Babies: 3 - 6 Months

I was reading a post on another board...

And thought about how funny it is that you feel like all your weight gain is in your belly when your pregnant and then you birth your 6-9 lb baby and realize how much bigger your butt, legs, arms, EVERYTHING really is and how much trouble you have loosing it is another topic all in itself! Anyone agree?

  • YES!! I swear it migrated to my butt and thighs after delivery. I could wear some pre-pregnancy pants and just not zip them up and use a bellyband up until I delivered and now I can't wear them at all. :(

  • I AGREE!  You're right, you just don't realize until after how all that weight spread around.  So frustrating!  And I'm 35 so it's really not wanting to come off!!

  • I actually knew my weight gain was in my butt and thighs. I started wearing maternity pants at 13 weeks to fit those areas because I obviously didn't have a belly yet. After I gave birth, the delivery nurse was amazed how small my stomach was. I only have trouble fitting my pre-preg pants because my hips spread from DS's huge head (14.5 inches!).

    I should add that genetics are my reason for having a small upper body and mid-section...I'm definitely a pear shape like my mom!

    this is me exactly! ?my butt, arms and legs got HUGE during pregnancy, and early on as well! ?I'm a pear too! ?I was fully aware of it the whole time!
