turned 16 and still feel like i never hit puberty properly

so i just turned 16 like three weeks ago and idk i’m starting to feel kinda hopeless about my body. i always thought the changes would just come eventually but they never really did
i got my period a month before i turned 13 so it’s not like i’m a late bloomer or anything, but i’m still quite flat chested, no curves, no wider hips, nothing that makes me look like i actually developed. still just look the same as i did years ago. im 149cm and 43kg for reference. seeing other girls my age who look so much more grown up makes me feel like something’s wrong with me and i understand everyone develops differently but as my birthdays in september most people in my year are like months younger than me so that makes me feel so much worse about it. has anyone else been in the same boat and actually started changing later or is this just how some of us stay?
would really appreciate hearing if anyone relates
