it's amazing to me how each woman gains weight in different places during their pregnancies. i am not lucky enough to be one of those women who only gain weight in their boobs and bellies. so far, i've gained weight in my boobs, thighs, upper arms, face, and neck. face and neck is the worst, in my opinion!
Re: where are you gaining weight?
According to others: belly and breasts. I used to be barely an-A. Now I fill out that A cup. Ha
According to me: belly, breasts, and calves. My calves look BIG

All in my arms, butt and thighs. *Sigh*
It's disgusting.
?Little Love of my Life?
thighs, hips, a little in the arms, and lately- my face. My face just looks bloated and pudgy it's awful!
LCT - 5.15.14 ~ 9lbs, 22.5 inches
Ugh - everywhere???
I would say most of the weight is in my belly & thighs though. Same thing with last pregnancy. I can tell in my face though. DH looked at pictures of me from November and was like "You look so..."(and then stopped). I said "What? Thin? Yeah I used to look like that!".
Fastest year of my life.
This time around: boobs, belly, and a bit on the thighs. So far, so good. I've gained 17-20 pounds so far (can't remember!).
With DD: Everywhere possible. Boobs, belly, thighs, hips, bum, neck, face, feet and toes.....just about everywhere you can pack it on, I packed it on lol. By the end I had stretch marks on my hips, bum, boobs, and inner thighs. Suprisingly, I didn't get any on the belly. I gained almost 50 pounds with her.

Boobs, belly, hips, thighs. Its avoided my face and arms, thank goodness, because people don't notice the weight gain as much when it stays off your face.
This is no surprise to me, because I normally gain weight in the hips, butt, and thighs - I'm a pear shape!
Mostly belly and boobs. But just recently noticed my hips look a little wider. My butt seems flatter- that just isn't fair. I was talking recently about "mom jeans" with my mom and she said pancake a** isn't from a style of jeans you wear, its a by-product of pregnancy. I laughed hysterically, but its kinda freaking me out now.
Just my stomach really. However, my hips and boobs were huge to begin with, so I didn't need invest much more there anyway!
I feel like I've gained everywhere but according to friends I am luck bc I am "all belly". I mean the bump has def gotten the majority of the weight but what I think happened is that I have gained a little (in the boobs, butt, hips, face) that only I notice it but apparently no one else can? IDK.
Edit: Oh yes... how could I forget... idk if its weight gain but its def a growth... my feet! up 1.5 sizes!
I thought I was all belly until my 19 year old (boy) cousin called me chipmunk cheeks. NOT funny.
AND DH's Aunt was dead serious asking me if I was sure I wasn't having twins.... yeah, I've had 3 ultrasounds, but thanks. Why is it that some people say I'm tiny and some think I'm having twins. How about just keep your mouth shut. Thanks.
Same here.
Breastfeeding and pregnant!
