Anyone else got a B shaped bump?

[SunflowerOwl]

I know there are worse problems to have and im lucky to be pregnant but I'm 25 weeks today and hoped I'd have a lovely round bump by now like other ladies seem to. However it's taken on a sort of 'b' shape.

I know its silly but it's making me really self conscious about what I wear as I still just look a bit chubby!

I wasnt overweight or pregnancy but google seems to suggest it's a plus size thing.

Have any other mums to be got or had this? Please can someone tell me it will round out soon so I can feel lovely and pregnant .

Try not to worry - everyones bump shapes and sizes are different. It's so hard not to compare to other people but as long as your baby is healthy and growing well, try not to worry about what your bump looks like.

I had my 28 week appointment last week and the midwife mentioned that I have a small dip in my bump. Apparently if there is a dip, it can be a sign that the baby is back-to-back. Could it be that yours is facing this way?

For ages I was transverse and had a really pointy bump when he stuck his bottom out!

I had a b shaped bump to start with but now 30 weeks and I’ve completely rounded off :)

I posted about the same thing a few weeks ago! I'm just under 20 weeks and have a very obvious 'B' shape but with the top half being bigger! I thought something might be wrong but apparently it is very normal so I've learnt to embrace it now!

I don't even get a B shaped bump, my front from under my bra to the zip of my jeans just gets thicker. I only get what's identifiable as a pregnant bump around 32 weeks, and it's still oddly high up until the very end and not very round. Everyone is different!

Me too!
Very defined B shape. Top part bigger than bottom one- can't exactly figure it out! Hoping will develop a proper round bump soon, and honestly hoping it doesn't mean baby is back to back!

I had this but it rounded out and became more taut around 29ish weeks I think.

Yes, I’ve got a B shaped bump too, but I’m not pregnant 😬😃

I normally have a B shaped flabby belly (even when slimmer), 4 large pregnancies producing 5 babies will do that to you. By 24wk belly started to look more preggers than like I'd eaten all the pies lol. I carry high and my flab now droops below bump and maternity leggings offer no support for it, super annoying so I try to hide it.

Choice of clothing can help.

You’re not alone when you worry about your bump, I just look fat at the minute 22+1 everything I wear is just a little podgey.

Obviously it’s just strangers that don’t know so I just try and forget about it.

As you get bigger it’ll probably turn into a massive pregnant belly like you hoped

Lovely bump Chelyanne! No B shape- when did it go?

I’m a size 20 usually and this was my concern, but I’m 37 weeks now and have a definite, obvious bump. Xx

With my last I had a pointy bump, because my stomach muscles had separated, I would have welcomed a b shaped bump!

This is my 2nd pregnancy and I startes of with a B shaped bump this time round. Im small usually a size 8 so it defo isnt a strictly plus size thing. I really hated it too, i never had one first time roune, i hadnt even known it was a thing before I googled it. Id say it was round about 26 to 28 weeks tho it rounded out.

Thank you all for replying Lovely bumps @ER20 and @Chelyanne I'm very jealous.

I'm not sure about back to back but they did say at my 20 week scan that I had an anterior placenta so maybe that's got something to do with it.

Hopefully in the next couple of weeks it will round out then

Yes I had one and I'd say it rounded out at around 28 weeks but is still pretty flat around my belly button which is where it's always dipped in before.

For reference this is 21 weeks with the B shape, then 27 weeks then 32 weeks where it's a lot rounder

Yeh I have a B !!

I wear some maternity support knickers. And I go from B to D. I'm size 22 and had a big belly previous to being pregnant. (20weeks)
