Every woman's pregnancy is different. My friend is almost 6 months along and she only has a small bump ( 5'6 , 106 lbs before pregnancy).. Not noticeable yet if you aren't looking for it LOL. Do twins run in either family, or have you had an ultrasound yet? This could be a possibility. Just relax and enjoy being pregnant - it is one of the most amazing experiences a woman can have! Congrats by the way!!

Small women show more because there's no fat to hide the pregnancy. If your Dr. says you're ok, then you're fine. You should gain about 25 - 35 lbs total during your pregnancy to be healthy. Congrats.

Your fine everyone is different. Every pregnancy is different. No two women at the same point in their pregnancy is exactly alike. Quit comparing bellys and enjoy this miraculous time in your life. Take time for just you because after the baby is born there is no more me time it is all about the baby.

Every woman is different; so as long as your doctor tells you everything is okay, you don't have to beat yourself up over it. My first six weeks everyone told me I had a big belly; after my belly was really cute and petite. So don't worry; you don't need the stress right now! Just make sure your baby is growing healthy and take care of yourself. That's what really matters. Congratulations!! :)

Yes it is normal, I was 90 Ibs and 5'1" when I got pregnant the first time and even this time I showed allot, it is just because you are smaller framed, my first one I had a very big baby though, this time I am just bigger probably;y cause it is my second pregnancy cause they told me she is tiny.

Most women do not "showing" until they are about 6 months along but again it depends on many things. I suggest that you speak with your doctor and see what they have to say. If there is something to worry about then they will tell you.

Everything is probably fine. Have you been to your OB doctor yet? That is the only sure way to set your mind at ease. I am average size and I was showing a little bump as early as 8 weeks....now I am in my 28th week and I am measuring average.

It's just bloating, unless you are carrying more than 1, trust me the baby is in no way big enough for you to be showing.
19 weeks pregnant, 8th pregnancy
