25w 3d and I am HUGE (belly pic within)

[Nerdy]

I have lost some serious weight, but I swear this belly is just getting bigger and bigger... Rightfully so, but still. For 25 weeks and a little bit of change, this is ridiculousness! So amusing, though!

You look fantastic! You are getting closer and closer to that 3 rd trimester, so it shoukd GROW!! Pregnant women comment on how cute my bump is (23 weeks)... Family comment on how BIG l look ... I think I like pregos more at the moment!!

 

[Nerdy]

LOLOL I definitely like the kindness and empathy displayed by fellow preggos.

Oh i feel you! You look wonderful, i feel super massive this time too. Ever since my appetite came back around 18 weeks my bump has gotten huge! I was measuring 2 weeks ahead at 19 weeks but mw tried to reassure me it was because it was my 4th baby (ha!) I naturally make big babies and have never measured ahead this early.

I'm always huge by that point, too, but especially in the last two pregnancies, since everything was already stretched out nicely by my first. Here's my 26 week bump pics from my two boys, if it makes you feel better.

Aww I think your bump looks adorable Nerdy! You look lovely.

Did you lose some weight before you got pregnant? I'm about 30kg lighter than I was with my other pregnancies and I wonder how that'll change how my bump looks, lots of loose baggy skin though.

 

[Nerdy]

Believe it or not, all this weight loss came DURING my pregnancy. I've been the incredible shrinking woman and I haven't changed a thing aside from cutting out soda and being pregnant. Who knew?! First pregnancy I yo yo'd a lot and wound up losing a total of 20lbs and then dropped another 50 AFTER pregnancy before I lost my galbladder, which made me gain it all back and a bit more.

I'm pretty determined to keep this all off and continue with the weight loss after.

LOVE those 26 week bumps. We're so in the same ball park when it comes to big babies, LOL!

The funny thing is, my babies have actually been pretty small! (My biggest was 6lbs 11oz, the others were 5lbs 10oz and 5lbs 7oz!) But I did go early with two of them and the other had IUGR. It makes me wonder how big my babies would get if they stayed in until 40 weeks!

Was your first a big baby?

 

[Nerdy]

They'd have likely been MASSIVE!!!

My son was born at 39 weeks weighing 10lbs 3oz... I can't even imagine one bigger and they're thinking this boy will be bigger.

Holy cow! Your baby weighed almost twice as much as my smallest! Well no wonder your tummy is popping out so much. Your baby's trying to set a world record!

 

[Qmama79]

Spiffynoodles: your bumps look identical! You carry forward, like myself. Beautiful!

Cutting out pop will definitely do it! I didn't believe anyone when they said that cutting pop from your diet will help you lose weight, and then I found out I was pregnant and stopped drinking it. Lost 15 pounds in the beginning!

 

[Nerdy]

Oh please no world records, LOL! 10lbs 3oz was plenty big enough! Immediately went into size 1 diapers and none of our newborn stuff fit. He was precious, though. No one believed he was a newborn when we went out LOL!

Holy cow is it ever true about pop! That stuff is HORRIBLE for you! If I treat myself to a can of it, I feel absolutely awful. I'll stick to tea and juice and water from now on.

My son was only 6lbs 12oz except he was born almost 2 weeks late! (very solid dates too) I can't imagine how tiny he would have been if he had come early... How early were yours?

I'm trying my hardest to cut it back out again...once I started craving mountain dew, oh my gosh, I would get shakey and my mood would go to really mean if I didn't get mountain dew. It's awful what cravings will do to you!! I'm trying my hardest to switch to water or gatorade!
