How big?!

[PrincessPeanut]

Ok, so I have this thing where at the moment I just think people look at me and think I'm just podgy and not actually pregnant. I have serious weight issues in the past and I'm trying my hardest to overcome them at the moment. I've gone from an underweight size 8 to a hefty size 12 and growing but I'm trying my hardest not to let it bother me.

Now I hadn't realised how big I've actually got. OH and I were at our new house at the weekend and I hadn't realised he'd taken a photo of me in the garden..... I know all you ladies are going to be sweet and say it's all bump but I can't help but think, yes I've got a bump but I'm still podgy....




Fatty in the making!! LoL!

We were lying in bed last night too and LO started kicking away. As soon as I got OH to put his hand on my tummy she stopped. Then after a few minutes I told OH to stop twitching his fingers else he wouldn't feel anything, then he turned and pointed out he hadn't moved a muscle it was little one kicking away where he'd put his hand!! lol!!

You look lovely! Not podgy, pregnant! I know how you feel though, I just feel podgy as I don't think I look pregnant yet. I often wonder what people at my gym are thinking as I def look fat in my gym clothes, they probably wondering why I'm working out so slow instead of getting on with it and why I've suddenly got a podgy tummy!

Oh hun, you honestly don't look fat, you look pregnant!

You def look pregnant honey, not fat!! I am huge so I do understand where you're coming from, fed fed up of people asking me if there is more than one blah blah! I have had that through all my pregnancies!

Deffo look pregnant, not fat!! I have back fat so I know I look fat lol

Oh hun, you do not look anything like podgy! You look healthy and pregnant to me!
I have weighed myself this morning and am not too happy at the scales, but I am just going to have to get on with it and say that whatever happens as long as baby is healthy that's all that matters.....I can start the long road back to a healthy weight once little one is here, but for now I gotta try and do the best I can to be healthy and give bubba what it needs!

I really wouldn't worry yourself hun as you look great! Good luck with the new house xxxx

U can see by the curve in your belly it's a baby bump but it's hard Shen u feel like your in those in between stages! Well the man in sains yest said I looked like I was going to pop!! I was like I still got 8 weeks lol! Xx

Def baby bump, have similar chubby back bits to those described by Tracey M.

Actually had someone comment that I was puting on weight the other day, was shocked and made my excuses, walked away almost in tears. Apparently she quite rightly looked embarassed when it was pointed out that I'm almost 5 months gone.

It's good to have a definite bump! Not all chivalry is dead, someone gave up their seat on the train for me the other day. Oooooooh and the public loos that you normally have to pay in let you in for free. Pregnancy has to have some perks other than the beautiful bubba at the end!
