Anyone stressing out?

Hi all, is anyone else stressing out about weight gain, cellulite and looking like a balloon? I'm due on the 19th and haven't gained much weight, but I'm feeling extremely bloated and ppl keep coming to me saying that I look fat.

Yes! I am 21 wks 5 days and 19 lbs up already. My bf took a pic of me in the bath joking around omg yuck! Its ok though because it gets me ready to bust my butt in the gym afterwards. Not worried about the weight i know that will come off but im definetly going to need a lot of toning lol.

Im due February 24th and im at 20 weeks and so far ive gained 30 lbs. I went from 130 to 160 in 5 months and i feel huge. But the way i look at it is, its worth it. Even though i do hope to lose all this baby weight, you get an amazing gift out of it in the end!

Wow its cool to hear stories and compare pregnancies as every one is so different. I am 20 weeks and gained 20 lbs already! Thing is I don't have a belly yet and ppl think I gained weight. I mean all the weight is in my boobs *** and belly but no bump yet:(none of my clothes fit and it's depressing. I mean if I had a belly bump ok but I don't so I just feel fat.

Omg ladies I feel u!! I'm due the 25 this is my third one and they are close so I haven't quite lost all of the baby weight from #2 and my monster in law keeps insisting I'm having twins when I have already had a u/s and there is only one baby. And I've only gained like 9 pounds what the heck!

Im due the 2nd and I lost some weight in my first trimester but have gained it back plus about 8lbs. I feel fat a lot and I was slightly overweight in the belly area to begin with. It ***** feeling fat and I tell my bf when I feel fat and hes tells me "youre not fat youre just preggers, hunny so preggers" lol Its nice knowing he doesnt think im fat and always reasures me that Im pretty all the time.

I'm due the 2nd and I feel huge! My mother-In law(to be) asked me the other day if I was 7 months...I haven't even gained any weight. Talk about feeling self conscious. My belly is so big that if I stand up straight and look down I can't see my feet.
