Welcome Mrs Cookie!!!
do any of you ladies dare to share some bump pics yet???
i will when im 15 weeks when i have a reason to look so big

21 weeks
24 weeks
and 30 weeks.

WOW, what a beautiful bump .. did you have a B bump?? if so when did you D bump start forming?? just curious

 

[destynibaby]

Thank you. yes i have the dreaded B belly, it hasnt fully rounded out to a D and at 31 weeks im not sure if it will.
I have on a belly band in the pics. rounds me out nicely!

 

[sethsmummy]

I hate my B bump... lol just makes me look even fatter. I Can't wait to have a bump like yours, it's fantastic! x

 

[ChezTunes]

I guess I had a constant B-bump with DD (sort of an "apron" under my bump, if that makes sense) so I'm not too hopeful about a D-bump this time I grew to love my bump though, I miss it and cannot wait for this one!

 

[destynibaby]

at this point, everyone can tell im pregnant and not just fatter. i was really hoping for a nice D, cause i really wanted to take some bare belly maternity photos. I will say it has filled out some but not much, i got a few more weeks left though.. might be SOME hope lol

Ok, first timer here... What is a B bump and a D bump? The only thing I can think of is the letters are like a profile of the shape of the belly bump. Am I way off base here thinking that?

 

[WholeHeart]

So far as I know, you've got it right on.

Did this thread get moved?

 

[ChezTunes]

Yeah, it's the shape of a bump. D shape is a nice round bump, and I guess you can gather what a B is...

Hey sparkle! I'm doing good also Same as you all my symptoms have gone away so no more really sore boobies or bad morning sicknesss

Good luck for your Scan, its so good that your other half can be there with you! I think its such a special moment for both mum and dad.

My BMI is about 44? I think... there has been nothing mentioned about it yet but I know when i go see my consultant at the end of the month he will mention it. But He'll just be told I know all the extra risks of being a big momma, but my sister is bigger than me and had no complications apart from her GD which she'd had since her previous pregnancy.

Only thing mentioned to me is the GD test at about 28 weeks, but any1 with high bmi or diabeties in the family is tested for that. And i past it with flying colours with my first born x

Hi Realbeauty! I am 8 weeks right now.

Also, when all you ladies were talking about your doctor's giving you a hard time for your weight I do have to say that when I met my doctor for the first time last week I was pleasantly surprised to see that she weighed more than me, so hopefully she won't give me too hard of a time Good luck to all you with those skinny little docs.

Hi guys...just found this thread. I am officially OBESE again as of my last check up (I had lost a LOT of weight 4 years ago) Since the baby I packed on 22 pounds, so far. When my dr gets on me about my weight I remind her that this is still 'skinny' for me! (215) it really is. I used to be SMO (super morbidly obese). Anyway was happy to find this thread. I am trying not to let getting weighed at the dr get me down.

Hey hun

Go you on the weight loss! And stuff the doctors! When i go to my next appointment i will be refusing to be weighed if they ask. My original weigh in was done on my home scales, therefore I will do my weight myself at home on the morning of the appointment. How is your pregnancy going x

 

[Sparklegirl]

So far it's going really good Some bleeding at ten weeks, smooth sailing since then (Except for leg cramps and sciatica starting last week) We tried so long (over 2 years) and I'm 37, just so happy to be pregnant. It finally feels real to me. We started picking out baby stuff So fun.

As for the scale at the dr, good idea. I let them weigh me but I truly do not care what it says. They can say what they like...I'm fine with my weight. My BMI used to be 76!!!! At this time it's 33. Whoop ti do. Don't care. My dr weighs like 120 pounds. She has NO idea.

Some kind of bug is going around here too guys, or else seasonal allergies are kicking in. Runny nose and my head feels weird this morning.
