Why am I huge for 25 weeks :(

[Mummy of Ange]

I feel so big for my gestation. My SIL is 32 weeks and I'm twice her size. I'm so fed up with how I look.

Anybody else big so soon xx

 

[Mummy of Ange]

Oh and I have a horrible bump. Looks like too many pies but I've put 18lbs on x

 

[leahtaba]

I feel ya! I am not even 20 weeks yet and I am bigger than my friend whos in her third trimester! Its our second that will be why! Thats my excuse anyway haha! And ur bump isnt horrible clearly a lovely baby bump xx

 

[RileysMummy]

I wouldn't worry, you don't look that big and I'm sure you'd be more concerned if you had a small bump x

 

[LorraineMM]

I think it has alot to do with our bodies individually. Everyone carries different... ive seen a girl i know whos 33 weeks and looks like i did at 18 weeks lol its just different for everyone but no less beautiful. Xxx

I think your bump is lovely!
Everyone is different, I'm 16 weeks and have a noticeable bump already, my friend in work is a tiny bit behind and you'd never know. I am so embarrassed people are always commenting on my bump lol

I'm 19 weeks today, and could easily pass for at least 7 months gone! I know how you feel. People keep asking if I'm sure there's only 1 in there? he he But trying to comfort myself with the fact that many say we are normally bigger 2nd time round. I have my scan in 2 days time, so maybe that'll shed some light

Your bump is lovely I feel huge as well, I know a girl who was nearly 40wks and you couldn't even tell she was pregnant x

 

[Mrsturner]

You look lovely. My sister was so tiny when she was pregnant that a lot of people didn't even realise she was pregnant and were shocked to see her pushing a pram around after my nephew was born!

I was excited at first to be "showing early" but now I'm still only 16 weeks and I look huge. I look the same as I did last time when I was 6 months preggo and it scares me to think how big and uncomfortable I'm going to get in the coming months!

Awww please don't worry about it. People sincerely don't have a clue when they say what they are saying.

I'm big too and this is my first baby. This pic of me was taken at 22 weeks can you believe that I have an anterior placenta and until the other day I hadn't even felt anything!!! How can I be this big and not feel anything

I'm bigger than my friend was when she was full term and I'm getting comments all the time.

Everyone carries differently and as long as you and your baby are healthy then that's what matters. We're not pregnant for a long time so we should be focussing our energies into feeling positive and making sure that that positivity passes through to baby.

You've got a bump because you've got a beautiful child growing inside you and there are lots of people who will be envious of that but they would never say so.

Bumps are mesmerising things because of what they are and what they mean, you will attract attention from strangers, friends and colleagues because being pregnant is just a bizarre, wonderful, natural and 'how the f@&k do we grow human beings inside us' mind bending thought that it just catches everyone's attention.

You cannot change your body or bump and it'll never go away now until after baby is born so try and turn it into a positive than a negative. You look fantastic and you are making a little human being, now that's flippin' amazing

 

[MacBabby]

Oh I thought my pic was on there! Try again

 

[patchey]

Compared to what I have seen, you don't look big for 25 weeks. You look normal to me.

 

[SRTBaby]

I look big and feel big but because my boobs they hide my bell we'll. this week I am showing more, and I didn't have a nice round belly until recently

 

[LaPinska]

one week i will look huge for my gestation the next i will look small. i try not to pay attention to that part because we really all do carry differently and i also hear with your 2nd your bigger too. i'm on my first. body type has a huge impact on this. i look rather funky my belly looks giant sometimes but i'm very slender underneath it and very short.

DF says i look like Mr. Peanut

 

[Ashley8806]

I'm with ya, I'm 19 weeks and look over 6 months But this is baby #3 so I'm attributing it to that lol. With DD2 I got an average bump, then DD#2 I barely showed....this time I'm huge lol ... but surprisingly have lost 10 lbs so who knows what's going on

 

[Ashley8806]

And by the way I don't think you look big at all!

 

[Brassandsass]

Don't be so hard on yourself, you had a baby less than 2 yrs ago, take this as a great thing...the baby has a great place to stretch out and grow

 

[tryfor2]

I honestly don't think you look that big for 25 weeks. These people who make comments--who on earth are they comparing you to? NON-pregnant women??? Perhaps they need reminding that there's an actual human being in there....

I always get a huge belly! I am 15wks and I have a very noticeable bump. At 12 weeks people asked me when I was due It's just how your body carries. I understand your frustration tho. I am right there with ya. Everyone asks me how many I'm having...we are assuming only 1. haha But I was gigantic in the belly with both of my boys so I'm sure this one will be no different. Enjoy your belly. Your gorgeous!
