Am i being paranoid...

Good morning ladies.

Im 16 weeks exactly today and feel fine. Usual pains (nipples are sore and back hurts) i was looking in the mirror today (like everyday) and i feel like my belly has gotton smaller!

My pelvis atill feels massive so i assume baby is ok, i havent had any unusual aches or pains, im just wondering if its me being silly or i should actually be worried.

I have my 2nd midwife appointment tommorow, so im hoping that everything goes ok. If she listens to the heartbeat, that would be very reassuring.

Anythig to stop me worryig will be great!

Xx

It is normal that sometimes it seems like the tummy is smaller. It depends on how the baby sits. In my case it always looked smaller in the morning and somehow bigger in the evening!

O really! Ok so i can stop panicking haha. Thanks for that. I guess baby has decided to sit in a different way today then! X

Yep, I'm 18weeks and I look almost 'normal' in the mornings. Give it an hour and I'm definitely looking pregnant again! ;)

I've definitely had days where it has felt like the bump seems smaller. I think the way the baby is laying at the time has a big effect on how the bump feels. And it's normal to have little panics about stuff more than you usually would. Just try and chill until tomorrow....then you'll see it's all ok x

I didn't start showing until I was 21weeks and felt no movement so was worried. Try not to worry. Buy a doppler for at home it is the best purchase I have made for this pregnancy after mc.
