My concern is my baby bump is really small.
We had a anamoly scan 2 weeks..both babies are Normal in weight..one is 386 gms and 356gms. I started feeling kicks and movements as well.
Am worried because bump is very small..
Wen do we actually see the bump growing.
And how to increase weight in pregnancy.
Am unable to eat more due to indigestion and heartburn issues.

Bump can show from 22-24 weeks. Do not worry about that If scan is normal. Also, in 1st trimester, usually 1-2 kg weight gain is advisable. Soo your weight gain is adequate. Do not worry about it.

If as per the ultrasound the growth of the babies is normal you don't have to look at the baby bump
Have smaller meals and concentrate more on a protein rich diet
