I wish. I'm so huge people are shocked I'm not due until February 🤦🏻🫣😮‍💨. It's so weird how different pregnancies can be from one woman to another!

@Kyla haha I know, I’m telling you, I was 37 weeks pregnant with my son last time & no one knew either, it’s always like this for me , which is crazy, the baby is big like the right size so makes no sense LOL

I don't know what would be better. It's embarrassing to feel like a whale and have people tell you you're big, but it's probably similarly embarrassing the other way. Ugh. Can you at least move ok still? I'm almost in full waddle mode.

I’m annoyed when people tell me that they can’t tell I’m 6months pregnant like they haven’t noticed I’ve already gained 22 pounds! But i do show more depending on the day and depending on what I’m wearing!

@Tiffany haha omg yesss, I gained like 20 😂😂😂 I’m like so your saying I look the same? Thanks I guess, lmfao the struggle.

Same here. Baby is big for her gestational age. Yet my belly is tiny unless I’m super bloated/constipated. Sometimes I let it sag and poke out just to look pregnant. She’s honestly more of a baby blob than a baby belly. 🤣 I haven’t even bought any maternity clothes aside from a couple pair of bike shorts. I just got a couple of those button extenders for my jeans because everything but the button feels fine. I’m also 5’8” and have been thin since birth so I’m not entirely surprised but a little annoyed actually. Oh and people are constantly questioning my diet which is super annoying. My in-laws have asked me multiple times if I was told to change my diet. My OB said I probably have one of the healthiest diets possible for pregnancy. 🤦🏼‍♀️

@Kyla I waddle at times, struggle to turn in my sleep, and get up off the floor lol but I still work out & walk a lot & move fast, but I still have my pregnancy cons, even though I don’t show , so people prob think like oh she’s fine but like damn I been going through this pregnancy chasing my toddler all the time so I guess I got use to it 😂😭

@Eliza lol yess I’m still wearing my tight leggings from before pregnancy, no maternity clothes here either 😂😂 but yeah tbh I don’t even think diet matters of size?! Like if your belly is small it’s small if it’s big it’s big , it all depends how our uterus is too! I already have an anterior placenta as well lmao

Yea I definitely feel that. I am going to be 27 weeks soon and I definitely dont look it. I hate when people tell me that I don't look it.

no i wish, everyone keeps telling me how big i am already and im due in february 😭😭

@Kyla honestly though, I wouldn’t say it’s embarassing at all, it’s more like people should keep their comments to themselves cause it’s annoying & they know nothing, lmao

I guess the good thing is the rest of me is relatively skinny so when I put on a tight tshirt I do show a little. 😅 And I have an anterior placenta too. Supposedly I wasn’t supposed to be able to feel the baby early because of it, but I started feeling flutters at around 11 weeks and tiny kicks by 14. Now she wales me up. My last ultrasound tech said I likely feel her so much because I’m carrying small. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Omg, that is exactly right! I'm sure they don't realize how unintentionally hurtful it is 🫣

Someone who knew I was 6mo pregnant asked me if I was showing yet. In person, they were looking right at me. Wasn’t sure how to answer that, just said “Um, I think so”
