    Babies and women come in different shapes and sizes. Unless your doctor or midwife were concerned that baby may be unusually small for how far along you are, it is often just a matter of how your body is carrying baby.

    Some women carry very low, some high, some all out in front, some spread the weight around, some get quite large, some stay fairly small. On occasion you will even have some women who give birth who never even realized that they were pregnant.

    Regardless of the size of the mother's belly, most babies will still fall within the average range for length and weight.

    Some people have lots of fluid so that makes them look bigger as well I looked like I was having twins but I only had a 6pounder.. and yea it all depends on you your baby is laying
