I lost 10 pounds during the first trimester, and I still not showing. I have been able to gain about 5-6 pounds back but I'm ready to show! Anybody else having this problem???

    I will be happy to not show until I am like 16 weeks, that's when I plan to tell my new employer that I am preggies.
    Pity I am petite and a few people are already noticing the bump. I am 12 weeks and 4 days.

    I've only gained four pounds so far, with twins. It makes me nervous. But boy, am I showing.

    If it's your first, you won't really be showing too much. Second time mom's show sooner because their uterus is bigger from already carrying a baby to term. If you are a STM, then it could be possible to that you'll see some changes in the next week or so. Even first time moms are told that they will see an incredible amount of change in their 15th or 16th week. You will get your bump, don't worry (:

    12 weeks 4 days, FTM.  I can only tell if I wear something super tight, and even then I just look chubby :)

    I'm not showing at all either - 13 weeks day 2. I really don't think I'll have to buy any summer clothes, which is nice :) And when I went to the doctor she was all about me not gaining very much (and I'm very thin). She said it's a lot harder to birth a big baby for me and for the doctor, and I should watch what I eat or it'll start catching up to me. I thought she was a little overboard. LOL

    FTM 12 w 4 d and no bump yet, still fit all my clothes and am happy about that for now. Though the other night after eating a gigantic bowl of popcorn I had a nice "baby" belly going haha.

    I'm 14w4d and not really showing either. I've gained about 5 pounds so far. It really just looks more like a food baby than an actual baby right now.

    With my first I looked like I had just eaten a big meal until about 20 weeks. (I also didn't gain any weight until 20 wks) I remember buying a maternity shirt and when I was checking out the clerk said, "you're pregnant? It looks like you just ate a bagel." Ha.

    13w, 3d, ftm, still not showing. I also lost 10 pounds and I don't think I've gained much back, if any. I did notice yesterday that the bottom of my stomach is hard now. So I'm guessing that's the start of it.

    I'm not showing. I'm still in my normal pants (albeit a bit snugger these days) at 11w2d with my third baby. I may start doing the hair elastic trick soon.

    Believe me...the longer til you show, the better! People are SO RUDE and intrusive when you show. Random strangers will comment on every little thing you eat, say, or do. It will boggle your mind. The fewer weeks I have to deal with that, the better!

    I'm only 10w4d, but definitely just bloated mushy, not showing. I'm nervous because I'm a bridesmaid in my cousin's wedding at 16 weeks and I really hope to be showing by then so that it's obvious I'm pregnant and don't just look like a mushy mess in pictures that my family will look at forever! But I know as a FTM it's likely I still will just be a mush ball by then...maybe I'll push it out and pretend my blump is a bump, haha.

    With my 1st I didn't show until around 18 weeks. Everybody is different.

    I'm surprised I'm showing already, 13 weeks tomorrow FTM. Haven't gained any weight but def have a little bump going on. I also wasn't sick, so I didn't lose any weight. I was pretty small before getting pregnant so a lot of people have said its not surprising that I'm showing now, any little thing on me shows haha but I'm looking forward to my baby belly just like many of the rest of you!

    I'm 12w4d and honestly glad I'm not showing...maybe this is a post for a u/o discussion but I'll take not showing for as long as possible! I'm very excited to be pregnant but I'm enjoying being able to do all the things I'm used to doing (besides drinking alcohol), my clothes all still fit, my back doesn't hurt (yet), and I don't have people trying to touch my belly - which is creepy whether I know you or not! So I'll take a few more week or (maybe) months of the not showing

    Edited - bc it cut off my post, stupid app!

    I didn't show with my first until around 22 weeks. They kept sending me for ultrasounds to make sure the baby was growing.(she was 8lbs 7oz!) I looked about 6 months pregnant the day I gave birth. Everybody carries differently! With my second I'm 10 weeks and still don't look any different. I'm so curious what it'll be like when I'm further along!

    I totally agree with all of this!! Especially since I've been through it once before - yes the bump is cute and it's amazing to feel the baby kick, but I HATED having random strangers ask me personal questions just because I was visibly pregnant. Plus there's lots of stuff that I'm taking advantage of that I know (remember) won't last long after the first tri. Normal exercise! Sleeping on my back and stomach! Wearing my regular clothes! Enjoy it while it lasts!!!

    I didn't show with my first till about 20 weeks. The smaller your belly stays the less stretch marks you'll have, I'm in no hurry to start show.
