Is Anyone Else Getting Smaller ? Posted: 05-27-07 20:56pm
so im 33 weeks and in the past week my
stomach has gotten noticably smaller.. I
still feel her move just as much as usual
but i measured and im a full 2 inches
smaller.. Could it be because im losing
some fluids? I have an appointment on
wednesday and ill ask her then but its
weird.. I dont look 8 months pregnant
anymore.. the dh is worried as heck right
now.

That is really strange. You also said you
lost about four or five pounds lately. Did
you find that out at the doctor's office?
I would be a nervous wreck waiting until
Wednesday to find out what is going on.

I felt the same way the past few days. I
would look in the mirror and not look as
big as I did but my baby is stick kicking
and moving around more than ever. It might
be the way the baby is positioned I have
no clue.

I was starting to think the same with me,
but I think it has more to do with the
baby's possitioning these days. I know
that I am slowly starting to drop. I have
also lost 22.5 lbs since I got pregnant.
Yay me. They think I more than likely lost
about 40. but gained back around 20. SO
long as I am fine and the baby is fine,
there are no issues with the weight loss.
I go for another ultrasound next week so
we will see how things are going in there.
I wouldn't worry too much as our body's
have been changing so much and if baby is
starting to drop and engage that would
mean that our bellys shape and size would
change somewhat as well. If you are really
concerned, just make sure that you mention
it to your doctor when you see him/her
again.
Take care.

33.3 wks.. yay

Yeah doesn't your tummy get smaller when
the head is engaged? Your baby's head is
probably making the trip down into your
pelvis now. My doc said my baby's head is
down there, which is why I'm getting the
nerve pains in my groin when I stand up.
I haven't noticed my tummy getting smaller
but it is nice and round now where it was
a bit more watermelon like before.
