Frustration

by crk05, Jun 14, 2008 11:24PM
So ladies I have been really frusterated lately. I live in Texas and everyone knows that it is hot and miserable in the summer not to add being pregnant. I have always been pretty petite minus my HUGE *** but what can you do. I am not taking gaining weight so well. My boyfriend is a major health nut and works out everyday for two hours and he looks great and I get so down by looking at him. I am getting bigger by the week and my *** and legs wont quit getting bigger. Although I don't look like I am almost 25 weeks I feel huge. My doctor has told me I am little but the baby is healthy and normal even though my tummy is small.

My boyfriends birthday is on the 4th of July and his parents rented a beach house for a week and I am down because I don't want to be in a bathing suit in front of everyone I am probably 128 but I am only 5'2 so I look huge in my opinion and not to add my back is killing me and I don't know what to do.

Sorry I just need to vent. AWW..

I know how you feel about living in that f*cking HEAT down there.
I was there from November till amost May and I was MISERABLE because I'm used to the cold weather here in Massachusetts.
I ended up moving back to my home state because of I was having issues with my boyfriend's mother, and I was having insurance issues too because Texas wouldn't accept my Massachusetts insurance.

I'm 24w3d now and even up HERE it's f*cking miserable!
And now it turns out, my hubby has a Job waiting for him in Longview, so I gatta move BACK to Tyler... UGH!
And it STAYS hot there!
Like straight through the fall it's SCORCHING!

I'm leaving in the beginning of August to go back down there. I'm NOT happy.

Since by then I'll be 8 months pregnant,
I'm gunna be even MORE miserable because atleast up here it simmers back to a coolness once September comes and I could have enjoyed the rest of my pregnancy... but NOOOoooo... I gatta go back to f*cking TEXAS!
omg

So I gatta deal with being HUGE... sweating my fat pregnant A$$ off in that HEAT... *PLUS* deal with my hubby's ***** of a mother...
Boy am *I* in for it!

I'm 5'5 and I weigh 210 at my last doc's apt last week.
I lost 40lbs when I first got pregnant and got all the way down to 189 by my 3rd month... and now I get to gain all that back and THEN some... so if you think YOU'RE a cow...
Most of mine is muscle though  because I used to be a state swim racer... so I really don't look THAT bad... but still... when you got that belly pokin 2 feet infront of you... you can't help but feel fatter than the rest of the world. lol

Oh well... what makes my day is that how my hubby's parents want us back SO BAD... [[we gatta move in with them till I finish getting my Nursing degree.]] Since they think they're bada$$ cuz the father makes $15,000 a friggin month... HE gets to pay for my last two months of pregnancy. HA
Cuz my hubby's insurance won't pick up on me and the baby until she's born.

Oh well.
It's their fault.
We coulda stayed up here and I coulda got covered for FREE but NOOOoooOOO... they wanted us back down there, and my hubby just HAD to agree... so he went and found himself a job workin at the oil feild...
Hey, atleast it's good money, right?
lol

Ah I'm sorry I ranted.
LOL
Damn hormones.

i honestly dont think you should feel that way obviously everyone knows your pregnant... I feel ok being big im 5"2" also and way 129lbs and im 23wks preg  so im there with you. and i think your boyfriend should be proud of the way you look, cuz its his baby growing in you, and your his...

Yeah, me and heat DONT mix!!!!!! EVERYTIME Im preg, you usually find me in the basement where its MUCH cooler!!! Jumpins, Ive had my A/C's runnin for almost a month now!!!  

So CRK05, maybe you'd feel more comfy in shorts and a tank top or something. People are going to understand that you're uncomfortable with your body because youre preggers. But think of it this way,,,,,, once youre in the water coolin off, youre gonna be really happy youre there!!!!! WHO CARES what people think of what youre wearing!!! I bet youre beautiful!!! And youre family and friends think the same.

Have a great day ladies!!!

Yeah I agree with the others.  I have a beach trip scheduled in Aug with my inlaws and dont really look forward to the whole bathing suit think but I am gonna enjoy my fat butt out on the beach!!  Most men find pregnant women very beautiful and attractive believe it or not!!!!  But I think a tank and shorts would be a good idea if that would make you more comfortable.  Enjoy your trip!!  It will probably be your last trip without a baby!!  Good luck and the weight does come off after pregnancy, esp if you plan to breast feed!  The pounds melted off of me when I breastfed my last baby!

Yeah, you can buy swimmin trunks for women. I have a pair. Have to wear them UNDER my belly but oh well. Im not a self concious person. If people dont like what theyre lookin at, TURN YOUR FREAKIN HEAD!!! HAHAHA

Anyhow, what Im sayin is DONT GIVE UP A BEACH VAC JUST CUZ YOU DONT LIKE THE WAY YOU LOOK!!!! Whats that teaching your child??????
