I'm also pretty fluffy.

about 4 months with #1
about 15 weeks with #2
I was in maternity jeans at 11 weeks with #3
I grew out of my normal jeans one week post ovulation, my next size up jeans 2 weeks post ovulation, and 4 days after I took the test at 5 weeks, I had to wear maternity. Ive gotten to the point where I wont need a test to know...

I don't feel as bad now! I started showing before I found out I was prego. I was laying in bed snuggling with my DS and looked at my belly. Where the heck did that come from?? I pulled out my Leslie Sansomes Walk away the pounds abs and did it two days in a row and felt kind of sick afterwords. Made me think something was up. Instead of shunning my belly, now I'm embrasing it. I still have to kind of hid it from my Children. I don't want word spread like wild fire.

With my last one, it was getting obvious rather early. I had a distinguishable bump by 12 weeks. By 16 weeks, I was in maternity pants. I never got all that big but since (at that time) I was so slim, my belly was really protruding from the start. Plus, I'd been pregnant many times before.
Thinking back, with the very first one I hardly looked pregnant at all at 27 weeks. I had only just then needed elastic waist pants and gained maybe 10lbs.
Then with my next two term pregnancies I got enormous but not until I was past 20 weeks or so. I got huge fast. I went from barely looking pregnant to, "How many are you having?!" comments in just 7 or 8 weeks. my size 6 body grew to a 50something inch waist by 41 weeks/birth with my daughter. I don't know why, I had only gained about 30lbs the whole time and had a 10lb baby. I was just HUGE.
The last pregnancy happened a year after weight loss and a tummy tuck and A LOT of working out and trimming down. That's why I had a little bump by 12 weeks and a very obviously pregnant tummy by 16.

With DS1 - 20 weeks
DD1 - 16 weeks
and this time I had someone notice at about 8 weeks (although, I have no due date right now so that is a guess)
The thing that confuses me is that I am actually losing weight and my pants are falling off of me so I don't get why I look preggo already - guess that just happens after 2? :)

I don't remember exacts, but I know I gained everywhere but the tummy first.
Maybe around 5 mos with DD, then 4 mos for DS.
