I am FAT!!!!!!!!!!!

[Rubys mummy]

Sorry to whinge but got really upset today....

Firstly I am loving being pregnant, I have never felt so happy and healthy and can honestly ay I am loving every second so far.....

Always had a weight problem, have to work hard to stay at a size 16, I am tall and curvy but active and eat healthily..

Anyway my darling sister rang me today (she is also PG-16 weeks and looks really neat and pregnant) She saw an old work collegue of both of us yesterday who commented she had seen me in M&S on friday...Sis said "Oh did you know Zoe is expecting?!" to which "friend" replied "Oh thank God for that, I just thought she had put on LOADS of weight!"

I am trying not to be bothered by this, but I am really quite upset-I dont look PG I dont think, just round at the mo...I am so worried I will end up so fat that my OH will trade me in for a slimmer model, and baby will hate the sight of its fat mummy!!! xxx

aww huni i look like a donut!!!

i think you need a hug

 

[Rubys mummy]

Thankies Hev, hug back

I am thinking of investing in a t shirt that says "I am not fat, I am pregnant" and wear it 24/7

I cant wait ot have a proper baby bump!!

R u a ring doughnut or a jam one??!!! MMmmm doughnuts (goes off to sulk in corner coz she is too fat to even consider eating one ever again )

 

[hev&madi]

im a custard donut lol (i want one now!)

im 23 weeks an i dont think i look preg

 

[Rubys mummy]

Oh my, I certainly hope by 23 weeks I have an obvious bump or I am hibernating until January.

I swim 3 times a week usually-been so busy in work I havent been for a while a lunch times-now I am scared to go incase they try and harpoon me out of the water!! WHALE ALERT!!!xx

im glad im not to big though other wise im going to be HUGE by the time the babies born lol

Zoe I'm like a watermelon!! I am in Denmark where everyone are tall and have neat bumps and I'm 5 ft 1 with humungous breasts and huge beach ball belly! To make matters worst my thighs were rubbing together today

You will look pregnant, it happened all of a sudden to me. People have evne started asking when I'm due rather than just eyeing me up thinking is she or isn't she!

You sound like your really keeping fit and healthy, you have nothing to worry about, I bet you look gorgeous

 

[Rubys mummy]

Thanks Skatty

My OH and work pals are all saying pregnancy suits me, I am glowing and look "really well" I feel like I am glowing as I am so happy at being pregnant-I have waited a long time for this special time..

OH has made me promise not to moan or worry-he says the most important thing is keeping healthy for me and the baby

I have made a decision to work really hard once LO is here to get out with the pram and our active doggie every day-we live right on the waterfront so a daily walk should soon shit them pounds

I feel awful now moaning over something so stupid-I am so lucky to be pregnant and should just enjoy it xxxxx

today i went to see the midwife and a sayt next to a girl who was pregnant oto. I asked her how many weeks she was and she said 32. I thought oh im not so big then am i. Then she said 'but im having twins'

I'm with you on this one Skatty - i'm only 5ft 1 and now i've started to show a bit i look like a weeble. my thighs have started to rub together too and it's awfull.
I think i just look fat but people can tell the difference (or at the very least they're being polite).

Don't worry and just enjoy this miraculous time.

im 5ft 8 thats why i dont think im showing that much

 

[Daggers]

Personally I feel like a beached whale! And the ribbing tights, well I've always have fairly big upper legs but the pregnancy has made then even bigger - I daren't wear anything put trousers as I know I'll get me a rubbing rash - nice !.
Yesterday it was rather amusing as my OH watched me roll my way of the sofa!!! So elegant! I felt like a turtle stuck on it's back!

 

[Jaidy]

Im nearly 15 weeks as you know Zoe and I swear I just look like a big ball of flab!! I have a bump in some clothes and others I just look FAT. I get well paranoid that when im walking down the street people are thinking 'Gosh look at Jade she looks like she has put on weight'.
I get really down somedays, I am continually asking OH if I have a fat arse (which I know I do now!!) he gets sooo annoyed.
I know we should appreciate our changing bodies but this inbetween stage doesnt half SUCK

 

[Melly+2]

i am only 5ft 1 and i have got a bump the size of a football, it didnt start growing til bout month and a half ago, i still feel really fat though

 

[Rubys mummy]

Ah girls, you have all made me feel so much better!!!
I feel so blessed to be pregnant so I should embrace my expanding waist line and enjoy this special time!!
I fully intend to get back into shape once LO is here, ebyone keeps telling me the weight just falls off coz you are too busy to eat!!??

I can pray for a miracle!!

Bump is funny today, I just looked like a flabby belly low down before, now its getting so its moving upwards towards my bobbies!! Hurrah!!
Still have an ass the size of a small country tho...

 

[Rubys mummy]

Hey, just thought I would post a piccie of me today....................

 

[Lynsey]

Zoe C, do I have to come around to your house and tell you off?!!! I bet you are looking fab! You have a cute little baby in there making a little home...I'm just going to have another biscuit to make my baby more comfy....!!

 

[Rubys mummy]

Tee hee!! Mmmm biccies, havent got any but might flutter my eye lashes at OH and get him to whizz to shop

Loads of people have said this week I am blooming so I am going to relish the praise and love my body-after all its helping make my beautiful baby so it cant be that bad can it!!

I love you girls, you always make me feel soooo much better

 

[Melly+2]

thats wot we are here for we all feel a bit crap sumtimes and need a bit of reasurance

 

[skatty]

Ha ha, sounds like we are all feeling like houses! I might be getting big but everyone keeps telling me I look great and I feel great too wich is the main thing. I like running so I am going to get back into that but I will wait for a few months after the birth because your joints can still be loose.

Just think we can all go on a diet together by the end of the year
