I'm a FTM and almost 23 weeks pregnant. I definitely have a little "bump" but my sister who is also a FTM and only 4 weeks ahead of me has a definite full pregnant belly. She looks pregnant, I look like maybe I just ate a really large meal still. I know that every body is different but it still concerns me, especially since at our AS the tech told us that the baby is measuring on the smaller side - about a week early. She didn't seem concerned and my midwives haven't been concerned (though they said my belly still isn't big enough to me measured) and at my last appointment at 21 weeks I had gained 11 lbs. which they seemed happy with. To other FTM's - do you have a very noticeable round belly at this point?

Re: Still not showing very much at 23 weeks?
Everyone carries differently. With my first pregnancy, I didn't show at all until past 24w. Even full term, I looked more like 7 months and I was measuring 3 weeks behind. DS was a completely normal size (7lbs, 15oz) even though I was measuring small.

I'm a first time mom and I have a definite round belly. It's still small, but noticeably a "pregnant" belly...very round and pronounced. My SO calls it my melon belly.
Every body is different, though! And every pregnancy, too.
