Don't worry about only having a small bump i had my baby 10wks ago and hardly showed until i was 6 months (i didn't fine out i was pregnant until i was 5months as i didn't show at all an no symptoms either) an my baby came out beautiful an healthy at 7lb :-) i also got no stretch marks from only carrying small an the weight came off almost straight away after the birth so your one of the lucky ones like i was

You are going to be fine im sure the doctor would tell you if different. I know girls who you would think they are only about 5 months and almost due. I was huge i walked in the hospital at 7 months and they wanted to check me in even tho my husband was the sick one. Lol less weight you can less you have to loose.

I'm pregnant with my first also. They say women show smaller with their first. If there was a problem with your weight or how the baby was growing your ob would tell you. As long as your making your appointments don't let it stress you

When my mom had me she only looked 3 months pregnant. The same with my step mom too. When she went to the hospital they told her she can't be in labor. It took them an hour before taking her to a room. This was after they asked her when she was due and she told them 5 days ago. Then they moved fast.

I'm the same exact way! except in due next saturday lol , I look like im 5 or 6 months. alllll I do is eat, granted sometimes it's not the healthiest, but my doctor is fine with the weight I've gained (about 25lbs) so far. and he thinks my baby is a normal weight as well. :) everyone's different in pregnancy, this is also my first.
if it concerns you a great deal you can always ask your doctor about it ! congrats :)
