Just wondering what week people started showing, im 11 weeks and i think i already am. This will be my first :) and im really excited, but im 16 and really nervous so any advice on things would be good.x

 hi with my first bout 18 weeks same with my sec around 18 weeks, baby starts moving out of the pelvic area around 11 12 weeks so should start feeling more bloated or slightly harder but not much from that yet i dont think yet?? just be careful its not weight gain to quick as trust me from 20 weeks onwards you start gettin big and puttin on alot haha im 24 weeks and put a stone on boobs tripled in size haha so the belly haha x good luck x

Hi, this is my first baby and I am now 36 weeks even though I measure 38. At he beginning I was really off food so I lost a bit of weight but still managed to feel bloated. I didn't start showing until I was 24 weeks and even at that I was really small. My boobs hurt like hell at the beginning and they felt huge but funnily enough I've just went up one size. I'm still in the same size tops 12 and I hate maternity tops but I'm in 12 maternity trousers for comfort. I've been eating really well sticking to fruit fish chicken etc (can't get enough water melon) so I think I've been really lucky. Now though I feel huge and I'm waddling cos the baby is head down and it's so heavy! I hope you have a great pregnancy and trust me soon enough you'll be showing. Enjoy your second trmester as I thought this was the easiest, loadsa energy etc xxx

 hi there,i think it all depends on the person i'm 12 weeks with my 5th baby and im already showing,with my first i didn't show till around 19 weeks with my second it was around week 17 with my 3rd i was around14 weeks my 4th around 11 weeks and with this one i ballooned out pretty much instantly. the midwife said it was cos my body knows what its doing (it should by now) so it happens earlier and u do retain more water.i thik it depends on your size and shape,soucouldwellbe getting your bump early xx

How exciting :) I think I was 18 weeks when I started showing a little bit. I'm now 39 weeks and although I have an obvious bump, people still can't believe how close I am to the big day! I'm measuring about 37-38, but it doesn't look like it lol
