When should you start showing?

I'm 8 weeks and for the past 3 weeks I haven't been able to exercise as much as I normally do due to morning sickness and fatigue. But I'm already noticing a pooch in my belly (other's have noticed too). I'm a little self cautious of it bc I didn't think you were to start showing until after 3months pregnant? I'm sure if fat or baby (or maybe a little of both?) What are all of your experiences with how big your baby bump got and when?

    Everyone is different, there's no right or wrong time! You're probably just bloated because that's what happened to me. No one could tell I was bona fide pregnant until I was about 24 weeks but I definitely had a belly before then. There's a phase where you don't look or feel pregnant, just chubby lol. It passes tough! I'm six feet tall so that's a factor too.

    It depends on how you carry and how tight of clothes you wear! A lot of people just thought my waist was getting big for no reason until I was about 5 months...lol.

    There is no right and wrong time to start showing... I didn't start to show till about 6 - 7 months, so till then it probably just looked like I was putting on some weight...
