I am 25 weeks and plus size and really with in the last month have started to "show" though all my clothes still fit I just have now the baby bump.
I'm a shade on the taller side 5'9 and wear a 12 typically. I thought I was showing at weeks 18 & 20. But really just looked like a had some bloat. Then at 28 weeks I thought, WOW look at this BUMP. but in reality, it really wasn't noticeable to strangers. It wasn't until about week 33+. Of course my torso is long, so i think the baby has lots of room and thats why I was so slow to show. I haven't put on a lot of weight either- WHICH IS SHOCKING TO ME! I always assumed I'd put on at least 40 pounds.
hm, I'm 5'10" and was a 14 when I got pregnant...I actually lost weight in the first trim, and when I announced my pregnancy @ 4 months at work they were shocked...I could definitely tell, but I think everyone else probably thought I was just gaining more weight, lol Here's a pic of me 5 mos before my due date...I was still able to hide it at this point with my work clothes.

I gained about 10 pounds in the first trimester and I could see a bump around 15 or 16 weeks. I started getting random "congratulations" around 20 weeks.
I was a size 14 before i got pregnant. I really started to show around 18-19weeks. I thought I was showing way earlier than I actually was, but now that I look back at pictures, I didn't really show until then.
ETA: I'm 5 feet tall!
I started showing at 18w6d. Overnight I popped! I was wearing all pre-pregancy clothes the week before and now can't fit in anything without my bella band. I am now 20 weeks and have gained a total of 7 pounds.
I was a 10/12 when I got pregnant. I started to show a little before 20weeks
Thanks for the input ladies....I'm def not showing yet (almost 14 weeks), but am eager to finally have something to show off besides a slightly bloated belly and bigger breasts! I guess I'm tired of the "you don't even look pregnant" comments. I've also just bought my first pair of maternity jeans because I figured it was better to have them before I need them. I've heard so many stories of women popping overnight!

Hey ladies, I know everybody is different, but I'm just wondering when you gals started to show?
I'm 13 weeks now and haven't put on much weight (can still fit in most of my clothes) and am anxious to see visible proof of my growing baby. My Dr. said to expect a bump as early as 18 weeks, but that it could be further along. When did you "pop"?
