Huge baby bump!

[AuziNikol]

I'm only 17 weeks, 20 years old ftm and have a huge baby bump! I'm glad my baby is healthy and growing but depressed also. Before I was pregnant I was a pole dancer and I was very fit and in love with my abs. Pole dancing was also how I coped with my depression and anxiety issues so I didn't have to rely on medication. Since I've been pregnant I really haven't wanted the meds because they all have risks to the baby. I really have no clue how to deal with how big I am since before when I was unhappy with my body I would dance, but pole dancing is hazardous to the baby. Anyone else dealing with something like this?

Sometimes I wish I was having twins, I feel like that'd make me feel better about being big but then I'd also probably be bigger than I am. My mom said I'm a bit smaller than she was with me and both my sisters at this point so maybe there's a genetic factor or something thats making me bigger, plus I've only had one ultrasound so I may be measuring ahead which is another thing that happened with all of my moms pregnancies. Its just hard to deal with.

Hello I probably was nowhere near as fit as you but I still was conscious of the way I looked . Im am pregnant with twins so obviously have a big bump compared to that with Singleton im also a ftm and 20 years old and 22 weeks pregnant today. Im so paranoid about my weight and how my body will look after but I just keep telling myself it will all ve worth it when I see my two little boys . Also that nothing us stopping me to loose the baby weight after xx
