This is my second pregnancy, with the first I was big anyways so didn't ever really show, but Im also not showing yet with this one, have not gained any weight due to MS and gallbladder issues(baby is measuring fine though!!), and I can still fit into all my regular clothes....just seems weird to me seeing how i'm almost half way through and not even showing a tad. I am thinking it has to do with my lovely extra skin I already have on my tummy area..

i'm just wondering how my extra skin will do with the pregnancy..will it just fill out and I have a round belly, or will I still have the appearance I do now, just a bigger belly??

  Haha, I know this may be TMI but if I raise my tummy skin up I do have a bump, but it disappears as soon as I let go...have mercy on the things we go through to be healthy and thin!! but I sure wouldn't change a thing :)

If anyone wants a "belly buddy" my email is [email protected]

I am right there with you on the skin.  Even now when I am almost done, I have to make my belly look pregnant all the way.  From the belly button up, I look pregnant but down below that, it's really hard to tell because of all of the skin.  The skin I had above my belly button did fill out but the panni did not.  Like you, I can lift up my panni and I have a really round belly but if I let if fall down, it's really hard to tell.  I use a Be-Band from Target and put it under my panni and pull it up and round everything out.  Then I look pregnant.  Good luck to you!!

People honestly didn't know I was pregnant til I was 9 months if I didn't tell them. At about 8ish months some people noticed depending on what I was wearing. But they thought I was more like 5 months along. It was really frustrating to me. My last few shifts at work people were like wow.. you really do look pregnant now. I freaking hope so! I am 38/39 wks!!

As the belly got higher from being farther along it got more of the D bump look. But I always had the loose panni at the bottom. Just depended on how I dressed it if you noticed or not.

I am still all swollen from the c-secton and only had him less than a week ago but I can already tell my panni looks worse. You have to lift and search for the c-secton line. Does not make me feel attractive in the least.
