Im not thin... I have a handful of fat on my stomach... but, when I would suck in my stomach before, you wouldnt be able to see how its big, then goes in around my waist, then back out again.
Now, even when I try to suck in my stomach, it still seems kind of fat, like it still looks like a double belly...
Im only nine weeks though, and its my first, is this the reason it wont go in as it used to though?

Chances are your belly is looking fat because you are bloated. I'm only 7 weeks along and my clothes are not fitting me!
It couldn't be the baby because it's only the size of a small olive right now, so it is probably due to what doctors call "bowel distention."
Bloating is VERY common in the first trimester.

That would be the reason. I am almost 9 wks and have the same thing going on. I am thin I guess but have that little lower belly pouch if you know what I mean. Before I could suck it in, not anymore. I can't even stand my low rise pants cutting into my stomach so I have started wearing maternity jeans on the weekends. I just feel fat, it doesn't look like a baby bump yet just like I gained a few lbs.

Yes, and I know how you feel.
At 9 wks, your baby is as big as a small to large olive. In a few weeks, your baby will almost be the size of a medium lime.
Your uterus has grown large enough to accomodate your new addition, so you will appear and feel like you are bloated.
