    Susan, sorry, that's hilarious!!! Weight on your fingers! Oh my sides!:rotfl:
    emlou if your OH is telling you hes happy as you are then he is he most not think your big at all :) im not happy with my figure either (the pack of morning coffees i just ate didnt help) but im will be shifting it ... anybody wanna join in on the baby weight shifting???? have our own mini weight lose club :D x

    I'll join. I do Slimming World and have kept gonig to class mainly throughout my pg. Am technically a target member as you get to put 2st on if you're at target when you get pg. I know I struggle to lose it though. Took me ages after Imogen so not imagining it'll be any easier this time around.

    Good morning Ladies, thanks for your replies.......Can I ask something please?

    What is arnica cream and where can I get it? Ive just been putting savlon on any x

    Asda had a Nelsons one (same brand as the teething powders) in my local chemist-in-the-supermarket.

    Just been told to "Stop the computering!" by Imogen, so best go and give her some quality attention.

    I don't really want to lose the weight I gained as I'm finally not underweight but it would be nice if the fat off my tummy went back to wear it used to live on my fingers. I can only wear my wedding ring in the summer because my fingers shrank and my ring falls off in winter. OH doesn't want to pay to have it shrunk as he's convinced my fingers will grow bigger again.
    :rotfl:
    I'm the same with my watch, its tight in summer and loose in winter:rolleyes:

    congratulations - what exciting news :D

    I'm the same - dropped all the weight and back to regular size (i'm an 8-10) but I have this extra belly that I never had before :( It means things fit me differently and I'm not liking it. Upon asking OH what he thought he said he loved me but sit-ups were the way forward. I may just learn to live with it - that's probably easier than the sit-ups!!!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: oh and thank godness for control knickers - they were my saviour at my sisters wedding ;):T
    If your facebook profile pic is from the wedding then you looked fabulous!:D

    my milk is really dwindling and I have really noticed that my boobs are shrinking - which is really unfair as they never grew all through pregnancy and baby arriving :confused: so I'll be smaller there than when I started...my positive outlook on that one is that perhaps I can fit into some of the more fashion led bras now - before hand I was a bravissimo only girl :D
    My boobs were smaller after I stopped feeding Chris in measurements I was 30DD before and a 32D after not that bad but to look at they were much less perky :(:p wonderbra's are my friends now :D
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    God I really need to lose weight....I am disgusting!!

    Dh went last night and picked up his new motorbike, which meant trying it out today and us taking pics of each other sat on it etc... anyway the minute I saw myself I nearly burst into tears, I am actually fatter then I thought I was:( I am sooo down about it. I walk around sweating in jeans and big tops because I can't bear to wear shorts/skirts/dresses or strappy tops, even in this heat!! Anyway what a self obsessed, whining post that was, Sorry! I will hop on over to the other thread in a bit.

    Best go check the bottle is cool enough for Kai to drink he is telling me he's hungry.

    i saw a couple of you say your back in your pre bubs gear ... so not jealous :whistle: ..
    you are joking? your LO is a week or so old!!!

    it came to a head for me this week when i bought a size 20 pair of cropped jeans :( i have never owned any size 20 clothing in my life ever! sorry if i've offended anyone saying that, but i am only 5ft3 and i dont carry weight well at all, its all on my arms and hips :( i guess they are called hips anyway, they seem higher than everyone elses :confused: almost like low love handles on the side - i look vile anyway!!

    smaller plates filled with lots of veg... thats the way i'm going with this i think
