Does anyone have any reassuring big bump pics at 20 odd weeks?

Im 21 weeks today and im getting really worried about how big i am. This is my third baby and my 2nd weighed 9lbs at birth and hurt like hell when she was coming down, even before she came out!!! I am so worried that this one is going to be even bigger (also a girl). My friend came to visit me yesterday and she said i look massive for 21 weeks I feel so crap about it all, i know im pregnant and i shouldnt let it get me down but im starting to feel like a freak. Ive put more than 2 stone one, well last time i looked so it may even be upto 3 now and i eat better now than i did before i got pregnant, as in healthier and less!! It just comes from nowhere. Just wondering if anyone else is or has looked so big at this stage. xx

awww don't be glum! I am pregnant with my 3rd and already look huge...I have my first scan later today...if all is well I'll post a pic and make you feel tonnes better even if you're further along than me!lol.

I think it definately makes a difference if your body has done it all before...the tummy muscles part quicker and you look bigger than previous pregnancies.

I'm feeling pretty huge already. I'm 23+3 today and people have commented in person about how big my bump is and am I sure there's only one in there and this is my first pregncy! The photos I have don't really show it off as well as seeing me in the flesh but I'll happily show you them.To give you some idea of scale, I was already a size 18/20 with pretty huge boobs before I got PG!

My bump so far

Pinkluvlylady - i would love to see some piccies of your bump if you wouldnt mind, and thank you xx

Nichola - I was a 14 before pregnant but now i need size 16 maternity clothes and my boobs are a 36gg I think my bump may be a bit bigger than yours too and youre a bit further than me! Ho hum! Thanks for showing me your piccies xx

My boobs are a 38GG at the moment, they were a 38F before I got PG. Remember like I said, this is my first, I'd imagine I'd be bigger if it was 2nd or 3rd. Ultimately as long as everything is ok with bubba then there's no need to worry. That's what I keep telling myself anyway!

Aww Supernatural, your friend is naughty saying things like that! Honestly, some people really don't engage brain before opening mouth. Yesterday my Grandad said that if I was this big now, goodness knows what I'd be like in July In my defence baby was having an outie day, normally it's hiding in my pelvis! 

I have suddenly sprouted a proper bump, and have the breathlessness/looking like a teletubby feelings to go with it. This is #3 remember, your body is a bit of an expert with the pregnancy thing...

I'll put my bump pic on later to reassure you!

My growth is documented here http://www.flickr.com/photos/46139354@N08/sets/72157623310092625/

I feel huge already too, don't worry about it, embrace it I am!

(Will upload yesterday's 20+1 pic in a bit x)

Please try not to worry (easier said then done sometimes i know ) when you are pregnant again you carry differently anyway and alot of the weight is fluid anyway!

Have a chat at your next scan they should be able to tell you the weight of the baby

Ignore your friend.  I have had the are there two in there comments from early on and it is annoying - I don't comment on non-pregnant peoples stomach size!

Actually I wish my bump was bigger - it seemed to grow quickly and now seems to have slowed right down (the size also depends on what I am wearing). 

I am sure it is only seems bigger because it is your third pregnancy and therefore entirely normal.

Everyone carries differently and also people make random comments for something to say!

Here are my 20 and 21 week ones

This is at 24weeks!

Thank you so much  for the pictures, i feel so much better now. Pip, i think mine looks about the same as yours xxx

Don't have an up to date pic, will have to take one tonight, but everyone at work keeps commenting on how much bigger I am this time compared to when I was pg with J. With him, I wasn't really showing until after the summer holidays, when I was at least 28 weeks, but this time, I was asked when I was due a couple of times by about 16 weeks. I just hope the growth slows up or I'll be the size of a hippo by July!

Me at 23+2 a couple of weeks ago. As you can see, I'm huge:
