I'm 31 weeks on Thursday and also carrying small. I've gained 5lbs my entire pregnancy and my son is measuring 31 weeks 3 days. I like my little belly.

Im 36 weeks and someone thought I was 5mos. Ive been told since the beginning of this pregnancy by different US techs and doctors that my son has been measuring bigger for his size which I find interesting. Im uncomfortable/miserable due to the size of my belly so I can't imagine it being bigger than it is.

I agree everyone is different. If your doctor isn't worried then don't worry either. I have only gained 5 lbs at 32 weeks and only measure 26 weeks. My baby is great though and measures 32 weeks 3 days. My doctor says I'm one of those rare cases that will be all baby.

I believe that bc my baby has been more oz than what the pregnancy app says it should weigh.

They say that women who have small bellies usually have bigger babies than those who have big bellies

As long as your doctors tell you everything Is good than dont worry. I had a 6 pack in my ABS till I was 6 months and I never exercised the whole pregnancy. I thought I was small too Im 35 weeks and have gained 17 pounds total.  When they measure you and you measure close to the weeks of ur pregnancy and the doctors tell u ur Fine dont stress everyones different. Just contiune to eat healthy dont try to over eat unless they tell u to gain more. Hope I was helpful.
