Maybe it's wishful thinking...(PIP)

in 2nd Trimester

ok so like i've mentioned before. I'm overweight. Always have been. Before I got pregnant I lost a lot of weight (approx 60lbs), most of that weight was in the upper portion of my stomach. Well now, there's a stomach there again. So even tho I still have a very large stomach, it's shaped like a bump (it's never been that shape & never so high up under my breast line) & if the angle is right I could prob pass it as a bump lol (even tho like i've mentioned in other posts, people will see the rest of me & just assume it's cheeseburgers & not baby). I think I just want a bump so bad that i'm looking for one. The only reason it even crossed my mind to take a pic is because a coworker said something yesterday out of the blue about my stomach. Soooo wishful thinking? or is my stomach actually taking some kinda shape even tho I'm fat & carry most of my weight in my tummy anyway? Honest answers plz. Thanks (sorry for quality of pics)

    I always carried all my chub in my belly, and everything has been pushed up and out with me! I say, that looks like a very nice bump!

    When I think "fat" I think rolls or loose flabby skin. That definitely looks more like a round bump!

    Definitely a bump! My neice is a healthy lady and her bump got HUGE.  She's being induced on Sunday because her big guy is a 10 pounder and we can't wait.

    First, congrats on losing 60 lbs! I have always carried all of my weight in my tummy, too. At 17 weeks I definitely had a good size bump. So to answer your question, it's not just wishful thinking. You are definitely seeing a bump. :)

    I know how you feel - all your organs are rising up above your ute and pushing the fat up-up-up.

    About 15 years ago I went from a size 20 to a size 2. I've creeped back up to an 8 before pregnancy  - now i'm wearing an 11-12- (I am mighty short too at 5"2') - so a little goes a long way.  REally not worrring about it till I get a healthy round little bundle of baby. :P
