Shrinking bump?!

22 weeks today and yesterday I noticed my bump felt noticeably smaller. Today I've looked in the mirror and confirmed. Definitely smaller! Does this happen?! Why might it be?! DP thinks it's that I was fatter before and have lost some 'me' rather than bump weight, but really? Surely not in two days?!

Is bump shrinking sign of anything bad?!

Could be just baby changing position. Mine varied a lot every week or so.

Ooh, that's promising, thanks Smarties...

Yes im 21 weeks and on Wednesday my bump seemed to have disappeared but any movements i felt were very different than before, the day after my bump was back to normal i just think baby must have moved in a funny position.

I had this with DS at around your stage, it was a bit like he'd just popped out for a bit.
