Another FTM posted about being full figured and pregnant. Being a part of that category, I wanted to post my belly shot. Depending on if you know me or not, I either look chubby, or pregnant. I hope pregnant.
Lurker alert...almost out of 1st trimester
You are GORGEOUS! And definitely a baby bump...you have that pregnancy glow I am hoping to get once my morning sickness goes away!!!
Pregnant - and I'm also on the team that thinks your hair is TO-DIE-FOR. I used to have wavy, voluminous hair, then it fell pretty flat after I got pregnant. So sad. lol
Also, I think the "glue your hand to your belly" thing is a great idea. I do that, too, when I wear maternity dresses. I'm more petite than full-figured, but sometimes I still feel like I look like I'm weirdly chubby, not pregnant in looser clothes.
You look fabulous and pregnant to me!!! I'm one of five PG women in my family and the only one over size eight. My size24 MIL totally asked if I was sure I wasn't having twins a few weeks ago. Hubby was pissed at her. I just look at my extra weight as a year supply of breast milk :
beautiful, full figured, and def. pregnant! Team PS & pregnant!
My FIL's gf has been shooting me nasty comments about how fat i'm going to get, and to not over eat. I just saw her today and the first thing she said to me was "wow, have you gained weight? have you been over eating??" Not, how is the baby doing, which should be the priority. My MIL defended me, and put her in her place. And no, I haven't gained any weight yet... but my body is changing because well, im pregnant!!
Screw all those nasty comments that people say, your beautiful... we are all beautiful!
i'm sharing my most recent picture too. I don't really have a bump yet, but i'll flaunt and put my hand over my belly anytime!
rpale29 - you are gorgeous! Work that bump. I went from not really showing to "omg I can't get up on my own!" pretty quickly.
Again, thank you, ladies. I really appreciate the comment.
SO's family asks me all the time, "Are you sure you aren't carrying twins?! She looks like she's laying sideways!" "No... I'm just full and pregnant. Ty, though."
My SO is used to me being much smaller. I was a size 10 when we met. So he's struggling with my weight. Pregnancy certainly has its ups and downs - but you all made me feel AMAZING!
Btw, with my hair - I'm of Italian/Hungarian lineage and that has a lot to do with it. I dye it from dark brown to black with Natural Instincts and I use herbal essence shampoo/conditioner. I swear, that's it. Nothing fancy - I have too much hair to try and do anything else with it.
You look amazing! Beautiful and pregnant You are absolutely gorgeous!
I think everyone PS should post a pic in this thread to give other PS pregnant women encouragement that they are just as beautiful as a size 2 pregnant woman!
That being said, here is my latest picture at 19 weeks.
No where near as nice looking as you are but hopefully I will get there in a few weeks
Re: Full Figured - Belly Shot
Damn straight that's what I do. I give it a good rub on occasion, too.

Agreed. My hair just got kind of dry and brittle when I got pregnant. I'm totally jealous right now.....
