Kimbre - Welcome back.
Congrats on the little girl. It's great that you and hubby love the name you've picked out. I've been on the naming thread and that seems to be a common contention point between couples. Hopefully big sister will be a big help when the baby is here. BTW, love your gender reveal pic (can't remember if I commented in the 2nd tri board where I saw it first).
As for the size thing. Don't worry about it. I have been on and off freaked about not getting very big (especially carrying twins!) since first trimester. I'm short, overweight to begin with and this is my first long-term pregnancy which all work against me for showing a beautifully rounded belly at this point (23 weeks). Mornings are also hard for me because I've not had much trouble moving, turning over in bed, or anything which always leaves me with a niggling doubt that I'm still pregnant...until I eat breakfast and the babes go to wriggling about.
Something to keep in mind when you see all those well-rounded pregnant ladies is that you don't know how far along they are. Most people pick up the majority of their weight in third trimester, so we've a ways to get there still. You might also be one of the ones that just carries smaller given your height and long torso; plenty of room for baby to hide. Can you remember when/if you got very rounded with your first?
i can feel her ALL the time! shes very strong and i actually feel her way more than my first DD.
i found photos of me with my first DD and i was DEFF showing and rounded out by like my 22nd week! more than i am now anyway. im unsure i can compare the two though since its 7 years later and with my DD i was not fat but chubby already when i got preg. and i was not fit or healthy at all with her.
up until this baby i was fit and very healthy. now i cant even look at healthy food without wanting to throw up, and by the end of a 10 hour day on my feet i have NO energy to work out anymore. i may workout 2 times a week but thats it.
first photo is me at 22 weeks with my first pregnancyu, second is me at 24 weeks with first.
. Lucy was only six months old when I lost baby alex. Now I am pregnant again she doesnt really understand. She knows all the things in the bedroom are for baby but, i think she forgets as soon as she leaves the room. Only have 3/2 months left to prepare her. I am going to buy her the book the house in mums tummy lol.
