Hey, I'm 5'7 and never weighed more than 110lbs. I was a very large baby at 9lbs 4 oz. My baby's father was right at 8 lbs but he is 6'1 and 180lbs. My question is since I'm skinny is it normal for me to be able to feel more growth of my baby? My obgyn told me that I'm 15.5 weeks along, but there's no way and by the looks of my baby I'm only about 10- 10.5 weeks pregnant. I can feel my uterus all swollen up, it feels about the size of a average sized orange, I read that at so many weeks it should be located about 2 inches under your belly button, but if everyone carries their babies at different heights how could this be accurate
