Bump keeps fluctuating in size

I am currently 26 weeks with first baby and feel like for the last 6 weeks or so my bump seems to fluctuate.

Sometimes I look at it and think ‘WOW I’ve got so big’ and other times it seems really small and I worry the baby hasn’t grown.

Baby has been measuring ok so far on scans and I am feeling him daily.

I haven’t got any stretch marks yet but would say I look pregnant. I now have the line down my belly too.

Has anybody else found this?

Yep! At 26 weeks pregnant people would say i popped on some days and other days people wouldnt even realise im pregnant.

Its how baby lays inside, baby could be towards your back or baby could be all upfront.

When you get to 30+ weeks you'll realise that your bump just gets bigger by the week🤣 i didnt get my stretch marks until around 32 weeks, theyre now very deep and it feels like uk roads with pot holes and i never got the linea nigra line during pregnancy (I think thats what its called)

As you've had scans that show hes growing well and you're well, hopefully you're feeling movements as well. Enjoy your pregnancy x
