Where are you gaining weight (other than your belly!)?

So I was looking at my week-by-week photos and I am AMAZED with how my chest and rear look like a plastic blow-up doll. My arms, neck, legs are still the same, but my chest and butt have grown at least 3 sizes (from a size 4 to wanna-wear-my-husbands-sweat-pants sized). I could be the next Kim Kardashian over here.
Tell me, where are you gaining your pregnancy weight?

My chest and thighs also think they're pregnant...
Rub some clear deodorant between your thighs, helps with chaffing and keeps things shower fresh down there
I looked in the mirror this morning and besides my belly my arms have gotten huge!
the girls are ginormous! but I expected it, same thing happened when I was pregnant with DS. my butt on the other hand, has never been one to attract attention, now I'm giving Kim K a run for her money! I didn't gain in my butt at all last time so this is a little different!
I've been exercising 2-3x a week still so the legs and arms aren't too out of control... yet... haha

This! Even before i realized i was pregnant I commented to DH that my boobs were looking pretty good. I should have known, lol. I barely had anything before, so now that i am a D i feel very happy and really wish they would stay.
I may have gained a little bit in my thighs, but I cant really tell. It might just be bloating. I seem to be a different size every day. Also, DH is convinced that my butt has gotten bigger, but all my underwear still fit, so it isnt significantly different. All in all though, i love my pregnant body.

So far it looks like a LOT of my weight has gone to my butt/thighs! Also a bit on my arms and belly/lovehandles. But so far, people find it difficult to see my pregnancy lol it's funny
Can't wait to see my boobs get even bigger! I'm pretty small normally
With DS I gained EVERYWHERE!!!
This time my boobs (normally wouldnt complain but started as a DD so this is scary, altho DH doesnt think so, lol) thighs, and belly!!!

The boobs. I look like I'm carrying a shelf on the front of my body that's going to cause me to tip over (and I keep finding crumbs on them).
It's not attractive in the least to stick 34Gs on a 5'2" body, and I walk around feeling super self-conscious all the time :P.
Uma Thurman and I now share that little roll under the bikini/bra line. Although I think it's disputing it does make me feel good she has it too as Ashe was a lot skinnier than me when we started this process.

Soooo glad to hear that I am not the only one blowing up like a balloon.
On that note, I don't know what to do with the following statements, both received on the same day by two different people:
"You are only 5 months? You are so tiny!"
"You are only 5 months! Wow, you look like you are further along than that!"
For the record, my OB said that both my own and my baby's weight gain is totally on track, even if that means I have already gained 20 pounds... more than I would like but it's all in the front and rear, promise!
