Man I know Exactly how you ladies feel. When I was younger I was always a lil bigger than my gfs and I was always the "fat friend" then as I got older I lost the weight & ended up looking better than my friends. Long story short now that I'm prego for the first time I'm getting Huge & its bringing back bad memories. I know I'm prego & its expected but seriously when does the weight gaining end?? I feel huge. And I don't get it cause I've had morning sickness thruout my whole pregnancy & don't eat a bunch of junk. All I know is as soon as this lil girl comes I am doing whatever I can to lose the weight. Nice to know I'm not alone :)

[codibear]

Oh im very happy to be prego. Im just hate the pounds.  I know, i feel so gross. That after baby, im going to work like crazy to lose it...

i can totally relate! with my last preg i was already bigger before getting preg but i had such a cute tummy at the start, at 5 months i have a picture of me dressed up to go out and my belly was perfectly round and just cute! then i got bigger and bigger, i bought some mat clothes that were way to big and never thought i could fit them, well OMG i just about had to go buy more! i was sure i couldnt/wouldnt get much bigger! i work in LTC and old ppl can be mean and the one old lady kept asking if i was sure i wasnt having twins! so anyway i was huge, then i swelled up with edema so bad i had it on my tummy!! it was crazy and after i had my daughter via c section i was left with this gross tummy that was fat and kinda hanging... i hate it and now with this pregnancy i am showing the same as last time where my tummy pokes out higher up first, but i still have this yucky tummy under and i dont look cute at all! i hope that when i get farther along i wont look so much fat but cute again....maybe not so big as last time tho! and i remember last time|(in the waitng room at Dr) thinking wow these woman are very preg and i dont look preg at all! not this round i was think OMG they probably think im very preg too! i hope after this babe i can get my butt in gear and get my confidence back!

So dont think that you cant/wont get much bigger nicole8989....you still have possibly 10 more weeks left!!!

[kfrasher]

I can totally relate!! I'm already a chunkier girl and when I'm preggers its sooo much worse!!! My boobs are too big to look cute in maternity shirts because the shirts don't have enough room for them to fit right!! And when I turn and look in mirror I often wonder if the baby is really in my belly or  has moved to my butt!!! . They are both big n round!!! Lol..ha* cute, skinny pregnant girls just make me feel more like a whale!! Lol..;-) btw I'm only 15 wks and got out my maternity clothes last week and over half if my tops already don't fit!!! Ahhh..

[nicole8989]

Im just the type of person that dont care what people thing of me.   I show off my baby bump with cute maternity cloths.   Plus im 32 weeks so im probably not going to get too much larger.  

[jdreyn]

I feel the exact same way. I was a size 4 when I got pregnant, and now I can't even put my jeans on, and I'm only 21w5d. I feel so fat, but I know it's my baby boy growing, but still. My husband and everyone says "you're pregnant" I know that, I just want to be skinny again!

[RippedonScotch]

I was at the Dr's office with a girl that was due the exact same day as me and one that was due 3 weeks later and it was depressing!   The one due the same day has a little bit of a baby belly starting but the other one at 5 months along had nothing!   I have only gained 6lbs to date now and I swear it has all just moved from other areas to my belly. (Dr isn't worried said Baby is gaining even measuring a week early and I'm losing.) I don't even think the one that was 7 1/2 months pregnant was bigger then me.  There is a girl I work with, she is due in a little over a month from now and I swear I look farther along then she does.  I guess we all just grow at different rates.

[parkersmommy]

I am 20 weeks Saturday and I look about 7 months pregnant I'm talking huge round belly already can't wear regular clothes I have also gone up about 5 pants sizes and gained a total of 20 lbs. All women are different and I always get HUGE try not to let it discourage you I know it's hard not to feel gross but at least baby is growing like he/she should and not to little right?

[alaskalady]

I know how you feel I'm almost 27to weeks now and I only just started to really look pregnant. Up until now I just looked fat. As happy as I am about the baby I have days where I look at myself and all I can think is how tired I am of being pregnant...

[codibear]

I know right, when ppl start giving me that look. Im like this baby better b a girl.. lol and they leave it alone. My mom says im silly cause i tell everyone im pregnant. Well i just feel so fat. I lost 70 pounds. And got pregnant. I swear...  Im a really high risk though. Im just tired of feeling like a whale, and wish this baby could grow faster..

[kelsebby92]

Agreed, EVERYONE tells me that but our baby is still so small haha I just wish it was more noticable I'm pregnant, I Truely just look like I put on a lot of weight! So only a select few know I'm pregnant the others can hay think I'm fat! D:

[Ashleigh529]

I feel you guys!!! Pregnancy weight is so crazzzzzy! I feel so huge and im so tired of hearing "your not fat you're pregnant " from everyone.  I know im pregnant but now im fat too. Lol. I've gone from a size 3-5 to a 9 in 21 wks. Its pretty depressing

[kelsebby92]

I'm 21 weeks and feel huge, like a whale, I can feel myself being jealous of the skinny girls walking around, its horrible, and I feel like I need to loose so much weight but there a baby in there n I can't do that I feel bigger every single day! And I just want it to slow down alil I mean the baby can keep growing!! Just let my weight stop for alittle. Lol
