Pregnant .. not getting big ?

Question

almost 4 months pregnant and im not showing alot ? is this normal ? can people go through there whole pregnancy not showing alot ?

Answer 1

no I was about 4 and a half months before I was showing. I thought there was something wrong too but I ended up with a nine n a half pounder little boy so u shouldn worry hun.

Good luck for the mummy years x

Answer 2

i'm 30 weeks and it's only been the 5 weeks that you can actually see that i'm pregnant-we're lucky xx

Answer 3

my mum said she hardly showed until she was 7 months!

Answer 4

I was not showing till I was about 5 1/2 to 6 months with the 3 of mine.  

Answer 5

Some people go forever without showing- I didnt show the slightest until around 5 1/2 months- and unless you knew me- you couldnt tell jack. :)

If the doctor says your fine- then jusst relax.

Answer 6

i didnt show during my pregnancy! and as a size 8 i was quite concerned, i only went o a size 10! But it is possible hun!  

Answer 7

I gave birth to my 5lb3oz daughter at 37 weeks, and honestly, if I wore a loose fitting top, you wouldnt have noticed I was pregnant. My bump never protruded past my b***s.

I turned up to the hospital and the security guard said 'where are you going?'

'Maternity ward'

'Sorry, visiting hours are over'

'Errrrr...no. Im in labour'

Some people just carry very small. Everyone told me I was going to explode and get massive suddenly, but I never did.  

Answer 8

hang in thea i ain't start showing til 6 months i couldn't wait til i got big .... now I'm 33 weeks and I'm ready to be back lil.....  good luck

Answer 9

i was quite big at 4 months but my friend was pregnant the same time as me and she only found out at 5 months and hadnt put any weight on, she started showing properly at 6 months but she soon caught up!

Answer 10

At four months some women still do not show. I didn't start 'noticibly' showing until about 22 weeks.

Answer 11

Don't speak so soon...you might just starting to show, but give it a few more weeks, and you can quickly go from "barely noticeable" to "totally noticeable".  Most people start showing after 22 weeks....

Answer 12

I did ok until about 20 weeks and then my poor abs gave up and I got a divarication - back to normal now though!

Answer 13

Yes that is normal.  I did show at about 3 months, my friend who was pregnant at the same time didn't show until about 5 months.  I was bigger all the way through than her and she ended up having a baby 2lbs heavier than me.  It just depends on your frame, height and how much water etc you carry too.  If your doc/midwife says you are fine than go with it, they know what they are doing.  Good luck.  

Answer 14

i never showed til about 20 weeks

Answer 15

My sister is due in a couple weeks.  For the first 5 months of her pregnancy, she didn't show at all and only gained about 10 pounds.  By her 7th month she had gained almost 30 pounds and was very noticeably showing.

Answer 16

Yes there have been cases where the woman didn't show at all. This was because of good muscle tone and room inside. Don't worry just enjoy your pregnancy

Answer 17

When i was four months you couldnt tell in the slightest, but the baby is tucked in there somewhere dont worry!

It's different for everyone but you will show soon.  for me it was a good 6 months plus

Answer 18

one of my best friends didn't show AT ALL until she was about 7 1/2 months pregnant... she is super skinny.

on the other hand, when i was pregnant with my son, i was already showing at 2 or 3 months, alot! But i blame most of the 1st trimester weight gain on quitting smoking.

Answer 19

If this is your first pregnancy, then yes - it's totally normal to be 4 months pregnant and not look like it.  Lots of first-time moms don't really show until their 5th or even 6th month.

I'm almost 22 weeks along, and I still don't really look pregnant. I've only gained 4 or 5 pounds, and I just look slightly thicker through the waist than usual. No one who doesn't know me would have any idea that I'm pregnant.  People expected me to start showing sooner because i'm short and thin, but this is my first pregnancy and I had really tight abs...two things that would cause me not to show for a while. I'm sure I'll look like I've swallowed a soccer ball in a couple of months, though! :-)

As long as you're feeling well and your doctor says you're healthy, don't worry!  

Answer 20

lots of women hardly show at all for ages.  Some people get to nine months and look like they have swallowed a football.  it's just how your body is, you might show alot more soon. just depends entirely on you, if you would like to show abit more help yourself to some extra ben and jerrys.  only get the excuse to put on weight when your pregnant, so why not use it?

Blessed be

Answer 21

I would not worry too much yet. I was still loosing weight at 5 months. I went down about 10 pounds and you could barely tell i was pregnant. After that then you might have a problem. Talk to your doctor or mid wife and see what they think. :) and Congrats!
