Would you say im normal size for 29 weeks ftm? Some people I work with said I was small.
Thanks so much! That made my day :) and I'm glad you can relate, taking this pic I felt huge then when I took it I was like hmph! I am small lol. But your right, so far (knock on wood) I haven't had many common complaints besides backache too and occasional sleeplessness and hope to bounce back once baby's here. I gained a bit over 20 lbs already and get winded easier but nothing intolerable. I think my height (5'8) helps conceal the extra weight.
I don't feel small either until I see myself in pictures. I get those comments about being small all the time- some people see 30+ weeks pregnant and just assume you are going to be huge and look like youre about to pop. Lol. I think you look cute. :) you'll get a little bigger too, you still have some time.
I tell a lott of girls that as long as your doctor says your baby is healthy- your good to go.
And being small has its perks.
I have had no swelling in my feet or hands. My back hurts on occasion but its not intolerable because my belly is small so theres not a ton of strain. AND, being smaller you may have a better chance of your body bouncing back after pregnancy without requiring lots of work.
^Thank you :) and thanks for the reassurance ladies! People said my baby seemed tiny too, and made me feel like i wasnt up to par, though I feel quite large lol..but not going to take their comments so seriously since everyone's different and im clearly not alone.Baby and me are also healthy so thats what counts. :)
