I was 8st 3lbs with tiny boobs, it's nice to finally have a cleavage but they seem to have stopped growing now . Hope they grow some more soon.

Was a bit self conscious yesterday by my bump, someone said I had 'sprouted' and for some reason it really upset me, I was wearing a tight dress at the time which makes my bump look bigger but got trousers and a long top on today.

Jenny I forgot how close we are in dates ha ha, how was your 20 week scan? I get funny over the bump as well, it is clearly there and waddle slightly now but say no there isnt anything there to people ha ha, how much weighthave you put on already?

Hi all,

Hope everyone is having a great day.

The weight issue is a great source of anxiety for me (always has been really). I lost 3 stone before I got pregnant but still wasnt down to my ideal but was in the healthy BMI range. Last time I checked at 16 wks I'd put 8lbs on but since then I simply cannot stop eating. I didn't seem to have this last time I was pregnant but I still ended up with 3 and a half stone that needed shifting afterwards. God knows how bad it will be this time.

I'm terrified of ending up feeling extremely uncomfortable (I'm only 5'1'') and having no clothes that will fit me. Plus being big can give you problems during pregnancy and the birth.

Still my compulsion to eat has gone through the roof and is making me feel miserable at the mo. Sorry to be a moaner

Tried to have a nap and couldn't. Dunno why my legs feel so restless!

I'm only 5'1 too Fidget!

I didn't put anything on in the first 12-ish weeks, then up til week 36 I had put on 1 stone 4lbs, which was a steady increase and didn't affect me too much. In the 4 weeks since then, I put on another 7lbs really quickly and the stress of that increase sent my legs, hips and back very painful boooooo.

I suspect a chunk of my weight gain was to do with me stopping all my gym activities for nearly the whole pregnancy due to tiredness, my bum and thighs will not thank me for it!

Edit: Thinking about it, week 36 was when I stopped going to work, so that lack of extra activity probably didn't help. My plan was to spend my newly free time going on walks and on the Wii etc, but never happened lol.

Sorry ladies for the post above, but it had to be done

Not much to update you with really. I can't join in the weight discussion cos I really have no ideas how much I weighed before and how much I have put on. I know I have got bigger on the bum/thigh are, but I stopped going to the gym soon after finding out I was pregnant - I was too tired and could justify the £50 per month expense - I also eat loads more than I used too!

ETA: Oh, it's quiet on here today!
