Generally speaking, this will start to happen early in their third month, but there are no absolute rules.

Pregnant belly size is governed to a large extent by the size of a woman's pelvis- if she has a wide pelvic cavity, then the growing foetus can drop down into the pelvic girdle and not necessarily become noticeable until mid or even late term. If, however, she has a narrow pelvis, then the foetus can only grow outwards, pushing the abdominal wall out with it and causing the woman to 'show' sooner. Slimness of physique is no indicator of the size of a pelvic cavity- a very slim woman can have a large pelvic cavity and still not show until quite late on, whilst a less slim one can have a narrow pelvis and start to bulge much earlier. I had a female Biology tutor at college some years ago who was very slim, but went to almost full term without showing at all because her pelvic cavity was so large. On the other hand, my godmother (who, ironically, is a doctor) was also slim, but already looked full-term when she was only 6 months and by the time she really WAS full term, she was so huge she could barely stand!

But belly size is also governed by how much amniotic fluid a woman produces in her womb, and also simply whether she is carrying a big baby or not.

Can you be pregnant if your boyfriend came in you five nights ago now your stomach cramping?

You do not get pregnant in your stomach. If your stomach is cramping it would be something you ate or a virus. If you don't feel better in a day or so, or if you start vomiting or have severe diarrhea, see a doctor.Pregnancy occurs in your uterus, which is much lower in your abdomen than your stomach. It's down in the lower intestine area.
