not showing

I am 21 weeks and my belly hasn't even formed to look pregnant. I wear pregnancy clothes cause my hips don't fit in my regular jeans but other than that people can never even tell I am pregnant. Is this normal or should I worry?

I didnt find out I was pregnant until I was 5 months because I wasnt showing at all. My stomach was as flat as a wall. Every pregnancy is different, and everyone's bodies are different. Its ok to not be showing right now

Every person I tell is shocked when I say I'm pregnant & then even more shocked when I tell them almost 6 mths.. I don't look it at all & I've only gained 1/2lb (but baby is 1lb). Every pregnancy/body is different :-)

right there with you about to be 21 weeks and I barely look like I'm 9 w don't worry that's better for us when its time to lose the weight. . . I have been to the doctor numerous of times and she says I am perfectly on track because I'm in eating correctly and staying hydrated as long as you're doing that you should be good.. hope this helps

Ya when I was pregnant with my daughter I started forming a baby bump at 3 months and at 4 months it formed into a natural baby bump. But with this pregnancy I'm not showing. My stomach is hard and I feel my baby kicking but I'm not showing. Even my mother in law said I don't loom pregnant which is good cause that means when this baby born I won't have much work to do to lose weight haha but I'm also worried my baby might have some down syndrome or birth defect

I started showing at 4 months this is my first baby. My husband and I both come from tall families. My dad 6'4 and so is his. I'm 5'4 so I think I might be having a big boy on the way. I'm all belly. But in all honesty everybodies body is different so.

This is my rainbow baby.. And I'm 37 weeks on Friday and I hardly look pregnant!! And im about to pop! So don't worry. Everyone is different and baby's are different. If people ask if I'm pregnant they think 3-5 months.. and I'm 9months.. Its pretty sad! Lol I always wanted to look pregnant but guess not. But you will probably pop at 6/7 months.

Im 21w 4d and I have the same situation, no belly whatsoever I was terrified until this morning actually. My doctor told me not to worry because between 6 & 7 months my belly is gonna pop, so the same probably goes for you. If you start to feel let your doctor know you're concerned so he/ she can reassure you that everything is gonna be fine. :)

It's normal. Women who have more than one child show quicker. You'll start to show soon. :)
