Small Frame Ladies:Did you go early?

[luv2lift]

Just wondering how many ladies that are built small went early in their pregnancies?

I'll start my DS was 2 weeks early and I'm 4'11 and pre-prego weight was 97lbs

Im not short...but i was reeeally tiny/skinny frame when I got pregnant...by 37 weeks I was literally going to burst...here's me at 31 weeks, my ribs had already expanded but it was KILLING me....

I'm 5ft 1, usually a size 10 and I went the full 2 weeks overdue with my son before being induced.

Wow looks like you were going to burst! (I mean that in a nice way )

At almost 37 weeks My bump still looks smaller than your 31 week pic

I wasnt too fond of my 'beach ball' as my fiance lovingly put it

Oh and Abigail came out a very average 7lbs5oz!! Wouldnt have thought it by the size of me!!

i have always had a small frame, my bump doesnt even look half the size of the above pics... doc's have told me im measuring small and that i will have a small baby (they said baby is fine and that its just cos im small frame) and at my app last week i was told that i will deliver early, very early, so they gave baby steriod injections for his lungs, not sure if it has anything to do with my build or not.... i am 2/5 engaged at the mo and was told to be ready to go to hospital cos baby will be making an appearance soon (hopefully he will stay put for another couple of weeks to get stronger as he is only small)

i'm not all that short. 5'4" but weighed 115lbs prepregnancy and a size us 0. i am very active and on my feet at work non stop. granted with my last son it was the same exact way. my water broke at 38+6 after working a long shift. labor was very quick. water broke at 330am. thought i wet the bed. by about 5am i was crawling out of the tub in full blown labor. had my baby in my arms by 730am. must have been in labor at work and didn't know it or it was THAT fast. lol i was 21 then. i will be 30 on friday. and almost 9yrs later, i just have a feeling i won't go that long. i want to make it to at least 37wks and baby is fully cooked and healthy! anytime after that, come on baby! with my oldest son (this is my 3rd) i was induced at 39wks due to severe preeclampsia and strep in my blood. i had gained so much weight that time and was only 18. just goes to show though that just because you have preeclampsia once doesn't mean you will necessarily have it again!

I was sooo lucky I got hardly anything on my bump...even though my skin was stretched to the limit (cant recommend cocoa butter enough!) but as you can see from the 31 week to the 37 one, my bellybutton piercing hole did create a stretchie....still pretty lucky escape though!

Im 5'3 usually size 8, I went 8 days overdue with my daughter. I don't think it makes a difference, you just start to look a bit ridic towards the end xx
