Pfffft. Oh Ok! So i'm deluding myself then, yes my bottom has got bigger and my thighs have slightly and yes there is a hint of a double chin (from some angles) . But in my mind i am a perfectly proportioned size 8 with a bump.

I have absolutely no idea how much weight i put on with DS five years ago. I do know that i had him on 10th dec and was definately in a normal pair of size 8 jeans on Christmas day.

P.S. I was ironing the other day and OH said you have a proper pregnant shape now, you look like a duck. My answer was that my backside now had to stick out to balance my boobs and bump or i would fall over. OH is so lovely. NOT!

Oops sorry!!

I too look like duck - I blame it on the clothes I'm wearing at the time but am sure my a$$ sticks out more now than it did!!!

Definitely agree, mine folds over at the bottom as well whereas it didn't before . I just keep telling myself that at least it will be more comfy for OH when I sit on his knee!

Well OH is currently "Eating for England" due to steroid medication. If he carries on like this he too will look like a duck, but at least i will (hopefully) loose it all come September.

Can't afford his current appetite. Hes eating me out of house and home. God knows how many packets of crisps he's eaten recently. Even had to top up on Junk at Asda on Tuesday and the 3 multipacks have nearly already gone. And it has nothing to do with me, because i don't even like the crisps that i bought. Am thinking may have to venture into town at the weekend to somewhere like Poundland just to stock up on crisps - does anyone happen to know if the multipacks they sell come in bigger sizes that 6pack. If not will stick to Asdas 3 for £3.

Thats after a trip to Aldi to try and get some of their 49p fruit. Fed up of also spending a fortune on pre-packed pre-cut fruit salads. He can cut up his own and keep it in a lock and lock container in the fridge.

How did my weight gain, change into a rant about Ohs eating excessive habits!? lol

WM - what about something that will fill him up more than crisps?
Like flapjacks or a bowl of porridge - oats are filling.

(waits to be told he can't eat oats)

I think I was being overambitious there, trying to check lotto results.... for Saturday.:o

I'm 5ft5inch and was a size 16 :rotfl:

Glam, sorry you reminded me of a nasty incident in Morrisons one day a few months back. This woman was standing blocking the full isle with her trolley and a woman with 2 young kids asked her to move so they could get by. He partner (who had a huger bump than her and she was far on) started yelling and swearing that she was pregnant! Right in the face of this woman and her little kids stared crying!!! DH and I were right behing them and him and this other guy tried to get this fat lump to chill out so we got yelled at about how his wife is Fking pregnant, so I pipes up 'well so am I but I don't feel the need to block a full isle with a trolley! And by the looks of it mate, your gonna pop before she does!'. Fat man stomps away leaving pregnant wife alone to deal with security guard who finally shows up, woman with two howling kids and a large audiance!

Three things to update people on .... I think the first and third are for Beenie, can't remember who discussed the second!

(1) Checked the vouchers in my (Asda) Bounty pack, and they're all dated 31st August. Hopefully I'll be able to afford stuff by then!

(2) Finally got the voucher today from Emma's Diary for the Lloyds Pharmacy gift-pack. Samples of stretch mark cream, and 2 disposable nursing pads, plus the usual plethora of leaflets.

(3) Got my Healthy Start vouchers through today :j :j :j

Glam, He is currently off work sick, and eats constantly and i mean constantly through-out the day. But is apparently too tired to actually cook anything. Most excessive thing he will do is make a sandwich. So he just wants food he can get out of the fridge or cupboard. And i know porridge only takes a few minutes, but try telling him that. I am at work all day, i get home and he asks me whats for tea. This is usually followed by a lot of expletives from me, so he then offers to order take out. He will eat a huge tea, whatever it may be, then half an hour later he's in the cupboards. I made him a brew last night, to go with it, he then had two packets of square crisps, a chocolate mini roll, a prepacked fruit salad and an activia yoghurt. Its just not right.

May make some of twinks hob-nobs at the weekend. I find them quite filling. But will probably make a batch and find them all gone in a day.:rotfl:

Anyway, five mins and i'm off home. Not done much work this afternoon. I just can't be bothered.
