Don't worry, you have plenty of time. The ideal period is between 26 and 30 weeks because the baby's facial features are well-formed by then. Just relax and enjoy seeing your little one.
I used to stare at my belly every single day in the mirror, worrying why it wasn't growing! Honestly, my bump only started showing around the 20th week. Please don't stress, every body is different and your baby is growing perfectly.
As a mom, I know how scary this sounds. But sometimes dates are slightly different from when conception actually happened, so growth might seem slow. Definitely get a follow-up scan done by your doctor to be sure.
Just wait until the first day of your missed period to get an accurate result. Testing too early only leads to unnecessary stress and faint lines. Use the first morning urine for the home test.
I had to monitor my sugar four times a day and it was exhausting, but looking at my healthy baby today, every single sacrifice was worth it. You are doing amazing, mama, hang in there!
