how far along in your pregnancy do you start showing?

You start to show in pregnancy at 12 to 16 weeks If it's your first pregnancy you'll probably start to show between 12 to 16 weeks. But this initial bump is not from the baby. In fact, at 15 weeks, the average fetus is 4 inches long, or about as large as an orange.

At 5 weeks pregnant, baby is the size of an apple seed. Yep, your embryo is now measurable—though at week five of pregnancy, it's a wee 0.13 inches from crown to rump (a.k.a. head to bum)—and baby's gearing up for much more growth. In fact, in the next week they'll almost double in size. Grow, baby, grow!

At about 13 weeks, you may see a small bump. If you're already a mum, you may start showing sooner. This is because the muscles in your womb (uterus) and belly may be stretched from your previous pregnancy. In the early days of pregnancy, your womb is the shape of a pear.

If you're expecting twins or higher-order multiples, you could also possibly start to show before the end of your first trimester. Your uterus must grow larger to accommodate more than one baby. So whereas someone expecting a singleton may not show until after 3 or 4 months, you might show as early as 6 weeks.

In other words, at 10 weeks pregnant, you may be just starting to show. That's because your ever-growing uterus is now slightly larger than a grapefruit. But don't worry if you can't quite see your bump at 10 weeks yet — you will soon enough. Remember that pretty much anything is normal when it comes to your baby bump.
