if this is your first pregnancy it is really common not to show yet. (some women don't show early with any pregnancies). Usually with a first your stomach muscles are more toned and strong and therefore able to hold in anything that wants to protrude out. When you get to 2 and 3 + kids the muscles are looser so you show earlier.
Baby seems to be at a normal size (bear in mind u/s is never 100% accurate at determing length, there is usually a cm or 2 discrepancy) and if doctor is happy then don't worry. In the next 6-8 weeks you will pop out and there will be no hiding that you are pregnant! Trust me when you get to 37 weeks you'll be wishing you had that little tummy again!
Good luck and congrats

It's definitely not a bad thing or an unusual thing. With my first child, I didn't even start to show until I was 7 1/2 months pregnant - and my daughter was born like 2 weeks later (after I started to show) - she was born 3 weeks early and weighed in at a hefty 7 lbs 8 oz and was nearly 22 inches long! I am currently 7 months pregnant with baby #2 and I'm still not showing, in fact, I'm still in the same jeans and clothes and I kid you not, I have not even moved up a belt loop on my belt! and this baby feels like it's bigger than my daughter was at this gestation age! It's all just in how you carry your baby. It's nothing to be worried about though! :)

Depends on the woman and the position of the baby...as for when she will start showing. So yes it's normal and nothing to worry about. For my first I was about 24 weeks before you could "tell" I was pregnant but I started showing this last time very early. Showing is not a way to check the progression of the pregnancy.

If this is your first baby, you might not show until 20 weeks or so. I wouldn't worry about it, if your doctor didn't seem worried. I was a very early shower, so I am not a good example. I started poping out at about 14 weeks. LOL (this is my first one)depending on your body size really, some woman don't show until there further along. i was talking to this woman and she had 3 weeks to go, and i was wondering where the hell she was pregnant because she wasn't showing nothing lol. some people are lucky and others have a big hugh belly like me lol. well I'm sure you will start to show soon. good luck and congrats.

Some women show straight away and others don't. You will probably really balloon out at about 7-8 months anyway, so nothing to worry about. I once knew a girl who went into labour, the nurses at the hospital didn't take her seriously because she only looked about 5-6 months but she was actually overdue.

My first one didn't show until I was 22 weeks or 5 1/2 months-oh my-- then I ballooned-- Every day I got bigger and bigger. By the end of my 7th month I couldn't see my feet. By the end of my 8th month I couldn't get off the couch by myself.It was a wonderful experience even though I was a whale.

I'm 14 weeks and only I can tell that I'm pregnant...and I doubt it will be much different in 3 weeks for me. I've heard that in first pregnancies you don't show until later. Your body type/abdomen shape has something to do with it too...although I'm 5'2" and 108 pounds with a flat stomach, I'm still not showing...

Be happy your not showing. As long as the baby and you are healthy, thats all that matters. My first, I was pregnant with twins, I didnt show till I was 5 months.
But then again I gained only 37lbs with my twins and they were big babies, 5lbs and the other was 7lbs 2 oz.

I barely showed at all until I was 6 months, and still wearing my regular clothes a little longer then that.
You are perfectly normal, your baby sounds like it's a good size, I wouldn't worry.
