How far along did you start showing?

I'm 13 weeks as of today. This is my 3rd pregnancy & today I was told I have a "cute" baby bump. I don't feel bloated in fact I feel fine. My question is why am I showing so early? When did everyone else start showing?

I am 32 wks. This is my 3rd child. I started showing at around 12 wks. I had to purchase maternity clothes & begin wearing them at around 20 wks. I still haven't gained any weight myself, just the baby and in my breasts, lol.--hope that helps

Your uterus is stretched out so you show quicker the more pregnancies you have. Its just like the concept of blowing up a balloon. The first time you blow up a balloon it's really hard and takes a lot of effort but if you let the air out and blow it up again its so much easier and so much quicker. It gets a lot easier to blow up the more you do it because the rubber is already stretched out.

Lol to answer your question it could be just a little at the tip but for the most part it's closed.
