She'll be back (or ones like her) in February like, "ZOMG, I bled for 6 days and am back to pre preggy size, any one else? Is there something wrong?!?" Yes, yes there is something wrong, you're an asshole. That's what's wrong.
@nickicb7 not a TW. I suffered from an eating disorder whenever I was younger. Pointless posts like that are damaging and useless to the community. Hence my cringing.
@nickicb7 Nope! She's the attention seeking TW to begin with. I saw nothing but a nice thick layer of guilt which she completely deserves. She needs to see another pov.

It will go well with "Is it normal my newborn is sleeping through the night and I'm getting plenty of sleep and this isn't that hard!!!"

I hate playing the eating disorder card, but when you have suffered from it, it never really goes away and some things are just major triggers. This FTM weight gain was not easy to accept in the beginning, but I finally feel like I'm accepting it and starting to enjoy my journey... And then that happened.
When I log in, I come to this thread first to catch up (total lurker) and also so I'll know which threads to read next for the most entertainment. Thank you for keeping me updated.

Yes exactly. I didn't start gaining my weight back until I got married. I kept unintentionally trying to revert back to my old crap and I just keep having to remind myself "I'm not big, I am NORMAL." I will take healthy baby over a small frame any day.

I'm sorry it bothered you so much, there are some things that people literally don't even think about before type-vomiting everywhere in here (remember abortion lady?). I'd say just ignore it, but I know that's hard to do when it's a trigger. So just vent, let it all out so you can try to get back to happy. We're here for people who truly want support.
@RepeatPostPolice true. Trying to figure out why she would post that, and assuming maybe she has an eating disorder or body dysmorphia of her own. That's the only way it would make sense to me. I'm a logic person and I'm frustrated that I can't find the logic behind her post lol
Stayed home from work today because of some lovely back pains. Can't even sit up for 5 minutes without being in pain.... Now after reading several posts about them I'm seriously debating going to a drive through for French toast sticks, screw my back!

I'm afraid I have to say you're not going to. She didn't give any background on why she asked that particular question, just made some statements that only vaguely correlate. Not very well articulated, which is frustrating.
I think any kind of body shaming is wrong. Getting told you're too big or too small while pregnant isn't helpful to anyone. Everyone has different body shapes and sizes, some people are just naturally thin while others have to work for their desired body. That said I don't think coming on a pregnancy website and complaining you are too small is a smart choice.

I read through the post and I dont think you were out of bounds at all. I dont get the point of that feed. Im sorry you went through what you did. Do not feel bad about anything going on with your body!
I dont think people understand that everyone body is different. One person may gain more then another. Some people who are shorter (me) may look like we gain more then a tall person. People metabolisms are different. Some people cant eat certain things. To post a post asking why they havent gained weight is a slap in the face to those, like myself, who have and just makes us feel bad about it. Like we are doing something wrong. But we arent. We are just different. So lets ignore it and go for french toast! I wish we all lived close and could hang.
Edit: Im out of ice in my water bottle and Im at work so I dont have access to any. Worst day.
We aren't doctors. Giving her crap for coming on here and bragplaining about her skinny pregnancy is one thing, but to be like, "Hey, maybe she has an eating disorder" is totally different. Don't come to the internet for logic. Come for the snark, stay for the JGL gifs.
There are just some days where I know that DH totally gets me. I asked him to pick me up some M&Ms at the store. What does he bring back? The 42oz party size! Best husband award goes to him today!
I've been watching the last ship on tnt... Mark Sloan as a navy captain...swoon
I lurk more than I should on this thread, because I'm always too far behind to join the conversation. But, last night, I was binging Last Ship because I'm a few episodes behind. So, I couldn't resist this:
^^ Just popped my .gif cherry. Soooo worth the wait. :x

The awesome thing about this thread is you are never too far behind to join the conversation! If you want to bring something back up to the forefront I don't imagine any of us being against you quoting the initial start of the conversation to add what you'd like.

I don't know if anyone ever said that you get used to poop when it's your baby's but I'm sorry you really don't. I had a pretty shitty morning. Pun totally intended!

@sherks11 MINE. TOO. This just happened yesterday!!! I asked him to bring me home peanut M&Ms, but I didn't want to ask for the big bag lol. So I didn't specify which size and just crossed my fingers that it wasn't the single serving bag they sell by the register lol. It'll probably be gone by the weekend...
Re: RTT
Yes, yes there is something wrong, you're an asshole. That's what's wrong.
