I know I'm probably being very silly here so just need a kick up the bum. I'm 18 1/2 weeks pregnant and I don't really look very pregnant at all. There are 3 of us at work due around the same time and the other two have lovely bumps now. I just look a bit like I've over eaten at dinner time! It didn't bother me too much (the midwife at 16 week appointment found the heartbeat and said baby is growing fine) but I'm getting sick of everybody saying things like "you don't look pregnant", "you're looking very slim today" and "the other two are much bigger than you" etc. It's just made me a little bit paranoid that I should be a bit bigger by now.
Can anybody reassure me by telling me that they just looked a bit bloated at this stage? When I'm undressed I can completely tell the difference, but other people seem shocked at how small I am :(
