Bump size

I’ve had numerous comments like this my second baby! lol I just laugh cos I thought it might have been twins too before scans x

I think everyones bump looks bigger after eating! I am 18 weeks and 2 days today but I know when I have eaten all day I look much bigger than what I am lol I am just enjoying each day as it comes as it is my first little bubba! But don’t take it too personal! Xx

Your uterus position does make a big difference as well! Mine is forward facing (I know as I had to be investigated for reoccurring miscarriage, you aren't usually told) and so mine grows slightly more forward. I wouldn't take it personally as it's not an insult to look pregnant, but it is ignorant to suggest someone looks either 6 months at 4 months or pregnant with twins

I find my bump is a lot ‘smaller’ in the mornings then I feel so much bigger of an evening. Between food and bloating during the day by the time you get to the evening I believe its quite a common thing to look bigger later in the day.

This is my first pregnancy and I am having constant comments about my body. "Am I sure it's not twins or triplets? Wow you're so massive! You're going to be a real waddler etc etc". I got really upset at my 16 week midwife appointment and actually asked her if there was anything wrong with me as people have been making me feel so awful! My midwife reassured me that I am absolutely fine and that people are just being unkind. It's taken a lot to get to this point and there were times where I never thought I would get this chance to become a mum so I just keep trying to remind myself of this. I just had my 20 weeks scan and there's definitely only one baby, so I've got a long way to go yet of the unhelpful comments. So you're definitely not alone, our bodies are doing incredible things and the least interesting part about it is how our bodies look while we're making and carrying a new life 💕

Actually can’t stand people who make comments like this… try to not let it get to you!
