Thunder thighs!!

[xJuliex]

Arghhh anybody else have this problem?
i think i've put about 19lbs on since my 8 week appointment and don't look to have gained weight anywhere else except my thighs and bum (and bump ov course!! i have quite chunky thighs anyway so i'm not impressed lol

^^wss. Everyone keeps telling me i have only put weight on my boobs and bump.... my thighs are enourmous and my bum is huge!! lol

 

[xJuliex]

why does it seem to cling to these places? lol im praying some may be water retention hahah x

Yup, spent the day at work being very uncomfortable as my maternity trousers are now feeling very tight around the thighs. My mum also kindly pointed out that my legs were looking chunky at Christmas! Thanks mum! Hoping it wont take long to loose once baby is here, if not I'm going to need a whole new wardrobe! Can't wait to go for a jog!

i haven't noticed weight anywhere else apart from my thighs!!! (obvs bump) but yeah its really common for fat stores to build on thighs..... not sure why but it does, should be easy enough to lose after birth though

maybe its extra padding so our hips can cope with a heavy baby bump? lol xx

 

[xJuliex]

ohh god the joys eh lol the fat ass and thunder thighs will all be worth it though haha x

I'm sure no one else can even tell (you looked great in your bumpy pic - no thunder thighs there!) and it's offset by the bump. I swear I have put a stone on my chin... it's really turning into a double one, I keep straining my neck trying to stop it from looking too bad. Why am I fat storing in my chin?!?

its water retention ..i cannot WAIT to wear non stetchy clothes, jeans ahhh i miss them so much..

 

[xJuliex]

i knoww me too! cannot wait to get a nice summer wardrobe! and at least we can use that as our motivation for losing the baby weight!

I have never been so relieved than when I read this! I honestly thought it was just me who had put on weight on my thighs!
I've got a massive bump and thighs but no weight anywhere else, thank you feel so much better now x x

I think I remember reading that it naturally stores in the thighs and lower back in prep for breast feeding - mine have been rubbing together for weeks - no impressed

 

[xJuliex]

at least we all know were not alone haha roll on the day i can get my pre preg jeans past my thighs again lol x
