Thanks ladies for your coments. I'm a bit relieved. I think my baby is lying across my belly like mandy38's baby and that's why my bump is in the  bottom section.  

Thanks again ladies.

I wouldn't worry!  Like you said, everyone carries differently.  I tend to gain a lot, but my body really hides it.  Yesterday I was in the mall shopping in the maternity store and saw this woman with a HUGE belly and thought to myself, "She must be due any day!"  The clerk asked me when I was due and when I told her "May 6th" I noticed the other pregnant woman's eyes get big.  The clerk commented that I didn't look that far along.  

Anyway, as I was leaving I noticed that the woman was wearing a pin that said "Due in May 2009."  It turns out I was further along than she was!  But, I wouldn't be surprised if she's gained less weight even though I look smaller.  We're just all different.

My baby is lying transverse, so that's across the belly, therefore my belly is not particularly high, it's all in the bottom section of the belly.  I wouldn't worry about that!
