Ever since I got pg It seams i have a B shape belly... im not plus size or any thing... and I have to suck in and lift up my arms to see the bump... anyone else have this?
Do you mean that there's an indentation around your waist/bellybutton? If so, you're like me... that's the way my body naturally gains weight, with a bulge above and below the waist. As baby grows and moves upward (they're still below your bellybutton at this point), I'll bet your "B" will smooth out--that's what I'm hoping for.

that's how i am now.. slight bump below my belly button and a tiny chub above...probably wouldn't notice it but i do.. lol Soon (i hope) the bump will grow so i don't look like i ate a lot.
I feel like some days mine looks like this! I just wear an awesome maternity tank that I got at target and that seems to smooth it all out. Plus I wear full panel pants which I think helps too!

Yep, until your uterus reaches your belly button you're probably stuck with it. I've been using support garments to round things out and give my baby belly some lift. After 20 weeks or so things start to smooth out. Not too much longer now!
I can't remember ever not having a B belly--I've been very overweight since I was 4 or 5 years old. Once my uterus gets up there and things start to round out it will be very strange! It might take be a long time to actually round out but I'd expect it by 30 weeks or so.
I find that if I pull my maternity pants all the way up (even though I don't really need the panel all the way up) then it smooths things out and doesn't look as B-shaped as it does otherwise.
I do, but that's because my fat was that way to begin with. Here are some pics of the progression.

Mine looked a bit like this because I normally wear my jeans at my belly button (very short girl). If you're like me give it another few weeks. Mine really started to round out at around 22. Now I actually look pregnant not just lumpy ; )

Hmmm, mine is more square and has nothing to do with my insides, I have a very very deep belly button so instead of sticking out like a cone, it makes my belly flat in that area. My ute is well above my belly button already. I did get rid of the square shape close to the end when my belly button was almost flush with my belly.
I have the same issue. My upper belly area is bigger now that my lower belly area- my uterus is about 2 inches above my belly button. But it is smoothing out and I am just avoiding clingy tops lol!

Yes, I have this as well.
