During my last pregnancy my first belly shot was at 15 weeks, but I really wasn't showing. Now I'm 15 weeks, and I totally look pregnant. Of course, I am starting off 20 lbs heavier than I did last round, but if you really take a look you can see that the belly jets straight forward. The chub doesn't go to the sides or around to my back. It's definitely a baby bump, but it's basically my ENTIRE belly that's big, not just the lower region.
Compare for yourself.

At our New Year's party at Mark's grandparents' house, Mark came up behind me to give me a hug and looked down at my belly. He seemed surprised at how big I look already, but I've been looking at it from that angle all along so it was funny to me. :) Every once in a while I think I can feel the baby kick, but as I pay closer attention I realize it's just my own pulse through my abdomen. However, just last night I thought that I actually felt a kick...it was just once and I'm pretty sure it wasn't a gas bubble. We'll just have to wait and see how soon I feel it on a regular basis.
