Belly growth

So I literally work up this morning exactly 24 weeks today yahoo! but I feel like my belly grow massively overnight...

Anyone else have that? I'm all of a sudden more uncomfortable compared to yesterday. I know baby is growing someone mentioned a growth spurt around this time for baby. Either way, I feel ginormous!

Now I'm just waiting for big baby kicks! Stupid anterior placenta!

Re: Belly growth

  • Yes! My belly is different sized depending on where my little one is. Sometimes he's super close to the front of my belly making it huge and hard and other times he tucks further back and its smaller and softer. Today, I feel smaller. Yesterday, I looked huge! My favorite is when he picks one side and my belly is lopsided. Sorry you can't feel him or her yet! Mine thinks he's the next karate kid.

  • I experienced a very definite overnight growth spurt at 29 weeks with DD. Literally went from barely showing to a definite bump.

  • I'm at 24wks today too! I had that feeling actually at 21wks. But it happens every now and then too. Some days the bump feels tight and uncomfortable and other days not so much. I've started putting cocoa butter on my tummy those uncomfortable days. It helps!

    Same thing happened to me at 24 weeks! Finally. I was sick of just looking fat. We are almost there ladies!

    I have had terrible pelvic pain this week and went to the doctor. I am 25 weeks but measured 31 last week with the twins. This week I measured 34 weeks! No wonder my ligaments hurt.

  • I love the cocoa butter! Def helps with the tightness and itchy feeling!

    I know she is growing and I can feel her sporadically which is great but man this belly is getting big! So glad it's not just my mind playing tricks on me and that others have the same thing!

    My LO loves the left side I'm almost always lopsided.
