I'm 6 months Pregnant, some days my belly is big, some days it is small, is this normal?

Answer 1

Yes it is normal. You know I got scared couple times when I was pregnant with my daughter, because some days my belly felt like it shrunk. I had concerns about her weight and stuff. It was paranoia :). Being pregnant I worried too much. It was just how she was positioning in my tummy. I am pretty sure it is the same with you.

Just watch your weight gain. As long as your gaining approximately 1 lbs per week (since you are in your third trimester), you and your baby will be fine.

GOOD LUCK!!!

Answer 2

Sometimes, if you have strong stomach muscles, this will prevent you from showing as soon as some other pregnant ladies will. Your baby is probably filling up gradually to take all the room in your uterus and once this is done your belly will start to show as there becomes less room in there! Your belly might harden around month 5 when you might feel a hardness just below your belly button which will keep moving up as your pregnancy progresses. Good luck with it!

Answer 3

Yes it is normal. The baby is changing positions and moving around. At times he or she will be in a little ball, which makes your belly seem very big. At other times he or she will stretch out a bit or wrap around you and snuggle, and then your belly will appear to be smaller as it will not bulge out. No worries!

Answer 4

Yes it is probably just the baby moving about into different positions giving your tummy the appearance of size changes. Get the book what to( Expect When Your Expecting) it will be a great resource for you in the months ahead.

Answer 5

Yes, it just depends on the position of the baby. When my baby started to turn (head down), I looked like I swallowed a football for about 12 hours - honestly! Feet sticking out one side, head on the other. It was uncomfortable but it looked funny!

When your baby starts kicking more, take some time to enjoy the "show". I used to raise my shirt and watch her little feet run across my belly (she ran like crazy if I sat too long). It was great - my ex said it reminded him of the movie Alien - a bulge here and then suddenly a bulge there. (He liked it too, just had a weird way of expressing what it looked like.) Enjoy it - you only get this point of view a limited number of times!

Answer 6

yes. as the baby grows, your pelvic area is stretching and allowing more room for the baby to move around. Depending on the baby's position, your belly can appear larger or smaller.

Answer 7

Yeah it usually depends on ur posture and the way ur walking. If u have good posture u won't look sloppy and waddle like a duck. But its normal a lot of things are just not pain and bleeding.

Answer 8

Hey Brooks Mom... Yeah, It's normal. I'm a Granny and been there, done that. Wait 'til you get a teeny foot or elbow running across your tummy......You wont worry about the size of your tummy. You will be thrilled about what's going on...DON'T worry just enjoy what's going on......Good Luck!

Answer 9

my daughter is 4 months old and i remember my stomach doing the same thing....
but always bring concerns like that up to your ob/gyn.....
but anyway....
it could be retained water, swelling from sitting or being on your feet or yes, even the baby moving......
or even your diet...like what you have eat for the day....
just keep track of what you eat and what your belly looks like afterwards and let your dr. know!!!!!!!
good luck!!!

Answer 10

Oh yea it is normal your baby still has a lot of room to move around but it wont stay that way much longer because he 's getting bigger (lol) :)
