Question

I'm just about to be 16 weeks and I'm not showing at all!! I'm so worried that like the baby died or stopped growing.. I can feel like this big ball under my belly button if I lay on my back tho...is this normal to not be showing or should I be worried? :(

Answer

No you shouldn't be worried. Everyone is different and show at different times.

Answer

No I think it is normal- especially if you are really thin. If you can't shake the worry why not schedule another scan. Just ask your doctor for a federal because you feel anxious and want to see the baby :)

Answer

I didn't show with my first till 5 months along or so... And it was a small bump. I could only feel my boy when I laid on my stomach. Call the doc if you are really worried. At 16w they can do that audio sono thing easily, or an actual visual sono. Not too good with the propper terms of everything :) Everyone's different, and a lot depends on placement of the placenta on where baby lies in the uterus.

Answer

I had the same issue. I think over on the expecting first child board they talk about when they popped as FTM. Why don't you go look and see what the ranges are? I saw someone who didn't pop until 20 weeks!

Answer

Is it your first baby? I didn't start showing with my first till I was 5 months!

Answer

I'm 13w 5d and I'm barely showing but this I my 3rd I was almost 6 months with my first before I started to show.

Answer

I shouldn't worry. I'm on my 3rd and just found out I'm 14 wks with twins and hardly showing. Enjoy it as you'll soon have a big bump ? xx

Answer

This is me at 16 + 1 days with my third pregnancy. My stomach is a little thicker, but I don't really show until later on. Although at the end, I Iook massive as I have no room left where I'm only 5ft 1! ​

Answer

It's completely normal. Regardless of body weight. You may not notice a bump till 20 weeks! Everyone is different!!
