I wish I had that problem. I am only 23 weeks and I am wearing materninty clothing already. My first was 8-12, and I am afraid this one is going to be ginormous

Congratulations,
If your not looking to big then don't stress completely as long as your having kicks and movements then all should be well. I personally have had doctors stress me out every time, this is my 3rd baby. As I am very slim I look pregnant but not as big as "normal" normal is nothing as everyone is different. I was given ultrasounds to guess the baby's weight as I looked weeks smaller then I should be, Then been told I would have a tiny baby under 5lb and days later my baby's have been born. My son I was very small but still had a healthy 6lb 12oz baby, at 40 weeks. My daughter was even more worrying as she was only 36 weeks and I didn't gain as much weight, she came out a healthy 6lb 5.5oz. Now I am 34 nearly 35 weeks and have already gone into prem-labour, the doctors have stopped it as bub is to small meanwhile I have put on the most weight this time and am at the heaviest I have ever been. I have still been told my baby will be tiny. Its only an estimate and your body will carry your baby just how it needs to be, because your short this will have a big impact on how your body carries the weight. Don't stress and as long as you eat healthy and stay with a healthy pregnancy your going to have a beautiful healthy baby. (that's all that matters right) Good luck and stop stressing. Everyone is different and so your pregnancy's will be completely different. I wish you all the very best.

I just seemed fatter except I was once about 20 weeks pregnant or so, now i'm eventually commencing to appear pregnant. My BMI earlier than I received pregnant was like 28.5, but virtually all of it used to be on my hips/butt and upper palms, I had a as an alternative slim waist (good, for my weight anyway). So I simply began looking like a extra usual overweight person alternatively until not too long ago (and i have not even received any weight yet for the reason that I got pregnant). The more fat you will have for your stomach, the harder it can be without doubt going to be to inform where the uterus is... You probably mistaking your stomach on your uterus? I mean, particularly, your stomach mustn't get bigger whilst you are pregnant... Alternatively, it should get smaller because the uterus takes up house to your stomach. After I was once in highschool there used to be this fat girl that managed to hide the fact that she was once pregnant unless per week before she went into labor... Even her dad and mom didn't be aware of until then! Anyway, like other people have already said... Except the doc/midwife says there may be a challenge, you are absolutely nice. Congrats!

I am 32 weeks too I am due march 17 Did they measure your belly with the measuring tape. They did it to me and I was measuring 27 weeks and I was 30 they sent me for an ultrasound and I was actually bigger i was measuring 32.5. The baby was just rolled up. Everyone is different if the doctor isn't concerned then I wouldn't worry

When I went to the hospital to have my 1st son, they asked me why I was there. I left the hospital wearing the same jeans as I was wearing the day before. Sometimes you just don't show. Movement is the important thing. As long as your baby is moving around the baby is probably fine. Stressing will keep the baby from gaining weight though- so don't freak out until your doctor does.

my younger sister was the same way with her last pregnancy you couldnt even tell she was pregnant through out her whole pregnancy she was able to wear her size 4-5 pants the whole time she was pregnant, but with her first 2 pregnancys she wasnt that lucky so it pretty much depends on the woman herself but I believe its pretty normal for the body to decide how much you show in my sisters case she had a 5.6 lb lil girl who was only 19 inches and till this day my niece whom just turned a yr old is the size of an average 6-9 month old but the wieght of a 1 yr old but dont be worried...Good luck and congrats

I'm 35 weeks this Tuesday and I am not big at all. But you can tell I am pregnant, with my 1st pregnancy I was HUGE by my 4th month. Ask your dr. your next appt. if all of your measurments are ok. I know when i went in for my 26th week i was measuring 28 weeks. But still Im hardly showing.

I'm not sure because everyone is different, but my best friend was tiny until 35 weeks. Then she ballooned up and got stretch marks. What does your doctor say about your weight gain.

I'm 35 weeks pregnant and I don't have a huge belly either, I probably look like I'm about 6 or 7 months along. Every woman carries differently. I wouldn't be worried about it. Your OB measures your uterus at every appointment and if they aren't concerned, you are fine.
