Re: not showing yet.....
Don't worry, it will happen soon enough. I felt the same way and then all of a sudden I popped..I think around 20 weeks. I am 24 weeks & everyone tells me how big I have gotten.

I didn't really start showing until about 20 weeks. Don't worry it's not unusual.

Everyone is so different.
I started wearing maternity pants at 16 weeks and that is with twins.

Re: not showing yet.....
Totally normal not to be showing. I was about 20 weeks before you could tell I was pregnant.. and even then depending on what I was wearing, people could not always tell ..
I had my first big "pop" at 24 wks...

Re: not showing yet.....
Not showing yet either. I am alsmost 17 weeks. I think it all depends on water weight too. Some days I look in the mirror while getting dressed and think I look really pregnant and the next day I look like I am slightly bloated like with PMS.
Oh yeah, I am not thin, so I think baby has had plenty of room and nourishment within my belly

Re: not showing yet.....
I know how you feel - my whole pregnanct so far I haven't "shown" in the way people expect - and only started wearing maternity at 7 months....now at 37 weeks, I still "hide" it well - I look preggers, just not nine months pregnant....but then again I am tall so I guess it helps me....as long as your dr says you are on schedule thats all you should worry about (mine says screw anyone who obsesses over how "small" i look since i measure out fine!)

Re: not showing yet.....
I am very small framed and about 5 5' and I didn't start showing until about 19/20 wks so don't worry. People still comment on how "little" I am at 22 weeks so be happy that you are on the smaller side!

Re: not showing yet.....
I think I started showing around 20 weeks. But it depended on what I wore too. I can relate. It was so annoying when I felt like I didn't really look PG. Don't worry - I'm sure you'll start showing soon.

Re: not showing yet.....
I'm small-framed and petite as well and in my 16th week. I have a tiny little preggo belly but to everyone else, I do not look pregnant yet. I am however, starting to wear maternity clothes because they're just more comfortable at this point. I'm actually excited to show because at least people will know I'm PG and not just gaining weight . So don't worry, you'll show soon enough.

Re: not showing yet.....
When I was PG with Dominic I did not start showing till almost 20wks. I am also pretty small framed and weighed 115lbs just before I got PG. I only gained 5lbs and then all of a sudden...BOOM. I hit 6 1/2 mos and that was it I gained like 35lbs from then till the end of my PG. I gained 50lbs total..
Becareful what you wish for, lol, I did and I gained more than expeced. But don't worry, especially if this is your first. It takes a lot longer to show with a first PG.

Re: not showing yet.....
I was on the smaller to avg size when I got preg. and I didnt start really showing til I was about 6.5-7 months....

Re: not showing yet.....
i did not show until i was 6 months pregnant...i am also small framed and petite. i think its just how you carry?! it was like i woke up and had a belly. did you work out at all ...did you have tight stomach muscles? if so...that could also be why you arent showing yet...also if its your first baby. I remember going to the OB and him telling me when i was 4 months pregnant (with NO stomach) and he said to me that if this was baby #2 id be showing around this time. I will have to see if he was right when i get pregnant again...congrats and good luck hope this helps.
