im 16 and i am a size 0 too and theres no way in hell-o you could tell i was preg at 9 weeks
if she thought she was howing she was just bloated from gas because you dont start showing until the baby starts growing and your uterus gets bigger
at 9 weeks its way too early

I started to show at 20 weeks but just a little bit, if you diddnt know me then you prolly wouldnt have noticed at that point. I'm at 36 weeks now and I actually really blossomed lol. Considering I weighed 105 at start and had a wash board stomach I was very pleased to see that I got as big as I did now. I now look like I've swallowed a basketball and then some and I finally weigh a normal healthy weight of 147. I hope I don't lose much weight affter my baby is born because I don't wanna weigh 105 ever again and look so thin! I'm 25 now so I want to look like a woman and not an akward skinny teenager lol. But anyways I really began showing at 24 weeks along, thats when my belly protruded forward and out on the sides, became very rounded in the weeks that followed and is still quite round now. Smile Can I say hello to a size 7-9 now and goodbye to a size 0 forever? I hope so! I absolutly love my new baby body, I look so curvy and pretty finally. All those ppl who gave me a hard time about wearing a size 0 from the age of 16-25 can kiss my butt lol cuz now I'm thicker and fuller and much curvier then ever and unlike most women I'm happy about it. Smile

I'm 21wks and my stomach is starting to get hard. I'm really not showing yet, I'd say another 2 months and I'll be noticeably pregnant. Most people say 30wks, so that's what I'm shooting for.

I noticed my belling getting bigger around 23 weeks or so, but it wasnt really visible to other people until about 30 weeks. And my tummy NEVER went hard, it was BIG but still all squishy and wobbly.

a month of being pregnant basically nothing has happened

Your baby would have to be MASSIVE to show a month after getting pregnant. A month after getting pregnant isnt the 'baby' about the size of a 10 cent peice? Or in Americans case a quarter dollar ( i think thats what they are)?
Thats not big enuff to be the baby bump showing, thats gas showing.
