Pregnant after a Loss

I feel like a bad person...

I am totally doing the exact opposite of what I said I would do when I was pregnant...obsessing about my weight gain. ?I am terrified I will never get back down to where I was - esp if I have to have a c/s. ?I am so mad at myself because I promised I would never do this - I'd just enjoy the pregnancy and what went with. ?Instead I can't stop facebooking pictures of myself and comparing how fat my face looks now and how it didn't in 8 months ago. ?Someone slap me please. ?

    I know how you feel, it's hard to be adding on the pounds so fast when you're so used to your old body. But the baby will be worth it, and with hard work, you will get back to your old size!

  • Really, if you were in good shape prior to getting pregnant it will fall off of you. I had about 20 pounds to lose prior to getting pregnant with my dd and 3 months pp I was 10 pounds lighter than my prepregnancy weight. I have to say I attribute it all to breastfeeding though. That helps tremendously!
  • Thanks for the reassurance...I think I just need to get over it and move on!

    ?One of the many reasons I am hoping to BF!?

  • I'm with you on this one.  It's honestly harder than I thought it would be.  I thought I'd be so thrilled to be pregnant I wouldn't care.  Of course I'm so happy to be pregnant, but I still cringe at my butt and thighs.  I look at my size 0's and wonder if I'll ever get back into them.  I'm already planning my diet and exercise routine after he's born!
