FTM. Relatively small tummy at week 19 and anxious about next appt

I know different people may have different growth pace but it goes get stressful when people around comment that “you don’t look pregnant” “your tummy look small must eat more” cos my tummy is not as obvious as the other preg mothers. Comments like this make me worry in between my appts.. my last appt was at week 16 and the next will be in another weeks time. Doesn’t help when there’s so many information out there about stillborn etc which can’t be detected until scan Anybody encountered similar and how do you deal with it?

Pls dont worry mummy! Some barely even have bumps till the day they give birth. Some mummies suddenly the bump pop out within a day. As long as baby is healthy, everything is fine. Trust me, youll want smaller bump!! Cause lesser weight and not much stretch mark. I know the constant worry of a ftm, as we’re unsure about everything. My baby still born healthy as ever. So bump size doesnt matter!
