Wugz, I totally agree with confetti. Everyone is different, and first pregnancies often take longer. I had a decent bump at about 6 1/2 months, but it looked like the bump I have now, at 5 months. Maybe even a little smaller. There's a pic of me at my baby shower, taken 6 weeks before my soon was born (full term), and if it was someone else i would have thought they were only about six months along instead of 8!
Your bump is so low and central, you're probably going to have that basketball look. Mine is more oval, starts up high.....although that had been the case with both my boys too.
You're totally fine. You had your NT scan remember? They would have told you if bubs was small. Being your first, your uterus isn't as soft and it takes longer to stretch.
AFM, yesterday bubs threw a little showdown. Besides balling up and rolling, I've noticed he usually kicks if I'm leaning back in a.chair and them lean forward too quickly, or if i raise my arms and stretch. Well yesterday I was playing him his daily song list on my belly, sitting low in a chair, and kind of leaning back. I reached forward to grab my water and bam! Big kick in the same exact spot he always kicks! As usual it took me by surprise. Anyways, I stretched and started to lean back and got kicked twice more, followed quickly by 2 punches and what felt like a head bop! It all happened so fast, I was cracking up......I'm now getting kicked almost anytime I go from a lean back to a forward position...
I love it though
