Over Weight FTM !!

Hi I Am Currently 13 Weeks And 5 Days Pregnant With My First Baby . I'm Only 19 So Naturally Every Little Thing Scares Me Lol . Well I'm Overweight , According To Society I'm " Obese " (,5'3"  271 Lbs . ) Well When I Lay Down I Can Feel A Little Small Baby Bump , But Only On The Left Side . Could This Be Because That's Where My Baby Is More Comfy ? I Have Ultrasounds And Everything Looks Good . ( Too My Knowledge ) But Is This Normal Because The Pregnancy Is So Early ? OrnShould I Worry ?

I am also 19 and on the heavy side (size 14) being that your only 13 weeks the baby is still only very small it's unlikely there is any thing to worry about try to eat healthy and excessive daily to give your baby the best start and it will really help in labour if your fit and have a good stamina as it's quite a work out I've been told haha my recommended weight gain for the whole pregnancy was 9kgs approximately 20 lbs I'm now 41 weeks and 1 day and I've gained 4kgs so your recommended weight gain would be around the same mabey less :) good Luck!!

It wouldn't be baby as bub is still so small, but it may be your uterus. If you are concerned just check with your dr.
