If it's your first then you may not feel anything for a couple more weeks. Then you'll start to feel little butterflies. With my first I didn't really show until I was 6 months and didn't feel lots of movement until I was around 22 weeks. I'm now 18 weeks with my second and feeling like I have bubbles in my tummy sometimes. I've put on two kg not sure what that is in pounds but it's normal. And I'm not as big now as I was with my first bub. I think my body was in shock the first time...lol!  But this time I didn't know until I was almost 17 weeks, I'm only small and was going to the gym 3-4 times a week then suddenly I had a little pot belly. No morning sickness at all. I'm one of the lucky ones I guess. Good luck everyone!

I'm 18 weeks too, I'm showing (a lot) but I haven't felt anything yet.. But whenever I go to my appointments my baby is moving around like crazy.. I've just been impatiently waiting to feel something (:

well ive lost 10 pounds so far, i'm 15+4 weeks right now and i am showing some already and i thought it was a lil weird for one bc im not very far along n ive lost weight but most of pants are too tight still so i have a feeling this pregnancy will be just like my last i was huge with my daughter looked like i had gained 90lbs but only gained 19 with her.

Ftm :) not showing at all. People keep asking me if I just found out... gah. So frusterating. I'm 18 freaking weeks! Ive gained ten pounds and its all in my stomach. But I'm not even showing yet. Its just flub. Lots of flutters though at random times of the day - mostly at night but I haven't been feeling her as much as I use too, :( I cant wait until I feel her kick all the time!!!

I'll be 15 weeks tomorrow & can barely tll that I'm preg.  I thought I felt a few little flutters but I'm not sure.  I asked my dr about my size, since I've only gained 1 lb, he said  uterus size was perfect & baby is actually measuring a little bit bigger.   I can't wait to look preg & feel regular movements.
