Good day everyone.
I am a nursing student. My ultimate goal is to be a travel nurse.
I am happily married for over 12 years and have 3 children: ages 6, 4, and 2. Family is the most important thing in the world and I want to help families work out problems so they do not have to be torn apart.
If your family is as important to you as mine is to me, get the help you need. If you do not like my advice, I respect that but look for someone that works for your needs.
Your family is worth it!

I am four months pregnant, and I am not showing yet. I was just wondering when I should start showing. People told me it takes longer to show if it is your first baby. I am about 5'2'' and I weigh about 130. I have looked at many links, so please don't give me any. I just want to know from personal experience or knowledge. Thank you. (link)

You usually start anywhere between 3 and 5 months... 4 being the average.
I was about 4 1/2 months with my first son but I was thinner with him. I started showing by 3 months with my second son but I had gained a bit of weight and I think that added to the "showing"... in essence... I was showing my chubbiness, not necessarily the baby. I am pregnant a third time and am 4 1/2 months. I only just recently, within the past 2-3 weeks noticed I cannot wear some of my regular pants anymore. I am not sure I am "showing", at least not to most people. I may be showing to myself when I look at my bare belly but most people just see "me" I think. I will probably start really looking pregnant in the next 2-3 weeks.
It can almost seem all of a sudden. The baby will hit a growth spurt or something and suddenly your tummy will kind of "pop out". It may seem kinda, as my son brilliantly says "icky poo" but when you start to feel the baby move, you realize that all that bulge is a living little baby and makes the bulge TOTALLY worth it.
Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy and with your sweet little one.
