My Belly Size!!!

I'm so sick of people making comments about my belly and that I'm tiny for 31 weeks. I went to the drs with the last I take care of and two of the nurses continuously commented on how tiny I was. I just had a sono last Monday and she weighs 3 lbs 12oz. And my Dr said she's either going to be bigger than our 4th or right around the same size. He was 8lbs 15oz. I've gained 24lbs and I was 154 when we got pregnant. It's so frustrating cuz I just want a healthy baby and I hate the comments. People need to just shut their mouths sometimes!!

Im the compleat opposite I am getting comments off people thinking im due any time soon and im only going on 16weeks. Makes me feel so insecure about myself now. Before I was an average sise 14-16 now I can only fit into maternity clothes.

All I can say is atleast you will be able to loose the weight after your little one is born :) xxx

It just gets annoying. I feel huge and my baby is perfectly healthy size right now so the comments just get old really fast.

start thinking is the baby ok...I thought u look pretty good size tho

I've gained a total of 40 lbs and tomorrow is my 40 week mark... My belly is huge though, I've had people at work (customers) ask if its twins and when I say no I get some sorta oh my or holy crap type remark... Funny thing is my friend is bigger than I am and she's a month behind me and about 75 lbs lighter hahaha.

Would you rather someone tell you you look like orca the whale? Take it as a compliment. I'm only 28 weeks and keep getting told how it looks like I'm due any day now.

I've gained only 24lbs so far and with each of my previous pregnancies I've gained between 40-50lbs. So yea I am far off from that but I feel huge lol I waffle like a duck and when I bend over I feel her head in my pelvic area and when she moves one way my belly goes the other way. My Sil had her baby on the 6th and she was huge! I mean she looked like she was having twins and my neice was only 6lbs even. So I'm hoping yea my belly is little but its all baby!

That's what I mean! I'm like...Maybe u should see me naked!! And the funny part was both of the nurses that made the comments were both pregnant and (NO offense to overweight women) very very big. I felt Luke telling them well its gonna be a whole hella lot easier for me to lose the dang weight than its gonna be for u! The first one asked me when I was due and when I told her August she started saying how tiny I was and that she wasn't she until October and she looked like she was due 2 weeks ago! Someone is going to catch me at the wrong time abdomen going to make them cry!!!
