The Size of Your Pregnancy Bump Does Not Necessarily Mean Your Baby Is Too Large or Too Small or That Your Baby Is Not Healthy and Well. Baby Bumps Come in All...
The size of your pregnancy bump does not necessarily mean your baby is too large or too small or that your baby is not healthy and well. Baby bumps come in all different shapes and sizes. Remember that your midwife is there to listen to any concerns you have about pregnancy. There are no silly questions.
Does bump size indicate baby Size?
The fact is, there's no perfect size for your bump. And size is no indication of your baby's weight, either. “Mums-to-be are forever comparing bumps,' says midwife Lorna Bird. “But everyone's individual and just because someone has a big bump, it doesn't mean they'll necessarily have a big baby.
The size of your bump can be affected by all sorts of factors. The position of your baby in your womb (uterus) can make your bump look bigger. You may also have a bigger bump if you're carrying twins or more. If you're expecting your second or subsequent baby, you may also tend to have a larger bump.
