Every body is different. I have a friend who is a couple weeks behind me and she is waay bigger than I am. And before we were pregnant she and I were probably very similar in size..I asked my dr about it and she said that as long as you ARE gaining weight and not losing weight then things are good and not to worry too much. Also, I have popped overnight pretty much. At weeks 16-17 I was like "I am not big at all.." and then all of a sudden I woke up at week 20 and I was like "Oh there it is!" But I am still not "huge". Enjoy the small tummy while you can..it won't stay that way! :)

sounds like me - I gained 9 LBs and I think I put about 3 LBS in each boob! haha. I do a have a little belly - but it comes and goes depending on the time of day and what I have eaten. I don't feel like my belly has grown all that much over the last month - but it's hard to really gage - since you see your body every day. You prob don't realize that you are growing. The general mark is a pound a week and you seem right on track for where you should be - you are putting weight on! Just remember that baby is like the size of a turnip - so s/he is not going to make you have a rock hard belly sticking out 10 feet until much later on!

Trust me, there is nothing to worry about, and i'm sure people are starting to guess as you are probably getting rounder and you don't even know it.. It could be worse, if you start showing early then that's all you here "how far along are you? Oh you have a long ways to go" or "are you sure there is only one?" and this way you won't get sick of your maternity clothes. As long as you have regualr check up and the Dr doesn't have any concerns, relax!
