18 weeks pregnant with twins, bump not that big

That's it really, shld I be worried? I was HUGE with my first two DCs, laughably so, and both 10lb'ers. Bump this time is reasonably round but I expected more at this stage, especially as I hear people say they are hugs at this stage, and also not really feeling much movement either (although the occasional flutter). Again, as there are 2 of them in there, two 8 inch babies, I expected more movement.

Scan was fine at 12 weeks, and a heartbeat detected at 16 weeks check up with consultant, have to wait another 2 weeks to 20 week scan.

Shld I sit tight and chill? If I call midwide, I expect she will advise me to wait for 20 week scan, as no other dodgy symptoms, and doppler wld not verify 2 babies in there anyway.

Advice/reassurance please! X
