Where is my bump?!

[HoneyBev]

I would've thought by now that I would have a solid bump... But I guess not. :/ beyond jealous of all of you ladies with beautiful bellies! Does having a small belly mean baby will be small? I'm 5'2 and weigh 130 atm, 110-115 prepregnancy... So I AM gaining weight. Just not sure where :/

baby is just hiding. I'm a smaller person about the same as you pre pregnancy, but about 2 inches taller. with my second I didn't show that much until later and she came out 7 lbs 9 oz, my OB was pretty surprised.

You're lucky!! Your little bump is so cute! I'll be 20 weeks on Friday and I have NO bump. Most of my coworkers have no idea I'm pregnant. I've only gained 1lb so far! One of my coworkers is 4 weeks ahead of me and she has a big bump everyone's always asking her if she's due soon...and then asking me if everything is alright? Have I had an ultrasound? What does the doc say? I totally get your jealousy lol but try not to worry! I've stopped

Your bump is the cutest! My coworkers don't see my bump, but I feel wide!! And my belly never poked out like it does now. But I'm hoping for a huge look like I'm having triplets bump. Lol well maybe not. But I want something nice to rub on.

Like the other ladies said, your bump is seriously the cutest! I was barely showing until 20 weeks - No-one could tell at all. Suddenly it seemed to pop out over night. Don't worry - Enjoy it for now. ;-) Baby'll pop up sooner or later.

You have the cutest bump! Baby is just hiding, one of these days your belly is going to pop out an surprise you

A little neat bump is lovely hon, you are lucky!! I was the same as you, I'm a lot taller than you (5'7) but was always a size 8 (UK) before having DS1, my bump was very small, so much so that the midwife sent me for a growth scan as she was worried. He was born at 40+5 weighing a whopping 8lb12

I get where you're coming from! When I was pregnant with DD I did not show at all until 28 weeks. I was a couple days past 28wks and I woke up one day just HUGE. I even felt the need to push out my tummy when I was around people who knew I was pregnant so that they wouldn't keep asking me if I'm "really pregnant"

You have such a lovely neat bump don't worry-it'll get bigger in time, you must just have awesome stomach muscles (wish I did! )

I started off 120lbs last time, gained 23lbs and still had an 8lb baby at 39+0 - so no! The bump will come. I had a boost around 25wks and then a massive spurt at 36wks when I put on 10lbs of my weight in the last 3wks. A small bump has its advantages - less back pain, being able to paint your toenails, put shoes on...

Thanks ladies! All of your comments made me feel a lot better. And I hear you about pushing your belly out!! I feel like doing that often and make sure I eat a HUGE meal before going anywhere really lol kind of sad, hey?

Hopefully you're all correct and I pop soon! This will be my only child, so I'd really like to be able to feel and enjoy being pregnant! Thanks again xx

This is my second and I look the same as you, I hardly showed at all with dd also. She was a solid 7ib12, usually has nothing to do with size of baby, just placement of uterus.

I was barely showing at 20 weeks with my first. Now with my second I'm huge! I mean it's kind of fun to have a bump that sticks out because it makes me feel proud. But at the same time there's nothing wrong with a small bump either! If you have a longer torso you might not show as early since there's more room for baby vertically. Anyway your bump is cute and I'm sure it will grow much more in the last half of your pregnancy!

Cute bump! My coworker was in disbelief that I am 4 months because I am small like you. Just looks like I ate a big lunch lol
Hopefully small bumps will mean less stretching and less chance of stretch marks....... I'm hoping

Your bump is so cute!! I'm also 5'2" and I don't have a bump at all. I have even less of one than you do. Just keep waiting for it and I bet it'll pop up overnight haha
