watching dancing with the stars about in tears because my body used to be so nice, then I had my…

I've been feeling the same way :(

@emkasting, I'm so big and I'm only 15 weeks. I have such a long ways to go I'm so nervous.

Well I will tell you this, as long as your doctor isn't telling you to watch your weight or that your baby is measuring large you shouldn't be too concerned. But I used to feel like I looked so small and people would tell me I looked great but now everyone says whoa you must be popping soon when they see me, and I have 8 weeks left :(. What's extra discouraging is that I have been using stretch mark lotions and bio oil my whole pregnancy before even showing and just recently I noticed a couple small ones but now they're like spidering out on the bottom of the bump. It is making me crazy 😞

I gained 80# with my pregnancy, was 150 starting out, almost 6 feet tall tho. I've never had a gut before but have this pouch now, it's the worst. very self conscious about all the extra weight everywhere.. enjoy having the excuse of being a little "fluffier" :)

I'm feeling more emotional about baby weight this pregnancy than I ever did before. I think it's because I'm older now and was bigger to begin with. my body and looks have always been very important to me so I'm really freaking out about getting fat. that sounds really shallow lol, but I just want to be the best me I can be I guess. so I know how you're feeling. it's stressful!
