Hi i'm 25+2 weeks pregnant and people keep commenting on how small my bump is considering i'm 6 months pregnant, as some one i work with has just turned 27 weeks and is huge. it's starting to worry me, i'm a healthy eater and have plenty of exercise.
Am i being paranoid?

just to agree witeh veryone else. My DS was 6lb3 adn I had scans for teh last couple of months as my bump never seemed to get very big. Howvere he was absolutelyfine. I'm quite tall - 5.8 and like soemone else says, then they have more room to hide!!

I think baby is lying into my back and that's why i'm not showing much and the reason i have really bad back ache!!
i see the MW tomorrow so i think i'll bring it up with her.
Thanx for everyones input.

Just remember that everyone is an expert when it comes to pregnancy...

Smile sweetly at all the comments- a friend of mine hardly showed at all even at the end and she had a healthy baby
