Hi ladies

I haven't had a chance to read through all the posts I've miss this last month. Hope you all are well, contests to anyone who have had their babies in my absence and welcome to all the new ladies that have joined.

I am completely in love with my girls but they are hard work and I don't get much time for me.

Just checking in on you really Betty? Exciting times xxx

 

[bigbetty]

Hi all you lovely ladies, I would like to join your club. I m a chunky monkey too with a nice BMI of 33.2. I had just started slimming and lost 10 lbs when I found out I was pregnant (isn't that always the way) anyway and now I am thrilled to say I am 6+1 .
I can't help but healthy eat at the moment as my morning sickness is bad and if I eat anything fattie it really kicks off...ah well. I have also gone right off tea and coffee too.
I have read through the thread and have seen some lovely big bumps and some lovely baby pics too.

Good luck to all you lovely ladies that are about to give birth...and hugs to everybody on the thread.

You couldn't even tell I was pregnant until I hit about 37wks! I dreamt of having a nice bump that looked like a baby, was really fed up of just looking fat.

I still don't have a proper round bump (if you look back a few pages you can see some pics) but it looks more round when covered lol.

How far gone are you love? We all feel differently about our bodies, it's only natural xxx

I'm 28 weeks, and bump is there just this horrific roll of fat on top I was a B shape before I got pregnant but the top bit of the B is just HUGE - baby has moved all the fat to the same place

gah this is hard

love it so much and at the same time hate my body

gah

Yeah that is pretty much what has happened to me lol - although the top of the B hasn't really gotten any bigger, it's just got pushed right up under my boobs. I was praying that it would pop and go round like it does for some women, but I was never that lucky.

I've lost 3 stone since getting pregnant so I think that's partly why it's taken me so long to show.

I'm actually dreading what my body will look like once little one arrives - I've lost so much weight, and had a lot of overhang anyway, so I feel there is going to be a bit of sagging going on

Evening ladies
I was just wondering if anyone else is worried about actually giving birth due to your size? I'm terrified. I was a size 20/22 pre-pregnancy and now more like a 24/26 (now 35+4 weeks), and I carry excess weight all around my thighs and legs. I've also got SPD And am worried about how I might be treated, if there would be problems seeing as my thighs are now quite substantial. I know I'm probably being silly, but feeling really worried, and just wondered if anyone else is worried/in the same position/or can offer any advice?
Thanks

 

[Sevenladybugs]

Freja it shouldn't be an issue during the birth. I had my second child at about that size, and I'm a 22 (US) now. That birth was actually my easiest and no one ever made me feel like it was a problem.

 

[bigbetty]

If your doctor/midwife hasn't said anything then you shouldn't have anything to worry about love. I was a 26/28 when I got pregnant and although I've lost 3 stone since I'm still very much on the bulky side. No-one has said anything to me about having difficutly giving birth.

I haven't got spd but skinny women get that too so if it causes problems it's not weight related.

I hope everything goes ok for you xxx

 

[bigbetty]

Hi Ladies!

Well I'm still here lol!! 6 days overdue and still no twinges yet.

The midwife is coming round at some point today to give me another sweep so keep your fingers crossed it works this time!!!

Have a great day xxx

 

[ladyredlainey]

*fingers crossed Betty!* I can relate so much to going over, I was late 10 days, 6 days & 9 days. But baby will have to be born soon! no matter how comfy she is eh x

 

[Mustang_Love]

Good luck with the sweep Betty. Hopefully this will do the trick!

 

[bigbetty]

If the midwife ever bloody arrives that is grrrrr!!!
