Feeling kind of different..?

Question

So I'm 16 weeks & 4 days. I haven't gained, lost any weight at all. And every time a friend, family member, even those friends on Facebook you aren't exactly A1 with find out they question if I'm eating, or if my baby is normal. I'm not showing at all. I never had symptoms to begin with, and when they ask me about my symptoms I'm awkwardly replying I don't have any. But everyone asking me and showing me all the pictures of their bellies at this gestation make me insecure in an odd way... I mean every doctor appointment goes well baby has a strong heart beat, growing fine. But I can't help but feel like something is wrong especially with all these women, and surprisingly men commenting on my lack of a baby bump.
Any wise words , or someone who can relate?

Answer

Everyone is different. With my first pregnancy I didn't start showing till I was 6 months. With my 2nd and now 3rd I showed a lot sooner. Don't let them get to you!

Answer

I totally understand what you are feeling!!! Everyone keeps saying "well you don't even look pregnant" I guess I should be glad since I haven't gained any weight, but im looking forward to having a little bit of a noticeable bump! I kinda have a disappearing Bump! Lol changes so much throughout the day! We just need to hang in there and be thankful. As long as our babies are fine we are good to go!!!! Ps I will be four month tomorrow!!! 😃

Answer

I was literally fatter then my aunt her whole pregnancy. I'd be surprised if she hit 120 at 9 months pregnant. It will be ok! I bet you'll bounce back nicely and we will all be jealous.

Answer

It's normal in your first pregnancy not to gain or show till about 20 weeks. The more pregnancies you have the faster you show (not always the case tho) I'm almost 16 weeks and have only gained one lb. and not having symptoms, take that as a blessing! Don't worry about what people say, every pregnancy and every woman is different.

Answer

Oh wow, I wish I was you! My symptoms are so intense and my belly is so big already! Even my Mom had to tell me I look bigger than 4 months. Ugh!  I really wish I could hide it for now and not be so tired bc then maybe I could work. You're one lucky ducky imo!

Answer

Everyone  is different, some women show early other don't show until 20+ weeks, some have all the symptoms others don't same goes for weight gain. With my First I didn't show until 18ish weeks but I had gained at lest 12+ lbs by then, this pregnancy I'm 14 weeks, I'm already showing and I have lost about 3lbs. First baby I barely had symptoms, this pregnancy I have been sick for the last 7/8 weeks

Answer

I went to doc today and haven't gained a single pound at 17 weeks. Doctor didn't seem concerned. I'm a first time mom and I've heard it can take your body a while to show the first time.
