No-show

Based on my last period, I am about 14 weeks along. I haven't seen the doctor yet, but will on April 6. I am not showing whatsoever, and I'm getting freaked out, bc I see all these pics of women 12+ weeks with bellies already sticking out. This is my first pregnancy, so Idk what's normal for me (hence the late Dr appt.. had no idea I was expecting, sometimes stress makes me skip periods). But I wanted to know if any other women started showing late, and how late is ok? I know ob-gyn will tell me if everything's ok, but I can't wait that long to find out! Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Oh, thank you ladies! I've just never been here (pregnant) b4 and I'm stressing over too much. Your posts help with the bump issue. I've gained the 5 lbs I was supposed to for the first trimester, but none went to my belly, lol. Thx again.

Don't worry your fine women who are showing at 12 weeks are bloated. It's not their baby bump. With my first I didn't start showing till around 20 weeks or so and about 16 weeks with this pregnancy.

I'm 18 weeks and barely have a little bump.  I have had 3 scans and the baby is just fine. Every women is different.  Don't compare your bumps to other people's because our bodies all act a little different.
