what is your #1 vain pregnancy worry???

Leanie · December 2008

No pun intended, but my number one worry that is so vain is getting varicose veins/spider veins when pregnant. I have every intention of getting "rid" of them after baby number two, but they seriously bother me a lot since we have a strong family case of them. Yuck.

What is your number 1 worry??

thenewmrsrussell · December 2008

Being completely overweight and unhealthy after the baby is born. I realize that I have some control over this and that thing's wont be exactly the way they were before but still...it's a worry.

choltbaby · December 2008

My worry is that I will blow up and look like a hippopotamus:( I haven't gained any weight yet, but my friend gained eighty pounds in her second and third trimester. I am still waiting on it to sneak up on me!

YAY! Baby K · December 2008

To go into labor extremly early.

sherthebear · December 2008

gaining too much weight and not being able to get back to my pre-preg weight. I know I have control over what I eat and exercise. But I am afraid I won't have the time to workout like I used to when the baby comes.

nerdsbride · December 2008

Stretch marks. Ew. I have never really had them...I would rather gain a ton of weight and have to work really hard to get it off. What do you do about stretch marks? Nothing. Sad

CeltiCutie · December 2008

having trouble loosing weight/getting back into shape after child... I'm afraid i'll have the "mom pouch." *shudders*

ToBeMrsC6907 · December 2008

Stretch marks. Loss of muscle tone. Extra skin in abdominal area.

sju · December 2008

Stretchmarks above my belly button. The skin below the belly button already looks ugly thanks to DS.

Jason'swife · December 2008

I have a couple worries. Varicose veins is definitely one of them. So is just being generally overweight and unhealthy. I really miss going to the gym 4 or 5 days a week, but my back has been WAY to screwed up to continue that routine. Hopefully I can pick it up again after baby is born. Oh, and I'd really like my boobs to NOT hang down to my belly button after bf'ing.

Like most, stretch marks and excess weight gain. I am doing fine w/ the weight and no stretch marks so far, thankfully. I get anxious thinking about being miserably hot this summer with a young baby, back to work full time, trying to lose the weight and being uncomfortable with nothing cute that fits. Ugh.

smismar · December 2008

I don't worry about loose skin and stretch marks. I had those before I ever got pg! I worry about loss of bladder control. That the Kegels I do aren't enough or won't work and I'm going to spend the rest of my life wetting myself.

grinsandgiggles · December 2008

That I will go into labor early or that the baby will have something wrong with him/her...I want a healthy baby. (I also fear that I will get stretch marks too lol)

*Ooops, didn't see the vain part...Well, I fear stretch marks on my belly. I want to be able to wear a two piece after baby.

YAY! Baby K:
To go into labor extremly early.

That's not vain!

My biggest worry is gaining too much weight again. I gained 50 pounds with #1 and want SO badly NOT to let that happen again. Since the weight did not just drop off, I don't expect it to this time so I'd like to have a lot less to lose.

littlecorazon · December 2008

I have a couple. Streght marks and not being able to get rid of extra skin.

Sonya Flanagan · December 2008

stretch marks and veins

AshDoc · December 2008

Not being able to lose the weight like I did the last time. I only gained 32lbs and my belly was really flat when I left the hospital. I was back in pre-pregnancy jeans the day I got home. I really don't want to keep all that weight in my mid section this time either!

Mitzie · December 2008

me too on fear of the mom pouch. I've always had a flat belly and a small wasit to balance out the fact that I have a big butt and chest. If I lose that then I'm just round....

Wow...I hope I have that kind of luck. I'm thinking I may have a pretty decent time with it, my mom had 5 girls (over the course of years - 2 marriages)...but she always looked thin. My niece (who is older than me) had her son and came home being smaller than she was pre-pregnancy. Don't know how that happened, but give me what she got!

jaredswife · December 2008

stretch marks

I didnt get any when I was pg with DS and I am getting bigger much faster this time. So I am dreading the possibility.

GeminA1 · December 2008

too gain too much/not be able to lose it and for my boobs to be completely horrible and saggy! I already let DH know (so he doesn't try to talk me out of it later) that once we are done havnig kids I am getting my breasts lifted back to where they belong!!!

cprn · December 2008

I am more worried about leaking milk all over after the baby comes. Haven't heard any tips on how to deal with this yet.

rcp126 · December 2008

Not being able to return to my pre pregnancy weight.

Emilyd422 · December 2008

Not seeing my feet due to gaining too much weight.

mumolemondrop · December 2008

Having my vagina ripped to bits and never being able to have good sex again. Weird I know.

meandg · December 2008

Saggy droppy breasts.....after breast feeding.

Cander · December 2008

stretchmarks!

kimsy · December 2008

Another weight vote here. I lost 35 pounds two years ago and have been on a low-carb/exercise 5 days a week plan ever since, and the combination of all the carbs I have been eating (because that is all I can stomach) and the fact that I am on pelvic rest (so no exercise) have my weight creeping up above what is advised. I worry that I'll have to start all over again. But it'll be worth it.

LyndsRae · December 2008

worried my boobies will look like flat pancakes after breast feeding.

jessiesue · December 2008

Definitely stretch marks and loose belly skin...oh and my belly button looking all stretched out!

Shacora · December 2008

BIGGER FEET... I went from a comfortable 8.5 to a 11 while pregnant.. After DS was born feet only went back to a 10.... There are no cute shoes in a size 10. If this happens this time.. What size will I wear? I will have to wear clown shoes for real...

Sara Mendez · December 2008

My biggest fear is that I will gain too much weight during my pregnancy and I won't be able to lose it all after our beautiful baby boy is born.

bchlvnmom09 · December 2008

This is my first and before I found out I was expecting, I didnt want kids because I was afraid my va-jay-jay wouldnt be the same...you know...it wont be tight as it has been... Tongue Tied

persala · December 2008

Still looking pregnant after the baby's been born. I will be so embarassed if I'm asked when I'm due after I've already had the baby.
