31 weeks

I am hardly showing everyone around me seems to just laugh at my tiny belly. I am 5'6 started of at 147 then lost weight went down to 142 and now I'm back up to 150. I don't look 8 months, people's comments are starting to get to me. They say my baby will come out the size of my Palm. I look more like I am just full of food. Is this normal, my baby does move alot everyday?

Same here girl don't worry about it, are belly mite be really small but are babys are healthy & plus that means we aren't going to be so big after so they can kiss are ***** & to make it better my baby weights perfect & weights just some ounces more so don't worry about having a palm or whatever as long as your feeding yourself well & everything goes great.

Don't worry about it. I'm the same way I'm 33 weeks 5'8 and I was 137 when I got pregnant lost 10lbs cause I was sick at 12 weeks. Now I'm 148. My son measures a week ahead and we are both perfectly healthy. Don't let people get you down :) as long as you are healthy and baby is you are fine!

I'm 8 months pregnant, but look I'd say 12 weeks if that. I seem to be carrying in my back rather then out front. No one believes me when I say I'm due in 5 weeks

This is dumb.  It's alright to tell a woman she is essentially fat while pregnant but mom's who are small and don't show get criticized for being small. Hunny,  everyone carries different and as long as you and the baby are healthy, don't care what others say. Look up my 8 pound pregnancy in this month's fit pregnancy p 36.  It might make you feel better.
