I just need to complain here. For some lucky reason I get ridicuolously huge when I'm pregnant. Its usually fine until 3rd trimester then I just balloon up. I know alot of it is water weight but I feel so disgusting. I know I'm creating a miracle blah blah blah, I'm totally not being superficial it just feels terrible to be 50 lbs overweight (with 5 weeks to go still) carrying a baby and trying to keep up with a toddler. I wish I could just gain a normal amount. I am certainly not dieting but I am not eating that much or bad either. And my boobs feel like they are literally 5lbs each. This sucks!
Re: Sick of feeling like a cow....
I'm with you! I'm overweight, feeling gross, I know I've still got two months to gain even more, nothing fits right, my preg pants are even getting tight... I sometimes just wanna pick up some moomoos and sit in the dark at home, lmao.
It won't always be like this, but right now I'm just annoyed that even typing this, all I want is some ice cream!
I'm with the both of you! I still have 8 weeks left and the mailman said to me today, "Wow, are you a lot bigger with this pregnancy or what?!" (I have a toddler too...so it wasn't too long ago that I was pregnant before). Great, huh? And to top it all off- I indulged in not one, but two maple donuts today (right before the mailman comment)- so I'm not feeling so great either. Especially since normally (i.e. in my non-prego state) I'm at a normal/healthy weight! Not too much longer....right?
