My body hang ups.

[flexilexi394]

I'm just gonna ave a small moan about my body, sorry.

Well before being pregnant I was relatively slim and fit, being a fitness instrutor and having lots of horses to sort out.

Since being pregnant I was managing really well, not gained much on the scales at all, even now I'm only 1 and a half stone heavier than before.

I know it's just pregnancy, but I'm out of breath doing silly things, I hurt when I walk too much, if I do "too much" in a day, the next day I'm absolutely shattered, and I don't like this!!

I can still touch my toes and stuff, but hate that drying and washing myself has become a bit challenging.

I went to a 50th birthday meal at the weekend, and wore a lcely bright red dress. But I look like a house!! Although I've not put on weight, I loon so much wider from the front, and just generally do unhappy about how I look! I know it's silly, but I actually can't wait til I can go on a diet and aim to be skinny again. My boobs are absolutely huge. I just feel overtaken by my own body! My bump isn't even that huge, I just feel like baby is in my bum, thighs and sides! My arms are the same, and I haven't even had to buy bigger clothes, I just don't feel like I look ok.

At least once I've had the baby I can become what I want to again, and I actually do get hung up on what people may be saying about me, mainly because I used to get comments on how good I looked (and I did look ok!) but now I get the impression everyones like "what's happened to her?!

Stupid, but I can't help it. Lol. X

It's not stupid, we all go through this feeling pants about how we look. I have put on 1 stone 4lb too now and am up to 11 stone 4 from my normal 10 stone.

We both don't have long to go now , and then believe me, if you want the weight off, you will ensure it comes off esp with your job! It really won't take as long as you think with that weight amount. I always put on about 1.5 stone and after the baby is born, I seem to get left with about 10lbs I think to loose, so that's all good. Sounds like most of yours is on your boobs, and that's not fat hun!

You will get all the wow you look great comments back as people will see howk well you have done shifting the weight. X

 

[ippa]

Well I have been eating well, doing exercise etc and I have still put on about 2 stone! I have put it on everywhere tho even my face! So I understand what you mean about not liking the way you look etc, and your certainly not the only one hun! I guess it's just another of the things us women have to worry about, seriously men get it easy lol!
XxX

 

[x.Lilly.x]

Dont worry hun your not alone and deffo not silly.
I think alot of pregnant women feel this way.
Just think only a few more weeks left hun and youll have ur body back.

Know how you feel though, iv put on 1 1/2 stone, mostly bump but my arse is mahoosive and i have proper chubby cheeks now as well!
I can't wait to give birth and have my body back etc x

 

[Mrs.s]

i know how you feel although i have put on like 3stone nearly I feel horrible and cant wait to have my body back but strangely I think I will miss being pregnant!! lol

 

[flexilexi394]

Thanks guys I know it's kinda stating the obvious, but it bothers me lol. Ahh mrs.s I think that not being pregnant again is gonna be wierd! We have gone through something so different it will be strange. I can safely say Im not gonna miss it though haha. Parenting is the next challenge! Gonna be fun! Maybe that in itself will get me back into shape lol x

 

[Mrs.s]

Yea i cant for the baby to be here its gonna be fantastic and then I can go on a diet but my plan is to get back in shape and then start thinking about the next one!! hahaha

 

[flexilexi394]

Haha cool!! I think ongoing to have to wait a few years til I'm allowed to have another one! X

 

[JJ Mum]

Haha cool!! I think ongoing to have to wait a few years til I'm allowed to have another one! X

Good plan Mrs S

Oh you never know Lexi - We started trying when Toby was just 8 weeks old ! ha ha I so wanted a third at the time! I felt so unfinshed, I rememeber bawling my eyes out when he was 3 days old, that I couldn't end motherhood there! It took a few months luckily!, and I had my daughter 13 months after he was born, then felt very ready to call it a day!

erm......

 

[flexilexi394]

Lol then you decided a few year later you'd do it just one more time.......and here you are! Haha! X

 

[Mrs.s]

haha JJ I think this is going to be me i can feel it happening already I cant even contemplate the thought that one day I will never be pregnant again!! lol I think a lot of it is because my mum had my little brother when I was 10 so I have always been like a second mummy to him and I see him now at 13 and he is so grown up which is nice but its so sad too and I feel it prob not quite as much as my mum but I feel that sadness that he isnt a baby or child anymore now he is a teenager
