size of my belly

[tigerlily88]

I am now 18 weeks and still don't look very pregnant. I've barely put on weight which isn't the issue. I am just wondering everyone says I'm having a boy because I'm so tiny. Did any other ftms have an experience like this or were some of you tiny with a girl also?

[tigerlily88]

Thanks everyone. I'm not concerned with not really showing yet. I know as a ftm it is normal. I guess I'm more intrigued with the assumption that not showing means it's a boy. What were your experiences with that?

Im 18 weeks today and have had a bump from 11 weeks. I've lost 1 stone through the morning sickness so havent had any weight increase.
Everyone keeps telling me oh your so big but all centred round your tummy so itd a girl! We're not finding out so guess we will have to wait and see if they are right!x

I'll be 17 weeks tomorrow and this is my 3rd pregnancy. I'm not showing just look like I had a nice lunch lol. I was also a little heave before my pregnancy so tht may have something to do with it! With my second son I didn't start showing until I was about 6 months! :/

I am 22 weeks and you can't tell either

Usually a first time mother takes longer to show because their abdominal muscles are tighter.

I am 20 weeks and I haven't gained a pound. In fact I have lost 10 lbs. My pants are a little tight but that's about it.

If it's your first it's less likely you will show until the end of your second trimestre or the beginning of the third. The baby usually starts getting fatter at the end of your pregnancy. Don't worry about showing yet, im at 37 weeks and I don't think he fits anymore. Just be patient.

I'm 20 weeks and haven't gained any weight. I haven't started to show a belly at this point yet.

I have only gained 5lbs and when i see some of my old coworkers they are afraid to ask me about my pregnancy bc they where not sure if i was actually pregnant. Im also 18weeks. Pants are a bit snug but mostly im pretty much the same dr says everything is great both myself and baby are doing well

I'm not tiny i was a bigger girl before I got prego but I'm 29 weeks tomorrow and I've only gained 7lbs so far and just now getting "the belly". They say you gain the most and get the biggest the last couple of months. I'm having a girl BTW. Good luck mamma.
