How Much Bigger?!

[Full of Hope]

Hi Ladies,
I am 27+3 and am now definately feeling pregnant. Saw MW yesterday and little man is head down.. I've been told to expect to gain 1lb a week but i'm just wondering what impact that will actually have on my bump?

How much bigger did you ladies get from 27-40 weeks and have you got any pictures?

I'll hang around here mum said "you'll double by June 16th (my baby shower) and then you'll double again"

 

[Full of Hope]

haha oh nooo! My baby shower is July 13th, I'm hoping to do a belly cast but going off what you say i'm afraid there won't be enough to go round my evergrowing whale belly!

Eeeeek..

With my first pregnancy, I wasnt very big at the end at all, maybe about 5 months pregnant looking!! I could still rush about and never felt heavy at all but this time round I was showing from 4 months and got bigger and bigger and bigger since then I can barely move one leg infront of another!! My mum still likes to scare me and tell me that I could get even bigger even now!! Everyone is different, dont worry, you can only stretch so much The joys of pregnancy!!

I felt huge at 25 weeks... Now I look back at photos I was tiny compared to now...

I haven't gained a
Pound a week... I've only gained 6 pounds or so this whole pregnancy but my bump has grown heaps... I will upload pics if I can find em

I suppose everyone is different, my baby is measuring big already too so i'm worried he'll be a giant. Been told he has long legs and as he's only gonna get meatier in the next 12 weeks im afraid i'll physically pop in 3 months time

Good luck ladies!

I couldnt imagine being any bigger than that I am already! People already keep asking me when i'm due and saying 'surely it cant be long now'.... ya thanks!

 

[Full of Hope]

I know right! I feel like i've been answering that question forever, and i'm sure people expect me to say 5 weeks when they ask me how longs left as they all seem as fed up about it as i am when i say 13 lol

 

[suffolksazzle]

LOL same here! I mean really, do I look THAT big like im about to pop?!

Excuse the lack of makeup!

 

[Full of Hope]

No I think you look lovely!! You have a perfect bump and I still think theres room for growth haha

How long do you have left?

 

[suffolksazzle]

13/14 weeks left, same as you
More growth is scary lol x

 

[Full of Hope]

lol tell me about it! people already have bets on my little boy being over 8lb 5, i'm dreading what people will think by August haha x

 

[suffolksazzle]

It this your first? Whens your due date?
This is my first and im due on the 14th August

 

[Full of Hope]

Yeah this is my first, my due date is 5th August! Considering we knew i was pregnant in November, it feels like its lasting a lifetime lol
How are you finding it and do you know what you're having?

 

[suffolksazzle]

Its weird as it seems that ive been pregnant for ever but its going really quick... if that makes sense?!

Im finding it a breeze to be honest! No physical sickness, just the odd nausea days from 6 to 10 weeks but nothing since then. You?

We are team yellow but everyone thinks my scan looks like a boy You? x

 

[Full of Hope]

Aaah i looked at your scan and thought boy too. We are blue team! I couldn't wait to find out lol

Yeahh it makes sense, I suppose because it seems like it's lasted forever I think the next 13 weeks will drag out. I'm not prepared in the slightest and it'll probably come round before I know it sending me into a panic lol

Yeah first 3 months were rough, in total i've had 7 scans, 3 bleeds and alot of nausea but no physcial sickness so thats a bonus! Been feeling gret the last 8 weeks though, no complaints!

 

[suffolksazzle]

Yay for team blue, i'm hoping we too are team blue but obviously i wouldnt be dissapointed if we turned out to be team pink!

Oh you poor thing having a rough time, glad your feeling good now though!
