You will notice a difference in firmness too. You can definitly tell. As a matter of fact everyone else was able to tell before I even knew!!

I am 5ft 11 1/2in so your tummy is longer it took some time for me to show. I carried low due to the fact my tummy is long it took a little longer. I can tell you that I felt the firmness really early so I think you should be able too.
Lots of love,

Well I can't say anything about showing to other people but, I think you start to show to yourself early ,and I think you should notice firmness early on. I am 8 weeks and I started to notice the changes at about 6 weeks. I am 5'2" so everything on me is compact, and since I will never get taller you'd expect me to grow outwards to the side when I gain weight ,but instead things just get bigger, so I think that when I really start to show i'll be huge but I hope not. A big pregnant tummy looks like it is hard to work around.
