my bump is tiny - is this normal?

Your tummy is probably more toned and holding everything in, so dont worry at all. It is a lovely bump, you will be getting your 20 week scan soon and that will reassure you properly. In another few weeks you will probably just pop!!

All the best x x

thank you ladies - i guess i am just feeling extremely jealous of everyones lovely round bumps and getting fed up of people saying i don't have a bump when i am practically half way there! The 20 week scan has been a long time coming (not until 2nd sep) so hopefully will feel better once i have seen that. I mean, i still wear my size 8 jeans for crying out loud! the top button may well be undone now, but they are still going on!

i keep checking every morning to see if i have popped but no luck yet - will keep checking! xxx

I am 23 weeks and have a very small bump. Still in my size 12 clothes with all the buttons done up. Midwife said because I am fairly tall 5ft 8" and still do exercise 3 times a week that my stomach muscles are holding everything in. Had my 20 week scan and everything going along smoothly. Just guess we are the lucky ones, so lets hope it stays that way :-)

You're bigger than I am, and we're at the same point.

lovely bump Mrs RJ! x

grrr I hate it when people comment on your bump in a negative way!

smartie · Aug 27th, 2009, 09:25 AM

I know how you feel. People sound quite surprised when I tell them how far along I am, they just look at my tummy and say "Really!" almost like they dont believe me, lol!

This is my second baby and I got the same the first time round too

i think your bump looks just lovely. this is my 2nd pregnancy and i am still wearing my pre pregnancy clothes (well, tops are in a bigger size due to my huge boobies

) but i am still getting into my size 12 bottoms and button and zip up! I would say your bump is just perfect.
