its common, some of the mums at the school did'nt even know i was pregnant til i showed up with my son in his pram!
it is sooooooooo normal,, don't worry at all,, some people don't show till they are 7 month , don't worry,,,
20 weeks is about 5 months.
you got plenty of time to get fat.
dont worry
Yes, its normal. Women have been known to carry for 9 months and not even notice. You will soon be wishing the bump was small towards the end of the pregnancy. If there was anything wrong you would already know about it. And once you see the scan you will be well happy. When i went for my first scan with my wife, they said something along the lines off. ''i am just going to see if there is more than one'' The thought had never even crossed my mind. Just something else to think about. Good luck. And remember that gel they put on your tummy is cold.
Gurl I wear a size 0 and 105 lbs when I was pregnant with my son at 6 months I only went up to a size 1 and gained 8 lbs. you'll gain majority of da weight and belly will grow alot more in the last 2 months, atleast mine did. I looked like I swallowed a basketball lol. I gained 21 lbs and went upto a size 7 total and 11days after my son was born I lost all the weight and back to my normal size.
no thats normal i was exactly the same with my first child everyone kept asking me if i really was pregnant when i returned after christmas as soon as i walked into the room someone shouted we know who ate all the turkey at 71/2 months i just shot out so don't worry.

Congratulations and good luck
well Congratualations and dont worry ull b fine x
I haven't had children yet but when my mum had me she was like you - VERY small bump until 2 wks before I was born, don't panic UR little 1 will be fine :-)
Yes, it's normal. Relax and enjoy your pregnancy. Good luck with your new baby!
that's 5 months right? so at that time normally you can see the highest point of your bump at around your navel.. but some ppl do not show that much.. as some of them testified.. you're probably one of those lucky preggy moms.. :)
Don't worry hun, it is normal ..every woman is different . As you're quite slim, it will probably take a while for your " bump" to show, a friend of mine was 8 months pregnant and had a bump that could have been mistaken for 3-4 months pregnant ! Needless to say that when baby did come along, it weight a healthy 7 pounds and everything was fine.
Your midwife will reassure you on Tuesday , but please don't worry .The size of your bump doesn't mean anything, I was HUGE when I was pregnant, I was taller lying down than standing up.but my second baby only weight 5.4 pounds, so you see.size of bump means nothing ,
Hope that helps, take care .
Hi Diane, yes it's quite normal for a first pregnancy. Good luck to you and your family. Please let us know how your scan goes on Tuesday. XX
i have 3 kids and they grow slow at first but give it a few more weeks or a month and u well get bigger
Diane, you are perfectly normal. I laughed when I read your cute question. Have a great experience with your pregnancy, and eat healthy, the baby will take what it needs from your body, so listen to your body if it tells you it needs something. That's what they call 'cravings' Good luck, Ron
With my first I wasnt showing until almost 7 months pregnant, then I just "popped" out. So yes, your normal. Rest easy momma! Congrats on your new little one. :)
you were small and this your first, this is normal,in the last few months baby do all there grow a lot ,size 8, you don't want to get to big, I bet you'll have a beautiful baby,keep all your doctor appointments ,eat lots of fruits and veg.take your vitamins don't worry, pray for a normal,healthy happy baby.
You're ok. I didn't show with my second one until close to 7 months. She was a small baby. Came out 6 pds. You'd know if something was wrong I'd think. I used to panick if I didn't feel them kicking me for a day or so. Good luck with everything.
Absolutely normal - we're all different and you may find you don't have much of a bump.then again you will probably wake up one day and think 'where the heck did that come from' and you will be able to walk around with your baby belly sticking out and be proud.

Your scan will go fine and it'll be nice to get a new picture. Good luck with it all.
perfectly normal i was an 8 no one noticed until I was about 7 months and even then i had a small football shape at the front and could hide it well. im sure its nothing to worry about
congratulations
