Rate of belly growth
The last couple of weeks I felt like my belly was growng by the day and the last few days I feel like it stopped. Is this cause for concern or will it happen in spurts? The 26th seems so far away. I just wish I could know everything is still okay.

Re: Rate of belly growth
I never monitored my belly growth. You're probably just being overly cautious. As long as you are feeling fine I'm sure there's no need to worry.

Re: Rate of belly growth
I have DEFINITELY been getting bigger the past couple of weeks but some days I feel that I look bigger because I am more bloated...
they say that once youre in the 2nd trimester the bloating goes away...so maybe thats what happened to you....

Re: Rate of belly growth
Dont worry, some days I feel like I look huge, and other days I feel like I am not showing at all. At 28 weeks, most people dont notice I am pregnant

Re: Rate of belly growth
The past few weekends, I have definitely progressed. I can go two weeks with no change and then BAM! overnight I got bigger. This weekend was definitely a growth weekend. I walked into work this morning and my work wife told me that I have definitely GROWN out in the past few days. It is a good thing I love her or else I might have swatted her.

Re: Rate of belly growth

Sorta freaked me out a bit but hey.. its only the beginning (oh joy)

I wouldn't worry! The first trimester belly growth is often bloating and gas. The baby is so small and so is your uteris that you can't really see those changes on a daily basis. I didn't gain anything in my first 13 weeks and wasn't showing at all. If you are at 14, you may be showing but will probably grow more in spurts this early on.
