Any big momma's out there?

[MrsLaw]

did you ladies find you put a lot on during pregnancy? If not, how did you manage it? Help!

I put on 10lbs in total. I was just big before I got pregnant. haha.
I had awful sickness from 5 - 18 weeks and after that I cooked lots of hearty soups and salads and fruits and veggies. I lik stuff like that anyway though. I also walked A LOT. especially towards the end... trying to bring him on. Lazy boy was 11 days late.

I suppose as long as your eating heathily and doing gentle exercise... thats all you can do really.

I was 16.4 stone when fell pregnant and gained 2 1/2 stone which I found was mainly the last 7 weeks (13 days overdue) I started maternity leave and gradually struggled to do the day to day stuff like bending for the dishwasher etc, it was really hot too so spent majority of my time eating three large meals a day with ice Lollys in between to cool me down and soothe my heartburn.

I've promised myself next time to try and stay active and to eat healthier. I remember being hungry continuously and stopped the nausea so Need to be realistic with myself.

Have your eating habits /exercise changed since being pregnant anything you can change or adapt? Your growing a new life don't stress or worry too much about gaining weight

AFM - We have our 20 week scan today, well I'm 21 weeks but couldn't do it on Christmas haha. I'm so excited and have no idea what we're having! Hopefully she/he will be in the right position. I'll report back later xoxo

All ok thanks Bigbetty, you?

Everything's great thank you! I can't believe how much Fran is developing and how quickly now. She's started taking a few steps unaided, knows how to get something off the chair arm thats out of reach by slapping the arm until the item bounces onto the seat then grabs it, starting to learn proper words - my baby is getting so grown up!!!!

Congrats lollibop - most of my clothes I bought for JJ were either next or Mothercare with a few m&s and Asda / sainsburys. 'occasion clothes' were m&s or surprisingly bhs and gap, had some nice dungaree sets in last year. Also FYI I used alot of Muslins (26 initially) as had sicky baby and still come in handy now. I found socks frustrating when young as we're always falling off his feet (and still do now!)

Hope you enjoy all the shopping!
