    Your bump.

    All three pregnancies I have had 3 dirrerent bumps.

    DD1 was very high, my breasts rested nicely on my bump and you could tell when bubs had dropped from the gap that was created from my belly to breasts. This was hell on my ribs though with DD practising her rib spreading skills and the reflux was hell.

    DD2 Very low the whole way through, never got reflux never felt her around my ribs but made wearing most clothes uncomfy except dresses.

    The Stowaway has been smack bang in the middle and a beautiful round shape, very compact and firm. My favourite bump of all. I have mild reflux (chololate the main culprit )but that is about all.

    Did you have different bumps or the same and what did/do you prefer?

    hi!!! As you know I am up to baby number four. And each bump has been unique, as different as each baby has been, even though thus far they have all been the same gender!!

    This current baby switches between high and low. On the high days I have to put my hands above my head at times to help me breathe. On the low days I waddle and can't stop needing to pee. They both have their pros and cons! But I think I prefer the high out of the two.

    Can't wait to hear what your little one is!!!

    Mine have all been different - I carried DS lowish, DD1 was a big higher and more like that basketball look and DD2 was a bit lower than DS1 and DS2 was even lower again. And I have stretchmarks in different places to prove it

    Mine were pretty much the same, out in front, both carried pretty low. but as I cooked DD for 3.5w longer than DS her bump got very low. I felt like it was scraping on the ground a few days before birth

    Your bump.

    Ok so I've only had one pregnancy that resulted in babies but carried REALLY high and OMG, the rib pain. I hear you on that, I did actually wonder on several occasions if G had managed to crack one or two of my ribs because I was in so much pain.

    Your bump.

    I carried high and it was a compact little bump
    Barely any rib pain and no reflux too busy vomiting everything out of me!

    Re: Your bump.

    With DS I carried really low, never had heartburn or s kick in the ribs but did have a continence issue from 20week he was so low (even with my pelvic floor of steel).
