Default Not Showing w/ Multiples

At first I was hoping this pregnancy would be like my previous with DS and I would not show until later.
But after looking at other twin mommy's pics...they all had definite baby bumps by 10 to 12 weeks.
I am now 11 weeks and barely showing at all. I am starting to worry...do I still have both babies...are they growing O.K....
Anyone else not show with multiples until late in pregnancy?
Here is my 11 week pic...

Thank you once again ladies!

I definately think everyone is different. I have 2 friends who both didn't find out they were having twins until their 18-20wk US. Neither of them were showing yet at that point. I didn't even believe it was possible for them to have 2 healthy babies in there. I was huge by that point! Try not to worry about how big your belly is now. You'll start showing soon enough!

I agree with Kenzie! You are small built too so it may take a little longer but trust me it will come and then you will wish you could stand for more than 5 minutes without dying in pain!!

Trust me...I am not wishing to "show"...I just get myself all worried that something is wrong...if I knew my babies were perfectly fine...I would be rejoicing the fact that I am so tiny. LOL

Here is a little video of my belly week by week. I had triplets and wasn't really showing until 12-13 weeks. I am sure all is fine

It was not obvious to others that I was pregnant until 18-19 weeks. Then I suddenly "popped"! I didn't find out I was having twins until my 20 week u/s. I am also small framed so it may just hit you all at once as well! Try not to stress!

I outgrew my pants by 14 weeks but didn't start really showing until about 18 weeks - just had that chubby look. Be glad you are not getting huge right away - you'll have time to grow plenty big!

You look like a petite build in your photo so I would attribute you not showing to being small in the first place. Unlike me and my wide hip self I was showing immediately. I think you are fine and as Darie said I am sure you are the type that will suddenly "pop" out one day.

I didn't start to gain weight or get a bump until after 15 weeks. Most twins mom's don't measure ahead until about 15-20 weeks. So it's normal to look like your only pregnant with one for the first few months.

Like PPs, although I felt thick myself, I didn't show early. I was easily hiding the bump at work at 16 weeks.
