Anxiety about my bump

First off congratulations to you mama!! Having a smaller bump is completely normal especially since it’s your first! And remember everyone shows differently. I was like this with my first then it suddenly popped out once i was closer to the third trimester, and with my second i had an anterior placenta so didn’t feel movements as much until i was further along, and even now im 22 weeks not sure where my placenta is but i feel baby moving around a bunch then it’ll stop and pick up again.

It's totally normal to feel movement and then none for a while. While we're up and about baby tends to be asleep and they wake up when we're resting. Myself for example I feel the baby move most in the morning before I get out of bed, when I'm on the couch in the evening, and when I'm going to sleep. Not much else the rest of the day. You can look into kick counting too, if you haven't already. And as far as the bump goes, there is no "normal." Everyone's body is different. If your provider says everything is good, then don't worry about it. That being said, if you're really worried about something or need reassurance, call your provider. Most will be happy to answer your questions and put your mind at ease

Totally understandable! I found watching week by week pregnancy videos comforting for my first pregnancy. The ones I watched at least went over what was happening with your body, baby, symptoms to expect, and what to expect at next appointments. There's also lots of great YouTube channels run by nurses that I watched if I had more specific questions. I don't know if that would be helpful for you as well, but I found having the information and knowing what was a red flag vs normal eased my mind a lot

Just wanted to let you know I’m a first time mom 23 weeks along as well and these are all things I have also worried about 😅 I have researched and read that you don’t need to be concerned with movement until 28 weeks or so! Which really helped give me peace of mind! You got this 😁
