Is this the worst trimester?

squishees · July 2019

Omg I feel so fat! I’m exhausted and starving but a lot of food is grossing me out. Not having energy is making me depressed and I’m super irritable. Will this go away? I don’t know if I will be able to stand myself like this for the next 8 months lol
i feel like I gained 25 pounds already!

You still should find a therapist/counselor to deal with your body image / mental health issues. You're only going to get bigger as the PG goes on, unless you end up losing the child and then you'll be dealing with a whole new slew of problems.

We give support to get support here. I'd really advise you to join in on more of the usual threads, like joining and participating in your BMB, instead of continually creating your own SS DD posts.

I’m sorry I don’t know what those abbreviations mean lol

i didn’t know the rules for posting I wasn’t trying to offend anyone

BMB = Birth Month Board. Go find the month you're due and participate in the threads there with people who are around the same stage that you are.
DD = Dear Diary post. You're not really asking a question, you're just diary posting about how you feel. You don't need a whole special post to yourself for that, you could easily join in a thread already created for symptoms in your BMB.

Basically, you've created 5 posts of your own and only responded to 5 discussions (all but ONE being your own threads!?!?). You are just talking about your weight and body image issues and your symptoms, and it would be better for you to join in on the BMB where other women are already discussing these things. But more importantly, it would be nice if you tried to find out more about the other women on this COMMUNITY rather than just posting your own threads for attention. If you WANT support from others, GIVE some of it first. Other women are dealing with similar issues that you could respond about. Other women are dealing with hell and back problems that you could support. Other women may have questions you could answer. But you just keep posting about how fat you feel with your precious rainbow baby that many on these boards would give ANYTHING to have... I had rainbow babies too, and they all died. And I'm fat because I have serious depression/anxiety/PTSD, and god knows what else. And I have body image issues too because I have to explain to people how PG and MC have f-ed up my body, even though I have NO living babies to show for it. I'm in counselling, and honestly, I AGAIN seriously suggest you try it to. It helps, it really helps.

Nope it won't go away. You'll feel like this forever.

Selfishly responding... as long as I don't have to read more posts about how fat she is because she's actually PG with her rainbow baby that she'll probably get to have, whereas I'm fat from 5 MC in the past 3 years and severe depression/anxiety from it... y'all can enjoy that and deal with it!!! Although, I'm feeling optimistic so MAYBE she'll take the advice and join in and be a helpful, great community member!!!!

@dpchickens girl, fair enough!

Also, for the record, most women I’ve known thought third tri was way worse.

Seriously, you need to calm down, your true colors are showing! Dont be surprised if an admin shuts this down and a warning is given............. All that was said is that you haven't contributed to any discussions and when looking for support or information and she told you the best places to look for information and it's best to become a part of the community than just drop in and ask for info and run.

Unfortunately, 3rd tri is worse: you are as big as a house you feel like you are waddling continually, eating food makes you feel as if you gained 20extra lbs.

Maybe you need to seek counciling or address your issues with your doctor.

Also in 3rd Tri you have the waiting and the “are you still pregnant?!” Questions.
