Yeah why do we put weight on our arms, jeez.
I aint to happy about my new pair of bingo wings lol.
..arms really seem an odd place to me.

I gained around my tighs aswell, but mostly it feels like the whole legs have gotten heavier. I had to up half a shoe size since 15Wks because my shoes didnt fit anymore and then i couldn't fit my boots around my calves. When I sit down it looks like I got cellulite in my calves as well as my thighs. I have some hope though that it also comes from water retention, since fat normally goes around my bum and hips and they still look OK-ish.

Dont even get me started on bingo wings...

I've never been thin but my thighs and ass have taken the brunt of this weight gain, I'd lost so much and was the lightest I'd been in years before this bundle of joy! No stretch marks, not new ones anyway... but cellulite gallore!! LOL, I don't mind too much... She's so worth it!

I want to fit into my size 8 jeans!!!

Pretty similar situation. My thighs have never been thin but I have long legs, and really, they're my only nice feature that I used to be happy about but now there's cellulite all down the back and they look like chicken drumsticks (big fat blob at the top and thin at the bottom)

But I'm a runner too so I'm gonna work them hard once baby's here. Glad its only my thighs as they get into shape very fast once I start running regularly. I dread to think if it was my hips or back - that takes me FOREVER.

Other than LO's arrival, running and getting my legs back and that cellulite off is the thing I am most looking forward and almost counting the days down to.

My thighs aren't bigger really, but they do have more cellulite :[

It's pretty common to gain weight in the hips/thigh area during pregnancy. Apparently that's your body's way of creating fat stores that are easy to access to support breastfeeding.

My thighs have definitely gotten thicker. I've always had bigger thighs than I would like, but they were just muscular/athletic. I've been able to stay active this pregnancy, but my thighs have definitely gone a bit softer..

Thank god I'm not the only one! I used to run before but haven't run in about 9 months and my thighs are touching and huge and have cellulite! I live in Hawaii and it's super humid so my thighs stick together. Yuck! Can't wait to start running again and get rid of my "thunder thighs"!

 

[Mommy2be20]

Oh phew! I'm so glad I'm not alone someone made a comment to me the other day, the typical "aww, you're all baby!" and I replied with "yup, I think my legs are having babies too though!" I've always had thicker thighs from dancing when I was younger, but they've gotten even bigger... yum, can't wait to walk more and lose the extra! x

 

[babyblog]

Yep me! They did this last time too- I am so envious of the preggos I see with skinny legs! My mum says they are growing to accommodate the extra weight of my bump x

 

[NicolaWynne]

Yep its so annoying, im praying its water retention lol x

My mother's just told me I have elephant thighs.

A bloke in work made a comment about mine before i went on maternity leave.. i wanted to chuck a chair at his stupid bald head!

 

[LilianA]

it happens to me everytime and I can't wait to get the weight off after baby arrives ..I tried on a pair of my fat jeans and they were tight on my thighs and butt!! I just hope that some of it is water retention but I have a feeling not

I honestly don't know why you didn't?!

I have allways been tiny but my thighs are now wobbly, jiggly and lumpy (anything with a "y" on the end of it!) my bum is a mess, its wider and covered in cellulite but at least its still perky lol! Im taking comfort in the few ladies that have said it goes back after pregnancy, i havent been active at all during pregnancy so i plan on running a marathon and doing squats constantly once LO is born!

 

[BunNtheOven]

one thing for sure, i can not wait to get my body back! i have cellulite (like 15 little dimples on my thigh!!!), i'm alot wider and got more love handles ( i had SOME love handle pre pregnancy but nothing to complain about..looked normal). .. its. driving. me. nuts.
But i work with a girl who has had 5 children. She told me each time her body went back to normal and with her first two she actually went smaller than she was pre pregnancy. So thats helped me out to feel better.

 

[missvikki]

Mine are the same, I hate it
I can't wait to exercise again!!!
