Big belly, little belly?

I guess it depends on how much I eat in a day, but somedays I look pregnant, while others I just look a little bloated.  It makes me worried that I'm not eating enough or that he isn't growing enough.  I go to bed with a big belly and wake up to a small one.  It is probably my body digesting, but it makes me mad!  Anyone else?

Re: Big belly, little belly?

  • Yes, me too. It's small in the morning and get bigger throughout the day.

  • My belly was always smaller in the morning up until the day I delivered DD. I can't tell you why. But also keep in mind that the baby has a lot of room in there right now and could just be in a different position when you're laying down. Either way, I wouldn't worry about your diet or the baby's growth unless your Dr says so.

    I'm the complete opposite, haha. More bump-like in the morning, more bloat/chub-like by the end of the day.

    This is me too. I think it's because my bump is low and my stomach is above it. In the morning, the bump looks round and low, whereas in the afternoon when my stomach is full, my front side just looks bigger all over.

  • Thanks everyone!  It puts my mind at ease that I'm not the only one!  :)
  • For me I think it's a combination of two things. Food and tired abs. By the end of the day my abs are tired of "holding them in" that I kinda just let everything hang out. I know that makes me look 100x more pg than I really am...

  • In the morning I look fat. Since I had two c sections I have a major pooch. At night I look real rounded. But I have to say I can't suck it in anymore and when I lay down I have a major hump!!
