    With my daughter I was pretty tiny up until I was like 36 weeks. With my son I got huge! I would waddle when I walked since like 27 weeks! Lol. It was all baby though! 9 lbs 9 oz at birth.

    When the midwife measures your belly they don't measure around.

    They measure from the top of the baby's head/or bum down to your pubic bone.

    I thought this and panicked for ages lol. :)

    It's different with everyone, but I was really really big in my last trimester. I can't remember how big, but it looked like i ate a basketball lol no kidding. I had a boy so that's probably why. They say that if you carry high and in front you'll have a boy and if you carry low and in your hips it's a girl. It's mostly true.
