Thought I would ask the experts,

I am 13 1/2 weeks pregnant and noy showing yet. This is my first pregnancy (that made it this far) but I thought I would see something by now. Should I be worried?

When I was pregnant with my first, I didn't show until I was at least 6 months. This is my 7th pregnancy (2 dd's & 4 m/c's). I am only 8w5d & I am already showing. I wouldn't worry about it. Your uterus isn't stretched out yet. You will start showing eventually.

Hugs, Melissa

My friend is 18 weeks along and still isn't in maternity clothes. I have seen plenty of belly shots of women 20+ weeks who don't look pregnant at all yet. Believe me, I know how eager you probably are to start showing because I am the same way, but I really don't think it is a sign of a problem at all!

With my first pregnancy (which resulted in my hero, 2.5 yr old Crane!), I walked down the aisle (hee hee hee) at 17+ weeks and no one could tell I was PG!!

Every woman is different. With my first pregnancy I couldn't tell until closer to 16 weeks and then I didn't really look pregnant until around 22ish weeks. There is a lady I work with, who is thin mind you, and I just now can tell she's even remotely pregnant. She isn't even in maternity clothes yet and she's about 18 weeks along. It takes longer w/ your first one too. Enjoy it while it lasts I guess! Soon enough you'll be huge and waddling around.

No, you are totally fine! Some people might show a little early, but most show probably around 16/17wks...and even then it doesn't always look like pregnancy! You are OK!

I am 13 weeks with my first as well. My stomach is distended (more on top), but where the baby is I am not actually showing. I am getting anxious. I waited so long for this and I am so excited. I felt better when I read your post. At least I am not the only one that feels this way. We just need to be patient I guess ;)
