I'm also told a lot that I'm big for how far along I am but every woman grows differently, my midwife says I'm growing normally and that's what matters. I was also just told that I'm measuring two weeks ahead of what I initally was told, although every baby also grows differently.

I also think that a lot of people don't know what a 9 month pregnant woman looks like and think that no matter what you look like you look big.

People have no idea what they're talking about when they say "You look so big/small for being that far along."  Even other pregnant woman can't judge how far along you are because women carry so differently.

When I was pregnant with DS 1, I didn't 'pop' until 25/26 weeks so you couldn't even tell. With DS 2, I looked 9 months pregnant at 7 months because I gained a ton of weight. So, there are a lot of factors to take into account. Each woman is different. And maybe you're carrying baby more toward the front than back...? If that makes sense?

i feel bigger this time and my knees feel it too...i have def. poped out and yes i think baby is more at front i can fill LO alot... it could be the looseness there from my previous Csection letting all the bump pop less muscles to hold it in maybe idk...but my poor butt i got a large maternity jeans last weekend and now they litterally are falling off  i was XL b4 i started now i think i could get in med. sizes except my big basketball lol

im gonna look like octomom belly by time i get done haha
