Hi,
I'm 18 weeks pregnant with my first baby and although my stomach is hard I'm still not showing slightly
Is this normal?

Hi Meghan! I turned 18 weeks yesterday and don’t really have an obvious bump either - this Is my first! I keep being told that every one is completely different so try not to worry 😘 I think I just look bloated still at the moment haha xx

Totally normal, I started to show about 21 weeks but it's still not overly obvious depending on what I'm wearing. I met up with a couple of friends I haven't since since Christmas yesterday and I had to tell them I was pregnant as they didn't notice, I'm 24 weeks tomorrow Smile

Little late to this but I'm 18 weeks too and although I have a tiny bit of a pot belly I defo don't have any sort of bump or look pregnant. Still in my normal jeans. Everyone else I know who is pregnant/recently had a baby had a verrrrry noticeable bump by now but I just look like I've had a bit of a big dinner! Hopefully we will all pop out soon enough!

It took me forever to get a bump. A lot of factors can affect the appearance of bumps for every woman. I assumed that being quite a small and quite skinny person I would be showing early but it doesn't always work that way. Don't worry :)

I'm 34 weeks and some people still haven't worked it out. Bump sizes and shapes very. Even within the same pregnancy. At the beginning my baby was transverse a lot of the time so bump was flatter. Now it's head down I have a ball attached to the front of me.
