I am 26 weeks pregnant. I am quite a petite person and I consider my bump to be adequate. However, many people have commented that I am so small etc..and am i sure that all is ok with the baby. All is ok with the baby (as of last week), u/s at 20 weeks was good and fundal height is spot on. Am I normal?? I am carrying at the front and nowhere else so could this make me look small?

Also, I have a home doppler and every time I use it (only occasionally now, but before bedtime hubby likes to), the babys heart rate is always around 140 BPM (and was at appointment).

This is concerning me as it is always that rate even when the baby is active. Should I be concerned?

Thanks for everything
