So I feel like I've doubled in size in the last couple of weeks. I have always measured just on track or small, and am still measuring on track, but I just feel (and look, in pictures) SOOO much bigger than I did at, say, 30 weeks. I'm scared about how much bigger I will get!!
Did you feel like you got massively huge in the last 6 weeks, or did your growth slow down a bit? Am I doomed to become a monster?

You won't believe how much bigger you can get! I make big babies, so I got huge but those last few weeks get pretty big anyways!
-
I have gotten bigger both times between 34 and 37 weeks, and then just sort of stay the same from then until the end.
-
I was cute pregnant at 34 weeks. By 36 weeks I was a whale. No joke. It's crazy how big you can get right in those last few weeks. It doesn't happen to everyone, but it was scary!
-
I'm shocked when I look at pictures of around 34 weeks vs the day before she was born. Shocked, I tell you. I never got huge, but it's still amazing to see the difference.
-
Not much, here. I looked bigger at 31 weeks than at the end, but I think that's because she dropped soooo low.
-
Here's my comparison at 32 and 39 weeks. Looking at the picture, I don't look that much bigger but my bump is weirdly higher, and definitely more pronounced at 39. After 37 weeks I felt super uncomfortable and before that I felt great.
-
34 weeks started the period of exponential growth. It didn't stop.
-
32wks vs. 40wks.
I got huuuuuuuuuge!
-
A whole lot bigger.
-
Much much bigger! I look at pictures from the day he was born and wonder how I could walk and not tip over from such a massive belly.
-
Much bigger. It was cute & manageable at 34w. At 40w, I stopped leaving the house except to doctor's visits.
-
Oh 32-34 I was still cute pregnant, 36+ I got huge, started to retain water, and looked like a whale! ha
-
35/39. I went into labor a few days after the second photo was taken.

@lovehoneybee: I hope this isn't rude but your 39 week pic is the first one I've ever seen on the bee where I audibly said "oh my god…". You're just such a small person and your bell was so…. horizontal? Bodies are amazing man! Lol I'm so glad your LO didn't go late!
-
@BananaPancakes: haha me too. Cute preggo and then BAM! Beached whale. (And I didn't even make it to 36 weeks, so... Maybe I was just a beached seal at that point... I would have made it to whale status though, I'm sure.)
-
@Mae: Haha no not rude at all! I remember posting a bump picture from a week or two before that last one and someone here...I can't remember who...told me it looked like a sidecar, lol! And I'm glad he didn't go late too...it was early August and I was hot and in a lot of pain and pretty much just miserable.
-
I feel like I got so much bigger! I was honestly shocked and amazed by my body at the end.
Here's me at 33 weeks, and a few days before I went into labor at almost 39 weeks.
-
i feel like i got a lot bigger. but not sure measurement wise~
-
@.twist.: I know it was bad because I went from having the door constantly held open for me in public, or random men telling me how beautiful I was, to everyone avoiding eye contact at all. Like people were all "holy shit, there is literally a whale walking around in Target right now!" I'm pretty sure people were calling their friends.
