I just look like I'm bloated or have gained some weight in my belly? I can feel the baby moving a lot though. I'm not fitting into my pants, but would look ridiculous in maternity clothes? But, when I lay on my back I can see a bulge of where my uterus is and it's about up to my belly button and round. I do have a long waist and am 5'6" and originally weighed 117 and have gained 4pnds at my last appt. I have my ultrasound appt. this wed. too. Could my uterus not be growing right? Is something wrong? 1st pregnancy by the way, Thanks!!!!!!!

my babys momma was just like you she had a very small belly at 9 months and the only thing wrong with the pregnancy was she had high blood pressure which is very common so dont be worried if you stay small everyones body reacts different to pregnancy

hello I'm 20 weeks with my 3rd baby. I DON'T SHOW AT ALL EITHER!. I just found out yesterday it's a BOY and the ultrasound was normal fine. He was 10.5 inches 14 ounces. When i lay down on my back is the ONLY time you can feel my belly is a Lil round hard. I ask my ob about not showing he said the baby was in a very curled up position and my uterus was tilted a Lil back and everything was JUST FINE. I was very worried i also feel movement all the time. ASK YOU DOC don't LISTEN TO ANYONE but the doc! everyone had me worried something was wrong the ultersound proved my son has lottas water 2 arms 2 legs growing just prefect! i'm overweight i've gained just 6 pounds so far. Those who wrote larger women show not ture every women carries diffrent skinny or big. it's also common to show sooner with a 2ed or 3rd i'm not showing sooner.

I am kind of laughing because I remember when I was 20 weeks pregnant and thought that it was a piece of cake. I wasn't showing yet, my awful morning sickness was gone and I was just a little bloated. Then something happened. I was about 28 weeks pregnant and my stomach started getting bigger and bigger until I felt like my whole stomach was going to burst. By the time I was 35 weeks pregnant I knew that I couldn't get any bigger. By the time I had my child I was so relieved to be done with my pregnancy. I had a new chapter beginning in my life. Motherhood. It isn't easy. Don't let anyone tell you it is. What your going through sounds pretty normal to me. Good Luck and Congrats on the new baby!!!!!

I am pregnant with my first child and due in a week. I didn't really start showing a lot until my third trimester. I wouldn't worry as long as the Doctor doesn't seem concerned and you are able to feel the baby moving. Everything seems fine. Plus, smaller figured women in my opinion, usually don't show as much as larger framed women. If you're gaining weight like you should be and the baby is moving.... I wouldn't be worried.
Good Luck!
Hope I helped in answering your question:)

NO there is anything wrong with you. 20 wks is still really early. I didnt start gaining any weight until now. I'm 24 weeks. But i dont really look pregnant just fat. My uterus has grow but it didnt round out my belly. Just wait in a few weeks you will wish that you still really couldnt fit into maternity.

No i do no longer think of there's a situation, distinctly in case you sense & seeing flow from the toddler. Your abdomen will come quickly sufficient! And from what i've got heard (and am now experiencing) it comes alot faster with the 2d being pregnant, if that's on your destiny! i'm in hassle-free terms 9 wks and that i've got have been given the pooch already while with my first i replaced into 5-6 months earlier i began out showing and donning maternity clothing. Congrats to you and robust success tying your footwear in a pair of months!! :o)

Nope sounds like everything is going well. When I was 20 weeks pregnant I was barely showing too. At 30 weeks you could barely tell I was pregnant. When my daughter was born at 38 weeks I finally looked like I had a belly, but people were really mean to me, because I didn't look like I gained too much.

Not necessarily. You are skinny, which makes it alittle hard for the baby to find some room. But don't worry, eventually you'll have the baby belly that makes pregnancy so beautiful. Congradulations.

Everything is probably fine:) If your doctor is not concerned, then you should be alright. Talk to your doctor to get the reassurance you need. Everyone's pregnancy is different:)
