PLEASE HELP, I'M 20 WEEKS PREGNANT WITH TWIN BOYS.
MY STOMACH AT FIRST WAS HUGE EVERYONE THOUGHT I WAS 9 MONTHS AND I WAS ONLY 3- 4 MONTHS. NOW I'M 5 MONTHS MY STOMACH IS MUCH SMALLER AND BARELY NOTICEABLE. I ASKED MY DOCTOR AND HE DOESN'T KNOW EITHER. ANOTHER THING: THE TOP OF MY STOMACH IS VERY HARD AND THE BOTTOM IS SOFT AND IT'S VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. PLEASE HELP IF POSSIBLE. THANKS, ANGIELA
It could be that you are carrying extra water weight or feeling more bloated on some days. my husband just asked why my stomach looks smaller today - I am almost 5 months now. I have no idea, but babies shift and some days I eat more than other days; but I'm pretty sure this is completely normal. :-)

Hello there,

As poster above me has already said there are various reasons which can make that your stomach looks smaller on some days. First of all you are not eating the same amount of the food every day and you don’t drink the same amount of the fluids and this can affect the visual impression. Also if you are checking your stomach in the morning on the empty stomach you are most likely to see that is smaller than in the evening when you are eating.

Also I believe that this is nothing serious otherwise your doctor would be concerned as well. So try to relax and do the things that make you happy because stress is not good for your babies.
