23 Weeks Pregnant

Hi,

So if you do already know I didn't go for the abortion and I'm now 23 weeks pregnant. I wanted to know how normal it is to be just showing a little bump when I'm nearly 6months pregnant. How big should you be? I'm just abit worried as i feel that the baby isn't growing as much.

Any advice would be so helpful.

It's different for different people, but many say that with the first one the bump is generally smaller. Mine was barely visible at 6 months and now at 8 it's still quite small compared to what I saw others having. As soon as the baby is normal size, it's fine. They just have less space there.

Everyone's bump is different with my baby it wasn't huge first but during the last few weeks my tummy was huge! So don't worry also u can ask your gp during the scan to see how well baby is growing.

Depends could be carry all in your back so the bump hides! If you have any concerns speak to your midwife she could refer you for a growth scan xxx

Hello

It is different for each individual during pregnancy . Some women don’t show a lot and don’t have big bumps others show quite a lot with big bumps. If any concerns please do contact your midwife or your care provider even if it’s just for reassurance xx
