I think your bump looks perfect! Its such a perfect shape, not too high and not too low..just right

My stomach muscles are not working as good as yours lol mine gave up after my 1st pregnancy lol

I agree bump is perfect! Everybody is different. My sister carried her first baby in her back and middle then with her second straight out in front. It's perfect!

It looks like your baby has grown well above your belly button. You don't have alot of "extras" on you, so it is all baby. Once your baby grows up as far as it can, you will grow out, but if you have strong muscles or a tilted uterus, it might not be as noticable as other woman. If this is your first baby, then you should "drop" a couple weeks before you give birth. If this is a subsequent baby, I think they say you drop right before or during labour. Hope that helps...cute baby bump!

Nice bump

I think your just having a small baby. My uterus looks right on track when im standing up but when i lay down it seems to be lower, only a 2 cms above my belly button.
When i seen my midwife she said i was 1-2 cms small but ive previously had a small baby so looks like thats the case again.

Everyone is different dude and carries differently so don't worry. I think your bump looks just gorgeous!

Well it looks higher than mine ever was last time and my pregnancy, although uncomfortable, was perfect! Your bump will be different depending on your stomach muscles, how tall you are and how many babies you've had. I always wished mine was higher, but it doesn't mean anything is wrong. xx
