MY BUMP!!!!

up until a week ago i felt that my bump was still quite flabby. i wasnt exactly small before and alth shap was there in some trousers i just looked fat. last friday i bought a new coat and it fastened round my bump, this week it wont go anywhere near and i was looking in the mirror yesterday and i actually have a bump lol.

can i also ask if any of you ladies know what is the "normal" amount of weight to gain during each trimester. with reanna i had put 2 stone on by end of 2nd trimester but with this one altho im eating anythin and everythin i have only put on 7lbs so far! is this ok?

I don;t think there is a normal amount of weight. I didn't put on in first tri, although I got bigger, and about 1/2 stone in second. Probabaly about 1 stone in 3rd tri till now. I've never been weighed at antenatal as they just don't consider it important. As long as baby is growing right, I wouldn't worry about it - just enjoy being able to eat without the guilt!

they weigh me at every antenatal appointment and this is how i know how much ive gained or else i wouldnt keep track maybe its because im classed as overweight and have a high bmi so they are just watching it.
