Small?

Question

So, I'm 28 weeks today, and a newer co-worker made a comment that I look too small? Normally, it wouldn't bother me, but it kinda made me nervous just because of 
1.) Lack of weight gain (down 20, gained 7 back)
2.) Lack of appetite
I can tell he's growing, and definitely a kicker, but I can't help but worry! 😭
Send help lol

Answer

Every woman carries differently. As long as your dr is not worried than that is all that matters.

Answer

I think u actually like pretty average for 28 weeks

Answer

You’re not small.

Answer

You’re not carrying on the bigger side but I wouldn’t say you look too small! You look great 😊

Answer

Your coworker is an idiot. Heres me at 28 weeks last pregnancy

And 28 weeks this time, a year later. I weigh the same as I did when I was this far along with my daughter.

Every person carrys different and every pregnancy is different!

Answer

Your belly looks the same as mine. I get told I’m small often too, but I’ve still gained 20 pounds. They were probably just giving you a compliment 😊

Answer

we all carry differently!!! Even with different pregnancies! I’m struggling with this in the opposite, being told I’m getting big as if it’s a bad thing and I have gained 20 lbs but was at a super healthy BMI to begin with so I guess doc isn’t concerned with that . I was TINY with my first and he was so low and tucked away the entire pregnancy, this one is super high and I have felt way huge compared to my first. I’m actually measuring small by two weeks (he dropped off between the last apt and my most recent one) and that’s the only reason I’m worried now. If your doctor isn’t concerned, you have no reason to be either!

Answer

Not too small at all! I’m nearly at 30 weeks and smaller than that and everything is good for my baby. Honestly people will always comment on pregnant womans’ bellies and stick their noses where they don’t belong. If your care provider is happy with your progress, that’s all that matters!

Answer

Girl, I’m 30 weeks in 3 days and sometimes I get the same comments. 
Some days I’m huge, other days my belly is small; my son’s also measuring 2-3 cm bigger than what he should be. Keep in mind, every pregnancy and every woman is different.
Personally, I think you’re the average 28 weeker; your bump is perfect!

Answer

Your stomach looks perfect. They need to stay in their place.
