I feel horrible about myself :/ I feel like I a am an ompa loompa bc I'm short and round. All I am is belly and nothing else I feel horrible I have never felt this big ever. I have issues with my body. Being called fat all my life it ***** and feels that every where I go I get staired at and not in a good way. I feel you. But you are going to go back to being the tiny you.

@celi that's just rude! I went from 130 to 190 with my first. 130 to 160 with my second and I'm 132 right now at 16 w worth my third and that's what I started at. Everyone and every pregnancy is different. No need to make anyone feel worse!

Aw don't worry honey you aren't alone. I'm 4'11 and went from 132 to 180 as well and I'm gaining more and more. My stretch marks are about a centimeter wide and deep and go up all the way past my belly button. They wrap around my back and go down my thighs, down into my nether region and tbh I have stretch marks coming out of my butt crack. It doesn't get worse lol! You're beautiful and it's all for your cute little babydoll

I know how you feel, their wrong though, i was at the store and i politely asked this lady to move over so i could squeeze by cuz she was in the middle of the isle and she's all or you could just go around fat *** and i was like uhhh okay?? She was shaking and obviously withdrawing from some kind of drug and like 80 pounds...i made sure she knew it was obvious she was on drugs lol

I know its hard. And in this emotional state its easier for people to get to us. Try not to listen as best you can. And find things to keep your mind off people. Clear your head by reading books, light some lightly scented  candles and soak your feet. Some people can be cruel without meaning to. Those types of people will back iff if you let them know their words hurt.

I feel the same way. I just keep gaining weight! But its all worth it and when our precious baby gives us our bodies back to ourselves, we will lose all the weight again. I know exactly how you feel though

Dont listen to them.  You're in the process of creating a beautiful baby. Thats a tiresome job that'll take its toll on any woman. Im gaining a large amount of weight as well. Be proud of your body and the miracle it is creating! You are beautiful no matter what!!
