Is my bump too big?

Question

I am 16 week pregnant and when i tell people they all make comments on how big my belly is. I was 55kg at the beginning and im 59 now and starting to feel ashamed every time someone comments that i look more like 6 months pregnant!!!
My bump is high and hard, definitely a bump, not fat, and I absolutely adore it!
I have an anterior placenta, which im sure plays a role in the size of my belly, but im really tired of people commenting!

Answer

Don’t compare your bump to others everyone grows differently. I think you look great x

Answer

Im 16 weeks too. I don't wear alot of form formfitting clothes(never have liked them) so people don't really know I'm pregnant. I've even lost weight(25ish lbs) and was slowly losing last time I checked. I've had people at work ask if I'm losing weight i just tell them yes,they don't know I'm pregnant. It makes me sad though cause i definatly have a little bump and you can see when i wear tight clothes. I hate when people comment on a bump size!

Answer

Looks perfect to me hunny :) 
There's no hard and fast rule about how a pregnant stomach should look. I've seen 16 week pregnancies have almost flat stomachs and conversely fully rounded stomachs with no doubt at all that a lady is pregnant.
I'm 16 weeks 3 days and like you, my stomach is rounded and it's easy to tell at a glance that I'm pregnant. 
Be proud hunny, you're growing a little human and showing it off to the world. Smile sweetly when someone says they thought you were 6 months or you look too big and reply "thanks! Means I'm doing my job properly" and walk away. 💜💜

Answer

My bump looks the same as yours at 17 weeks. I always had a bloat before pregnancy so I am sure half of it is just bloat. I get comments like “wow you are big” “you look like you are more than 6 months” it’s whatever now 🤷🏻‍♀️ I Went from 145lbs to 169lbs but I am just happy baby is safe and healthy.

Answer

Everyone’s body shows differently. I don’t see how people don’t know that’s rude and hurtful! You look beautiful momma! Embrace it and who cares what they say!

Answer

So I asked my doctor where exactly baby was sitting, she showed me on the ultrasound that her head is right under my belly button, she also mentioned that your uterus is much bigger than the actual baby which is why I feel so massive. I’m 17 weeks and 2 days. All bumps are normal and your baby at 16 weeks is growing at an incredible pace!

Answer

Mine is about your size and I’m only 14 weeks so... 😆
