3rd Trimester

elders: did you/do you notice

whether or not your size really changed between weeks 33 and where you are at now?

Re: elders: did you/do you notice

  • i grew the most during this last month.

  • Ooh! I'm an elder now...

    And YES. I am massively bigger now than I was at 33 weeks.

    I don't know if I'm an "elder", but my husband has commented that my stomach gets bigger on a weekly basis.  I've started to see it as well.
    I HAVE CHILDREN.
  • I don't think I have changed much, but I also am wearing different clothes because of the weather.  At this point I might just be ignoring my expansion.
  • ha ha... hahaha... YES!

    I swear I grow as much in one week (since ~36 weeks) as I used to a month!

    this ... my belly is beginning to hang out from under my shirts

  • With DD, I had to stop wearing pants, skirts and shorts altogether.  I could only wear dresses.  It was exponential growth in the last month!

  • i've only gained about 5 lbs or less since week 33 but my stomach is ginormously (or so i think) bigger... the maternity shirt I wore for my baby shower doesn't even fit anymore although it was a bit tight then... even though my tummy is way bigger i still mostly wear the same clothes as i did then ... here's comparison pics... sorry they are so big

  • I have been fairly small all along. But I finally really grew the last two weeks.

    Me too. I've grown a LOT since 33 weeks. 

  • Mine has definitely gotten bigger and lower!
  • Yep, I grew a bunch between 33 weeks and 38 weeks, but I dropped a bunch in the past week and now I look smaller than I did at 37 weeks but still noticeably bigger than 32-33 weeks.
  • i am guessing you don't want to hear this, but i had a huge change in the last 7 weeks. ?you can see my belly pics in my personal blog.

    my acid reflux got a lot worse too. ?but just remember...7 weeks is really not that long-only feels long because you are pregnant. ?in 7 weeks you will have your little miracle!!?

  • ive noticed (being plus sized) that I look more pregnant now... then I did before.. I dont think I have gained most of my weight my last month... but Ive noticed my belly has gotten more rounder.. and you can now tell where DS's butt or elbow is every now and then
  • I definitely hit a growth spurt

     

  • Totally changed! My OB told me after week 30 they start putting on weight rapidly, up to .5 lbs a week.  So thats a possible 5 lbs of baby btw week 30 and 40!  My bump is way bigger at 37 weeks then it was even at 33 weeks :)

     

  • i guess i'm an elder now...

    my belly's been growing every day, no exaggeration!   

  • This is a pretty scary post, huh? LOL
  • oh my yes! i officially have no shirts that cover my entire belly.

    i pull them down and my bons show if i cover my boobs the bottom of my belly shows. not pretty.

  • I grew the most the last month, but the clothes all still fit!
  • Yes it has grown so much and I agree with kiki-W I have like 2 shirts that still fit so I know I'm much bigger now.

  • Yes.  Wahhh!  I like my big bump (it tells me that it's the baby that's big, not me  -hah)... but only one of my maternity shirts is now long enough to cover the bump.

    I have weekly belly pics in my bio.

  • i don't feel like i look all that much bigger- yet i can no longer wear my fave maternity jeans (semi-demi-panel) that i wore very comfortably up until a week or two ago-  and i have had a lot more 'ready to pop' comments and strangers saying things- so i guess it has :)

  • YES!!!!!  The last month I grew the most. 
  • Yes my belly is bigger and lower so even some of the maternity shirts I started with don't cover it if I lift my arms.
  • Take a look at my bio pics...

    My belly has dropped so much that it hangs out of what ever shirt I wear, weight gain is still surprisingly high.

  • I must be in the minority. I don't think I've changed much. Hmm let me go compare.

    This is 33 weeks. 36 weeks is in sig. I have not changed since 36 weeks. In fact, my fundal measurements stopped going up at 37 weeks. I seemed to have my big growth spurt between 26-30 weeks.
