Should I be be showing already?!

in 1st Trimester
Okay, this might not be classified as "showing" but I am already noticeably bigger!! The few people that know that I'm pregnant keep saying "aww I see your little bump!" Ermmmm.....I shouldn't be!! Right?! Everything I've read or people that I've talked to say the they didn't show any noticeable changes until at least 3 months, sometimes more!! I've been wearing baggier shirts and am already having to keep my pants unbuttoned!! I attached some pictures, the first one is me at 5 weeks, and the next it me at 9.5 weeks! And if I'm going to be completely honest, I was sucking in as much as I could on my 9.5 week picture!! :-/ I have been eating pretty healthy and my main pregnancy craving has been apples!! I don't know if I am over reacting or what, this is my first pregnancy and I just don't know what to expect!

    We actually just broke it to the MIL last night, and she actually tried pulling the 'Oh I figured you were. You looked bigger but I didn't want to be mistaken.' She actually had an odd look when I tried explaining it was just bloat.

    At 6 weeks-ish, my tummy had come and gone a few times now to bloat alone. Aggravating when it comes to fitting into work scrubs and my jeans.

    It's bloat! When ur a naturally pretty small girl (like u look) the bloat will give u away almost instantly in early pregnancy!
    My sister had her suspicions with me the day before I even did my test as she said ur usually 'flat' stomach wasn't flat lol!! She was right lol I was pregnant!
    Dam the bloat ;o)

    Bloat is the worst. I'm 7 weeks and in the morning my stomach is flat, but at night I look 4 or 5 months!

    I started showing already but nothing other than bloat until a couple weeks ago. I'm 13 weeks now and my bloat does not under any circumstance go away.

    I did notice a lot of weight gain and fluctuation in my weight throughout the whole first tri

    Yep, this. I am 15 weeks now and I now have a noticeable bump that is not bloat. It started about a week ago and now people are commenting when I wear tight shirts like "ohh... you are pregnant" before everyone I told said they could not tell but I was certain all that bloat keeping me from buttoning my pants was making me look fluffy. It went away around 9-10 weeks and came back baby bump style with a vengeance.

    definitely bloat - when i wake up in the morning i'm still pretty flat but by the end of the day (and after drinking about 100+oz of water) i am starting to pop out a bit.  it's definitely cut down on my pant options quite a bit - what fits in the morning can feel like a torture device by evening!  
    LOLed at you siggy for like 3 minutes straight. haha
