B Belly

[BexusSugarush]

I am a size 10 in clothes (both pre-pregnancy and so-far during pregnancy) but have a B-shaped belly, rather than a rounded D-shaped one.

I am just wondering whether anyone else has experienced this in pregnancy and if I can look forward to rounding out? So far my belly is clearly bigger but the B-shape is just more obvious; it makes me very self-conscious about showing off the bump as it's a B-shaped bump :(

It turns out I have an anterior placenta also, so maybe there is some truth to the idea that this gives you a B-belly shape. However, at 19 weeks the belly is rounding out every day.. I have high hopes for that D-shape figure we all want.

I realise this thread was years ago but I've just come across it and it's made me feel so much better, I didn't even know what a B belly was and thought it was just me so thanks all! Just FYI I have an anterior placenta too haha

I’m the same I think 😞it’s my first pregnancy and I’m a uk size 4 and haven’t gained any weight apart from on my stomach since getting pregnant but started showing almost as soon as I was pregnant but it just looked like a low down bump at first but now it’s started to spread out like it’s a low and high bump with a dent in the middle I just want a nice normal round one 😞 id seen something online saying that it was caused by being overweight but I’m under weight so didn’t make sense but seeing this thread that clearly isn’t the cause anyway so who knows just hope it will get rounder eventually 😕
