Hun this is my 3rd, I started showing very early and I am feeling flutters, But I dont feel pg either. My belly has softened and shunk a bit in the last few days, maybe I am eating better? But I still dont feel pg as much as I did a few weeks ago. If you have not bled and are not getting lots of cramps, then you most definitely are still pg.
Hey due date buddy! Totally know what you mean. I have had a little 'gut' for a few weeks but today was the first time I have been told I 'look pregnant'. Apart from that I have been feeling so utterly normal that I start to question myself. Sometimes I lie really still and mentally 'listen' in to my belly to see if I can sense something or feel movement but anything that I think I do feel is not really clear or obvious and I end up thinking 'it could just be gas'!
Our time will come my friend... bring on the 20 wk scan!
Im 19 weeks tomorrow with my 1st and still hardly showing...family and friends can tell im pg only bcaus they knew what I looked like before, strangers always give me strange looks when I tell them im 19 weeks! And only in the last week have I been sure the kicks are baby and not gas..hehe! But its often I forget there's a little person in there so don't be worried!! I've been told by many friends to enjoy this time while we can still tie our own shoes!
24w pg and I was told I was still in the "fat" stage - ie no bump!
6-7m pg and people asked why I was getting ready to leave work, had I been made redundant?
30w pg I was told off by a midwife for not being big enough!
9m 1w pg and I was FINALLY asked by a stranger when the baby was coming! I stupidly said "last weekend" and the woman flipped, asking me to leave the shop.
The plus sides were I saved a fortune on maternity clothes and looked fantastic. The down sides were I didn't get any of the special pregnancy treatment!
I think it's normal to not have a huge bump - and it is normal to have one. Whichever one you have, someone will tell you this is a problem. Just don't try to do a sit-up type leap off the bed at 8m pg because you're still quite trim. That isn't comfortable at all.
