Anyone else with a big squishy bump?!

BabyBee15

I'm 29+3 and have (according to what every man and his dog likes to tell me) a huge bump. But - the majority of the time it is still so squishy! I had great abs before baby and haven't put much weight on anywhere else so I don't think it's just fat. But I t's not what I expect a bump to be like at all - so has anyone else had the same?!

Your bump is all full of water (amniotic fluid).

Once you're like, 39w and it's all baby, it may feel firmer, but for now, you're basically a water bed.

How your bump is now, will have little bearing on how well/quickly you "bounce back" after birth.

Mine is rock hard, but that's because I've been having horrible contractions all the damn time. Squishy is the normal bump state is my understanding...

One side of my belly is harder than the other, presumably being the side where baby is hanging out.

Mine has been hardish with both pregnancies, but is squishier underneath this time and last time it wasn't. Could just be where baby is laying.

Sometimes part of my belly is hard and part is super squishy so I realized it's just baby being in different positions. Currently 35 weeks though.
