I noticed the same thing this time! Weighed myself yeserday and I was down 3 pounds. My appatite has been up and down. One day not hungry at all the next I'm starving. I'm craving fruit popsickles for weeks now!
Mine is definitely bigger some days than others. It's really weird. I first really noticed it at about 14 weeks but just yesterday 4 days later felt like it was much smaller. Probably just a mix of factors going on down there!
Agreed...I feel smaller now than 2 weeks ago. This is baby #2 and I was told I'd be bigger quicker and its not like that at all.
I have gestational diabetes and due to the diet restrications have lost 10 lbs and maybe its becuase I'm larger to begin with, but i don't look prego. If you didn't know I was, you'd think its just a chubby belly. Next OB appointment isnt' for 2 more weeks for that peace of mind we are always looking for.
i am fifteen weeks, and this is my first pregnancy. i have tons of questions all the time with whats going on down there. but my main concern is why cant i tell. i dont even look pregnant. i have maybe gained two pounds. i see the doctor in two weeks so i am really hoping everything is just ok down there. i am such a worry wart.
i am also first time prego and at times i also am not sure and worry if everything is ok... specially on the days that i fees more energetic and up beat. sometimes i cant tell if there is anything going on down there... and if everything is fine?!
I feel the same way I'm going to the gym more, I feel more energetic and I don't feel pregnant at all! Nor do people think I am if they don't know, I worry alot cuz I had a miscarriage in march so I'm freaking out ! But I heard it was normal not to show on your first pregnancy until half anyways , I am hoping I will soon pop out currently 15 weeks and 2 days so maybe in 2 weeks
My bump is smaller and not as firm in the mornings as it is as the day goes on. I think this is due to eating and some of the fullness and firmness being due to slow digestion that occurs with pregnancyI know! Gross!
For those who are first time preggo don't worry if you haven't gained a lot of weight and/or aren't showing much yet. One day you will wake up and wonder where the heck that bump came from all of a sudden. Plus you won't have as much to lose when all is said and done :
I've been feeling baby for 2 weeks now... Only at night when I'm laying down quietly. This is my third so I know what to expect and my dr said that its completely normal to feel the baby if you know what you should be feeling...
I feel you on the "chubby belly". I look like I have drank one too many carbonated beverages! I have finally gained 1 1/2 LBS finally but have managed to stay constant until now and have been very lucky without any negative side effects of pregnancy besides bloating (I take extra progesterone). Although I do not feel like my belly has gotten "smaller" (because there isnt much there to begin with), I do feel like my bloating has decreased some.
I am not sure if I am feeling movement or not, but the other day while I was driving I had a few episodes of a tight fluttering feeling in my lower abdomen and thought maybe it was some movement. I wear scrubs to work and had stopped at home to put jeans on before I headed out for a family dinner.... I am thinking maybe baby did not like the confinement of mommy's "beginning to be too tight" jeans! HAH!!
Oh that is good you're going to the gym more, I've seem to lost that energy this week. I enjoy working out but I noticed if I go at my normal pace I start to get light cramps. I've had 2 previous miscarriages myself and worry still. I'm not showing just yet but my jeans are tighter...Has anyone got the belly band and if so is it comfortable to wear with jeans?
It's ok. I didn't start showing until 5 1/26 mo for my first child and at that point only gained maybe 10lbs if I'm lucky. After that I popped and gained 30 more! But I was really tiny before so it was ok to gain that much.
SoI Don't Feel Like I'm Showing Much. But I Have brOught Maternity Pants Since My Jeans Are Not Comfortable Anymore. I HaveLostWeight, So I WorrY AboutTheBaby Being Ok. ButI HadAn Appt Yesterday 4/8/13 AndI GotToHear The Baby Heartbeat SoThat Reassured Me That SoFar So Good.
I got a belly band from target and wear it with jeans and dress pants alike. At first, my jeans were a little too heavy and I found myself tugging at them a lot because they kept falling down, but it works really well with dress pants. I tend to stick with the maternity jeans since they stay up a little better.
I definitely feel like my tummy is flatter now than it was at 12 weeks. I stepped on the scale the other day and noticed that I had lost 10 lbs since the start of my pregnancy.

Anyone at 15 weeks feeling any movements??
