Me too, I’m also 28 weeks, and feel the same way!😢😢im size 16/18 tho so I don’t feel pregnancy bump feeling as I had a little chub before hand, my partner says he sees a difference in a good way, and he sees me everyday! Just know you’re beautiful and we’re carrying beautiful babies! Xxxx

@Liv🧑‍🧑‍🧒❤️ glad I’m not the only one lol but very true as long as the babies are healthy it’s all that matters 🫶

The bigger the bump the more weight you carry and added aches and pains. At first I couldn’t see the significant bump growth until clothes stop fitting. It’s so important not to compare your baby bump with others. Your bump is the right size for your body and build. Also some bumps you may see, those mothers may be on the 2nd or 3rd pregnancy or even carrying multiples and so their bumps have already done the growing and contracting, whilst yours/our bumps are on pregnancy 1. All I can say is enjoy the bump your body made for your baby because only you did that for your baby. The growth you hope for will come eventually, I have enjoyed taking bump pics just for myself and seeing how I fill out 1 crop top and short set each month. No matter the slightest change I feel so proud and excited and I hope you will feel that way too. * not suggesting you aren’t proud, but hoping the sad is replaced with a positive feeling

Yup, I'm 30 weeks and have a smaller bump than my friend who is 22 weeks! We were both the same size (8-10) pre pregnancy. My bump is just small...baby is bang on average. I'm also carrying high so I think that makes me look a bit barrel shaped and my bump doesn't look like a cute pregnancy bump. It's only in the last two weeks(ish) that I started to look pregnant and not like I'd let myself go!

Hehehe.. I also feel this at the antenatal class.. I’m just comparing with others around my EDD. But my partner feels we are all similar. I think it’s my body dysmorphia fooling my eyes.

Honestly please don’t worry, my first pregnancy I was the same and got to 37 weeks and was bigger and really struggled. I was very grateful I wasn’t big from and earlier week. Where as this time round I’m much bigger and am really struggling much more

With my first baby I was the exact same I didn’t have a bump at all until I got near the end of my pregnancy x

My bump is much bigger second baby than it was my first . Plus I’m in so much more pain and struggling a lot more than my first
