Belly

in 2nd Trimester

I am 14 weeks 1 day today and my belly hasn't gotten any bigger.  In fact it looks like it did 2 months ago when I found out I was pregnant.  what is worst is I now have two bellys and it looks like I am really fat not pregnant.  (One fat roll above my belly button and one large bulge under the belly button.  I have always had some what of a belly due to the fact that I have a lot of extra belly stuff from loosing 100 lbs 1 years ago.  Just wondering if any us overweight moms have had similar issues?  Will my tummy eventually become nice and rounded?

 My friend who is has even more than me is already rounded out and her belly is hard.  Mine still feels like a blob of yuck!

    I still don't have much of a bump yet, actually unless I tell people no one even could tell I'm preggo!  It'll "pop" eventually!

    I wouldn't expect a "belly" until you are close to 20 weeks.  I know it's hard to wait that long!!  I'm 20 weeks now and just started getting my first comments from people who don't know I'm pregnant.

    You may just be a late shower too.  I wouldn't worry about it.  It's annoying just looking fat (I'm in the same boat), but soon enough you'll have your bump.  This is my third child and I'm almost 16 weeks and still not really showing at all.  I didn't show with my first baby until, no joke, 26 weeks.  My second I showed enough to tell I was pregnant at 19 weeks.

    I had lost 100 lbs before i got pregnant also, and this is also a problem. what i found was that if you wear one of those belly bands over your belly it smooths it out and makes it look round!!!

    I also lost over 100lbs just before I fell pregnant and I have the same problem! Feels good to know there are others out there!

     To make matters worse, I've gained a lot of weight already making me just feel fat! My one friend says I look pregnant, but I think he just sees that as my stomach is bigger, but it's still fat looking not round and hard like a prego tummy.

    All of this is quite frustrating! I can't wait to actually look pregnant and not just fat!

    This is my first... Between weeks 17 & 18 my belly popped out some.  I still have the indentation between my "rolls" that makes it look like a "B" belly.  I don't think I'm showing enough for people who don't know me to notice.

    Wearing maternity pants with the full belly panel, a maternity fitted tank, and a maternity shirt over it makes me look the most pregnant.  Your belly will pop anytime between now and 22 weeks!  Hang in there!  Just be glad that for now strangers aren't touching/grabbing your belly.  I was around DH's extended family this past weekend and felt so groped afterwards.  I wanted to tell them to quit touching my damm fat rolls.
