Showing????
Posted: 01-19-05 16:15pm

I was just wondering is anyone else 16 weeks and not showing. My stomach is still completely flat. I was thin before I pregnant. I just thought I would be showing by now. Is anyone else the same way?

I was also wondering if it normal if I poke my stomach or push on it a little is it supposed to hurt. It doesn't hurt bad. It feels like when you push on a bruise. It is just growing and stretching or is there something wrong?

I also see that you play sports (from your sign name) if you have well developed stomach muscles then it will take longer for you to show. Simply because the muscles as so tight that they hold your growing bump in. Like if someone who has really developed breast muscles and gets breast implants it will hurt far worse than someone who has never worked their pecs. Thats also the reason for the tenderness, because those muscles are not used to being streached.

I'm 22 weeks and every one keeps telling me you can hardly tell i'm pregnant! It is kind of disappointing cause people noticing is one of the joys of being pregnant. I think of it this way, at least you won't have any stretch marks and it will be easier to get your body back into shape after the baby comes.

I think you are all so lucky I ballooned up like a michelin man early on in all my pregnancies from about 12 weeks on I just grew and grew and grew.
Pity that after the birth I did,nt shrink and shrink and shrink lol oh well i,ll just buy my clothes to big as it,s easier to grow into things than to shrink into things :wink:
