where are you gaining weight?

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?

  • My thighs and my hips sadly. Wish I could of gotten some in my butt because it is as flat as can be lol. even without pants on I have a muffin top. Hope it goes away after DS is born or working out will make it go away!

  • It's all belly and I'm so happy about that. With DD1 I looked like an over filled balloon by the end, swollen from face to toes.
  • 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

  • Mine's all in my boobs and belly. I think it makes me look disproportional- I have little t-rex arms and then this big baby belly.

  • Boobs and thighs here! Luckily the weights stayed away from anythign else but I had a big butt to begin with x.x;; I'm hoping the boobs are here to stay but after noticing several stretch marks on my thighs I'm very over the thigh fat. Really sends it home that my non maternity jeans don't even fit past my knees anymore.

  • At first I gained some in my boobs...but at a certain point that stopped. From then on it went all to belly, butt and thighs!!!!! I think my face got a little rounder but it's not quite as noticable to me as the bottom half of my body is LoL

  • Boobs and belly.  I WISH I would gain in my chicken legs and butt (it is soooo flat), no such luck.  I have a LOT of belly.

  • The majority of my 30 extra pounds has gone to Boobs and Belly!  I'm still wearing  my pre-pregnancy pants with a belly band, although they are now starting to get a little more snug in the hip and thigh area.  My boobs are just out of control... have gone up probably 3 cup sizes.  I don't really get it though because I've gained right around 30 pounds.

  • 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!".  :)

  • Freaking everywhere it seems like!  I've only gained 16lbs so far, but I feel huge!
  • Boobs and belly. I've gone from a nice C cup to an almost over-flowing D cup. I also get the wonderful comments of, "Oh, twins?" "You could go any minute!!" and my personal favorite, "Oh you're huge!". Confused

  • Everywhere! Face, flanks, boobs, arms, legs, and my belly,as of last week finally looks like a pregnant women instead of just "freshman in college chub":) I don't really understand it....I haven't gained that much weight and I exercise like crazy. I guess I am just one of those women who looks horrible pregnant! I looked horrible my last pregnancy too. I thought it was just because I gained so much weight. Guess not! At least I know I can bounce back.....

  • 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!  

  • For me it's mostly belly (which looks like a basketball these days..), but also my butt/hips & boobs.

  • 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.

  • Belly and boobs. My boobs are hugeee.... from 36C to 40D! Can't wait to see how big they will get after I start breastfeeding! That should be interesting!

  • Just my stomach really. However, my hips and boobs were huge to begin with, so I didn't need invest much more there anyway!

  • Belly and boobs. I've actually lost fat on my face and arms.

  • 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!

  • It started out just in my belly but now it's moved to my thighs and butt :(

  • Boobs and belly, my guy's convinced that I'm going to choke our daughter when nursing, lol.

  • I thought I was all belly until my 19 year old (boy) cousin called me chipmunk cheeks. NOT funny. Angry

    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.

  • Everyone keeps telling me that I'm all baby at this point.  My face does appear the same but I do have some puffiness in my hands and feet that started this week.  I think my hips are gaining a little weight, which is odd because I don't have much in that area any way.
  • I've gained 30  and it has been mostly belly & boobs. My boobs have gone up 3 sizes, it is crazy. Everyone says I'm all belly but I'm starting to swell more and more and I feel like I've gained weight in my face, neck, chest, belly, thighs, calves, toes.. haha, everywhere. I just "feel" bigger.

  • honestly i am all bump. maybe a little in the boobs but i look exactly the same other than the bump. i am counting my blessings.

  • All belly. I'm told I don't look pregnant at all from the back. My boobs got a tad bit bigger in early pregnancy, but not by much (IMO).

  • Some boobs (they did most of their growing the first time around though), otherwise almost all belly.  I've only gained 10 pounds or so and DS is measuring normal to slightly large, so if anything it's coming off other places.  (Don't get too jealous - pregnancy is about the only time I have an easy time managing my weight!)

  • Face, neck, upper arms and hips are the areas that are the most noticeable on me.  I'm sure other places have expanded but I'm trying not to focus to much on this lol.  My goal is to loose most of this baby weight after this LO. We arent planning on anymore little ones and so I'm savoring these extra pounds for the next 5 weeks or so weeks Smile

  • Belly, hips, thighs, calves and face.  I was hoping that my boobs would get bigger but unfortunately I've only went from a 34a to a 36b.

  • Only my Belly thankfully. For now lol. My boobs haven't changed size yet what so ever either. 15 lbs up

  • Mine is mostly in my belly, but I've noticed (since first pg) that I tend to gain a little in my thighs, my boobs and a little under my chin.

  • I am mostly belly, but my thighs are definitely bigger than before. They are up about 2 inches. I was horrified by the sight of them when I had to sit next to a skinny coworker in an auditorium this week. Thunder thighs!
