Hi, I haven't posted in awhile but I have
a question.
I'm 18 weeks and not showing at all. I'm
still as flat as ever with only a little
pooch. I was 115 pre-preg and still
haven't gained anything. Is this normal?
When did you first start noticing a bump?

Hi I'm almost 1 week over due now but I
started out at 105 in weight at the
begining of my pregnancy. I stayed that
weight for several months and you couldnt
tell I was prego until 7 months (6 months
if you knew me). Its completely normal,
your prolly just thin, fit and tall like I
am. Keep taking your prenatal vitamins and
eat reguarly, you should be fine. I weigh
147 now, I weighed a bit more a few weeks
ago but I dropped a few pounds, which is
no cause for concern. I have a long torso
too so I had a ton of room for baby to fit
inside, but because of that I always
appeared to be smaller then I really was.
See most girls are fairly short so they
look so huge because their babies ball out
all in the middle of their tummies. My
baby has my long torso to stretch out in,
making me appear much smaller. I started
tiny looking but now I'm good size. So no worries, you
will gain the weight your body needs and
start showing, you might be a lil late
like me but its ok you will pop out, I
promiss. This is also my
first child so my muscles arent stretched
out yet.

lol, I was like that too! I was 17 weeks
and completely flat : ) I was getting
nervous and then over the next couple days
it just popped right out! I felt like one
day I was wearing my favorite jeans and
went to sleep flat and the next day I woke
up with a melon for a tummy and had to
fasten my pants with an elastic!
It's different for everyone so don't worry
about it : )

My best friend was the SAME way!! Even at
her delivery, she barely looked pregnant.
her first son was 6.13, and her 2nd was
5.15. She had them at 38 weeks.
She was SUUUPER tall, and Super thin, so
you couldn't see a bump until she was
about to pop!! And even then she was
tiny!!
Don't worry! Count yourself as lucky!!
LOL!

my daughter-in-law gained 12 lbs. but
never showed at all during the whole time.
she wore the same size jeans the whole way
through. i think alot of it is your body
structure.

I'm still in my pre pregnancy jeans. So a
lot of it has to do with how much you gain
as well!!
If you gain 60lbs, it doesn't guarantee a
big baby!! LOL!! (wish I would have known
that the *1st* time around!!)
