Bump question

For the past few days it seems like my bump has gone down a little. It gets larger at night after eating dinner, which is just weird to me. People at work even say I look "less" pregnant. Is it because it's still early and I'll start showing more in the next few weeks? I got kinda worried about it but I should know tomorrow at the 20 week u/s

Does clothing effect how your bump looks? Maybe that's my problem

A lot of the fluctuation has to do with the fact that you're starting to retain water and as the womb pushing all your insides around it's normal to expect your tummy to change shapes and sizes. I've had people ask me if I've lost weight this week, umm, nope still climbing the scales.

I feel the exact same way. I'm 19 weeks and some days I'm bigger than other days. Like today, I don't even feel pregnant. It's just strange!

Thanks! That makes me feel a lot better

Yup, I have the exact same thing. My belly always looks huge right after dinner, but the next morning, it's back down again. It's bizarre.

At least we can feel thin again for a few weeks before we balloon up lol

Same thing happens to me, at night my stomach balloons, then in the morning it's back to normal. I've definitely noticed some weeks it looks more defined than others, and yes, I do think some shirts make you look bigger, too. I have some with the rouching on the sides that seem to make me look way more pregnant than ones without it, not really sure why.
