Anyone else barely showing?

I was not small to begin with, but I am not huge either.  I am almost 21 weeks and I feel like I barely have a baby bump.  Family has noticed, but I had someone today ask me when I was going to start looking pregnant.  Anyone else in the same situation?

Re: Anyone else barely showing?

  • I feel like I go back and forth... sometimes I look huge, and then other times, I look like I just need to cut out the french fries. Haha!

    This is me!  I swear it's how he positions himself in there because some days I look like I ate a small, whole watermelon and today I just look pudgy.

  • This is my second baby and I wasn't showing much AT ALL until the last week. I went from now showing to EVERYONE saying, "wow, you're suddenly HUGE!" haha You'll pop! Don't worry!

  • I am showing just a little bit. My bump is very comparable to how it was with DD.
    Don't worry your bump will grow! Enjoy being small right now and having clothes that fit!

  • Showing the tiniest bit that makes it look like I've gained lots of holiday weight. Luckily, my pre-preg pants still fit, but this newly formed muffin top make force me to get into some maternity pants. So ready for a legit bump already!

    The only time it looks like I have an actual bump is when I lay down. Guess my little boy doesn't want people to know hes in there just yet!

  • Don't worry- you'll pop soon.

    With DS1, I had nothing until about 23 weeks and it seemed to appear out of no where. I was pretty disappointed I didn't have a bump for so long. This time I'm about 5 weeks bigger and I've been gradually growing. I'm eating my words because I have nothing that fits!

     This.  If I'm wearing maternity pants then I look more pregnant but if I have leggings or sweats on then I barely look it.  I def look more pregnant this week though as all my work pants are maternity pants.  I think they just accentuate the belly because the waist is low but the band goes over the belly.

  • I am soooo happy to hear that some of you are starting to pop! Two weeks ago I looked the same and suddenly this week I have a cantaloupe protruding form my belly! I'm pretty sure it's hear to stay!

  • Still fit in my regular clothes, but I just look fat & dumpy. When I wear maternity clothes, I do show a tiny bit and I think that makes me look less fat & dumpy so I've just been wearing those.

  • I'm in the same boat. I am pretty small to begin with (tall and slender) so everyone keeps saying I should be bigger. I eat ALL THE TIME but I just don't gain that much weight. It's starting to really bother me...
  • I'm in the same boat.  I am 20weeks and I barely have a bump.  I'm in all regular clothes (even though they're getting snug) and most people ask when I'll start showing. 

    When I went to work the other day, the secretaries said "Aren't you supposed to look pregnant by now?!"
