Too small for almost 19w?

Question

People keep saying I'm barely showing. This pic is 18w5d according to glow. I keep getting worried because I wonder if Bump should be bigger since I'm so short (barely 5'2"). And it hasn't changed much in the past couple weeks. Doc says uterus is measuring with right weeks, and I've gained 12 pounds. But belly just barely sticking out for being half-way thru pregnancy. any thoughts?

Answer

If this is your first pregnancy, your body takes more time to adjust and most first pregnancies end up showing later and feeling baby movements later. I was amazed at how fast I was showing with this pregnancy because I hadn't shown really until 25 weeks with my first.

Answer

Thanks ladies! I was kinda thinking it was ok but people keeps saying stuff so it makes me nervous. Lol

Answer

Sometimes if your uterus is a certain you won't feel the baby. Have a friend that's her experience.

Answer

I'm 18w 1d and showing even less than you, also 5'3" and have put on 12lbs. I'm traveling to see my family for thanksgiving next week and they're all so excited to see my "bump," but since I'm barely showing I'm worried they're all going to be sorely disappointed. It's weird but people don't realize that telling someone they are "barely showing" can be almost as insensitive as telling someone they "look huge" especially if all you've wanted for a long time is to have a cute bump.

Answer

Im the same and last pregnancy I was also like this.. Couldn't really see the bump till after 20 weeks.. And started feeling the baby move at 21-22 week, no worries at all just enjoy not being huge yet ;)

Answer

With my first I didnt get a bump until I was 6 months pregnant. You look great! Dont worry...your belly is going to pop out of nowhere soon!! And as for movements are concerned you may not feel anything for another week or so. Every person is different.

Answer

Forgot to say that I haven't felt any kicks yet either. Almost everyone says I should have felt it by now. Should I be worried?

Answer

Im now twenty weeks this pic was taken at 19 weeks and I still don't have a huge noticeable bump yet! I have a retroflexed uterus so not sure if it can take longer to show or what xxx but had a scan on sat and baby growing fine ???

Answer

No u should! I am 20 weeks today and about that same size. Some women don't show till later or feel baby move.
