Should I be concerned?

I'm 19 weeks as of tomorrow, I have a baby bump but my friends who are mothers constantly tell me I am very small.. I have a friend who is 21 weeks pregnant and she is much bigger than me. Should I be concerned? Is something wrong?

I wouldn't be I'm 28 weeks and my doctor tells me I'm small but my baby is healthy and at a perfect weight.... With my first child I didn't really show at all until I was about 7 months.... Maybe your having a boy.. They say with boys you don't gain as much weight(:

No nothing is wrong and you do not need to be concerned. A small or big belly does not mean anything.
