Bump not growing?

[etaketak1991]

Hi everyone! I’m worried that my bump has been growing as much over the last 3 weeks than it has done for the rest of my pregnancy. I’m 30 weeks on Monday, and I’ve attached a comparison photo of when I was 27+2 (on the right). Measurements don’t seem to change, and today is the biggest I’ve felt for a few days this week. Baby has been regularly active so at least that’s something, but the lack of growth is worrying me. Is this normal? Sorry, FTM worries!!
Thanks

My bump looked smaller when I was 40 weeks. DD was born in January and there are pictures of me in November with a much bigger bump.

I really wouldn't worry about little growth over 3 weeks

My dd seemed to prefer squashing my insides to making my bump bigger for most weeks in the last trimester!

You have a lovely bump! Seems like a good size for 30 weeks too. Maybe the baby has changed positions?

When is your next midwife appointment? From 28 weeks you should be having serial bump measurements (if not having growth scans for any reason) to assess if the growth is normal. That will hopefully reassure you.

Thanks, everyone :)
I ended up going into maternity triage yesterday where they confirmed heart rate etc was fine, but measured me at 26.5cm which is a cm smaller than I was measured a week ago! (I know tape measuring isn’t an exact science...) They didn’t seem that worried, but I’ve just found in my notes that they’ve assumed I have a scan in 2 weeks, which I don’t.
Do you think it would be unreasonable to call my named midwife tomorrow to see if I can get a growth scan booked in?

Not at all, call them.

If you have a growth scan, please do take the results with a pinch of salt.
They are notoriously inaccurate.
I had 4, all predicted a 3-5lb tiny baby. I was told to go out and buy premature baby clothes.

DS came out 8lb2oz.
