mobile: Is there a "when did you start to show" thread someone can point me to?
If so, ignore this, if not... curious when your PG became clear to others. Mister D would like to wait to share until his b-day which will be 17w.
I don't know/doubt if we can make it that far and still be visibly hiding it.
thanks.

Thanks all, not sure what to expect and I know everyone's different. The gals in my office tend to announce around 15-20 weeks, and I had no clue they we're PG many times, despite being highly alert (PGAL mode) of pregnancies.
I'm 5'8" and at 9w4d today still in normal jeans/pants etc... also tend to wear more loose clothing (tunics etc...) that's are not body conscious, if that makes sense.
I think (obvs?) we'll play it by ear. We've already talked about it possibly not working out for him, and he's ok with that.

I don't know when people started to notice.
At 18 weeks I went to California to see my family, and no one noticed I was pregnant until we actually told them. I wasnt particularly hiding it, but not blantly dressig for it either. My father made a comment like "I thought you were looking a little thick around the middle". Thanks dad.
I thought I was REALLY showing at 20weeks, like I'm not even bother hiding it at work showing. Then at 26 weeks, my co workers over heard me talking I a colleague about being pregnant, and the dress I was wearing made me look huge, and everyone in the office was like "I had NO idea!!!"
Point being, your perception of yourself is VERY different than others are of you. Tell when you want to, not because you feel you have to.

Baby Boy Born 8/22/13
Taking into account that I'm a little fluffy in the middle to begin with (was a size 10-12 pre-pg), and I have a pretty short torso (so, nowhere for baby to go but out)...
DH and I could tell around 14-15 weeks, people who knew me well and saw me every day started to notice around 17-18 weeks, and I got my first random comment from someone who didn't know me between 20-21 weeks.

That makes sense. I feel like I kind of started off fast and have leveled out a little. I haven't gained an alarming amount of weight so I'm not particularly worried about it. But it was harder to hide and I'm getting a ton of, "are you positive there's only one in there??" comments. At least no strangers are rubbing my belly yet! *knock on wood*
BFP#3: 2/9/13 EDD 10/18/17. Team Green for Round 2!
But I work with women who is 18 weeks and unless she is hearing something tight, it's hard to tell she's pregnant
ZOMG! I thought you weren't really around anymore and I didn't want to call you out, but wondered how you've been. Thanks for the congrats, it's been a long journey to get here, but you know that.
