Not showing yet 11.5 weeks

JuneBaby1984

Hello,
I'm due July 1 (should switch groups maybe..but close enough?).  I can't feel my uterus getting any bigger or see it at all I don't think.  Is that normal?  I still feel like throwing up in the morning and usually at night, and am super tired and my boobs hurt.  Anyone else the same?

Ya, I'm 14 weeks and I'm not showing, just feeling bloated and pudgy. With my son I didn't show until like 20 weeks. There are variations of normal for every pregnancy

Is this for first pregnancy? If so, you probably won't be able to. With my first I did not show until about 16 weeks. With this pregnancy my stomach muscles have already separated once so it was much easier and faster this time around.

If this is your first child, it's totally normal.  You may not show for a while.  It's all dependent upon your body.

I have a big belly at 12 weeks (my second) but still can't really tell what is bloat and pudge and what is baby.  I was totally flat stomached for my first until maybe 16 weeks- but I think I've gained more weight this time so different factors all around.  I hope at least some of my protruding gut is uterus/baby-related.

It was over 20 weeks before I showed with my first. And I'm pretty sure that I was the only one who could notice.

I didn't show until 17 weeks with my first.

I'm almost 12 weeks with triplets and have a tiny bump.

15 weeks with my third and just barely showing!

I'm almost 16 weeks and have nothing but bloat. I've been able to feel my uterus for about 2 weeks now, it's slowly moving up but not out.

This is my first and I didn't feel my uterus until 15 weeks. And then my belly sort of popped out overnight. My DH and friends notice but I'm sure I look normal to strangers. We've been taking weekly pictures and there's a big difference between week 7 and 15!!

I bumped out a little around week 12 but since then I don't think the bump has grown at all.  Each body is different, I wouldn't worry about it.

Ditto what PPs have already said. Everyone is different. I think it also has a lot to do with your individual body - whether or not you're a FTM, how long or short your torso is, how strong your abdominal muscles are, etc.

I am a FTM, fairly slim and have a very short torso. Up until about 11-12 weeks it was all bloat for me. Once I hit 12 weeks, the bloat went away for the most part and I could feel my uterus starting to pop out. I'm now 14+3 and definitely have a little belly starting to make an appearance - to the point where people who know me can tell a difference. To strangers, it's still at that stage where they're wondering whether if I'm pregnant or just fluffy.

I'm 15+5 and I can start to feel my bump but to everyone else, even people I know, are commenting that I don't look pregnant yet My belly is starting to protrude a little bit, but nothing too noticeable yet - just to people close to me. I'm only 5'2" and a touch overweight but I've read that it is very normal for FTM to not show until up to 20+ weeks!

Totally normal. I didn't show till around 20w with my first and probably 15 with my second. I'm 11+5 and my belly is just starting to round out. But I wouldn't even call it showing. Just changing at this point.

The uterus isn't even large enough to grow above the pelvic bone until 12 weeks, so it's all normal. I'm 15 weeks and not showing at all. I still fit in all my pre-pregnancy clothes (though they're a tiny bit more snug).

I showed early, but it's totally normal for most FTMs not to have anything noticeable until the end of the first tri/start of the second. Take a pic now and in two weeks, bet you'll see a huge change!

arosemong

I'm 13+2 days, long torso & not showing a thing.. Except some bloat at the end of the day! Can't wait to see or feel something! good luck!

Embrace it. Soon you won't be able to get off the couch without propping yourself up with both your arms behind you.
I started showing with my first around 16 weeks. I am 15+4 now and I have an obvious bump that showed up pretty much overnight a week ago. 

marriedtoadutchman

If this is your first that's totally normal. Actually even stm can show later. I showed early with my first three and this one I just popped out last week (12 1/2 weeks).
Enjoy it, your bump will be here before you know it:)

Thanks everybody..it is my first.  I figured it was normal but am pretty paranoid!  I feel like there i nothing in there even though I saw it on an ultrasound. My belly is a bit bigger, but its more like a thanksgiving food baby situation.

It's seriously amazing everything that's going on in there when you're a FTM and how little it shows on the outside. Completely normal. I didn't feel like I was fully showing until after my anatomy scan with DS...up until then it was just bloated/looking a little chubby. You'll get that cute belly very very soon.
