2nd Trimester

16 weeks, not showing at all.

Anyone else dealing with this? I'm 16wks, 4days with baby number 1. I'm 20 years old, 5'2, average build. I was so nauseous in the 1st trimester that I actually lost 8 pounds instead of gaining. I don't look pregnant at all. It's driving me crazy cause my sister is 14wks, yet she looks pregnant and she's the same size as me, just weighs a little more and is 3 years older. I've had ultrasounds done, so I know the baby is healthy. But I don't understand why I'm not showing at all.

  • I had some bloat with this pregnancy, but I didn't really pop or show enough for people to assume I was pregnant until I was 18 weeks. I wouldn't worry about it in your case. Everyone's body is different.
  • I am 16 weeks and I am finally the same weight that I started at before I got sick in the first trimester. I am not showing at all either. I know my time will come and my doctor said as long as the baby is healthy my weight is just fine.

    I have gained weight but no bump and will be 16 weeks Wednesday. I really don't think I will start showing for a few more weeks. I just don't feel anything getting harder. Yes I have blump but its not bump. I am also a FTM.

  • I didn't show till 22-24. And even then people thought I was just putting on weight.

  • I'm about 5'3 average weight and I'm a little over 15 wks pregnant with my first and have no noticeable bump either. I just figure with it being my first it will take me a little longer to show.
  • I am only 4 feet 11 inches so quite a bit shorter than you and I did not start to show until 23 weeks and at that point It was still a tiny bump just be patient for the little bump it will come soon enough !!!
  • this is my 2nd pregnancy, but I had twins the first time around. I'm currently 17 weeks and you cannot really tell I'm pregnant. Like everyone has said, you will eventually pop. Enjoy it now :)

    I FEEL EXACTLY THE SAME WAY! I wish my stomach wasn't so squishy. haha Soon enough it'll be huge and we'll be wishing for our small bellies back.

    I'm 16 weeks tomorrow and still just bloated looking. I think it's normal for FTM's.

  • i wouldnt worry too much, i didnt start showing until i was about 20 weeks and now at 26 weeks i'm huge!! its amazing how much my bump grew in six weeks. once the baby's doing ok and your dr isnt worried then you have nothing to worry about. Good luck and congratulations!!

    Am 16 weeks in I have the same problem. No baby bump yet but I am a FTM .So I hope my baby bump will show soon <:-P
  • I'm 5'8, 25 and almost 21 weeks and just kind of started showing last weekend. My SIL was 20 when she got pregnant, is about 5' and was about 81lbs. She didn't actually show until closer to 30 weeks, until that point she just looked like she had eaten a large meal. I keep telling myself that I will have plenty of time to look huge!
