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?
Re: I was reading a post on another board...
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!
