Freaked and Confused over feeling bub move!

[Cynthaz]

My bub is always way more active if I have anything sugary. Do you eat a lot of chocolate?

Try to think of it as reassurring. At least you know bub's OK in there :-)

I had movements since week 17 and now at 20 weeks I can get baby to move and kick whenever I lie down.

I'm small too and have had lots of comments about my lack of bump - including getting a nickname of "fattie" from a few work male and female work colleagues who obviously think that's ok to say. Luckily I've got at thick skin.

I've gone from 50kgs pre-pregnancy to 54 kilograms at 20 weeks. I'm assuming this is ok - I wasn't weighed at any of my antenatal appointments so assume it is!

I've been told that if you are small you will feel the baby earlier - a lot of people said I was wrong at 17 weeks and that it was wishful thinking - but I knew what I felt and could see. It does feel strange at first, but now I look forward to what I see as the baby's only way of saying "hello" to us at the moment. ;-)
