It's all exciting but I'm glad this is my last pregnancy!
Yes I feel bigger too! I look and feel bloated. I'm so early on but still wish I just had a big belly already haha! Currently snuggled on the couch with my 4 year old as well.
I can't wait for my first appointment as well..two weeks.
Yeah I'm the same :( do you not feel a lot bigger this time than with your last? I just want a bump so I look pregnant and not just like iv eaten too many pies!!! :( lol! I am soo tired...currently lying on the sofa after a day trip with my son I'm exhausted! I just want my scan too so I know everything is ok....first midwife appointment Thursday I'm guessing my scans around d 4 weeks away
...then again I have ZERO enegery right now to do anything. So exercise is a challenge for me. All I want to do is sleep
I agree Charlotte31! Its hard to see your body cha he so drastically (even though its for a wonderful reason) I stressed so much my first pregnancy and felt so unattractive. IM pretty sure I annoyed my husband daily with "do I look fat" comments.
During this pregnancy I just really want to embrace my changing body, BUT still stay healthy and active. I've already gained a couple pinds but I also found d out in was pregnant after being on a two week vacation at the beach, so I have a head start on weight gain :(
I feel exactly the same! :( my son is 4 and I'm 8 weeks on Thursday either my second and feel huge! The scales say I have put 4 lbs already even though I havnt eaten any differently? I lost quite a lot of weight after my son for my wedding in December and I'm not looking forward to it coming back on again :( it's depressing me seeing my body change already! I know it will all be worth it but at the moment I just can't see past the weight gain x
Thanks everyone!! I'm definitely going to incorporate some exercise into my daily routine, eat healthy and most of all...not stress! Xo
I am currently pregnant with my second child I was over weight when I conceived 219lb and that was a result of my last pregnancy. I am happy to say that I am currently 32weeks pregnant and I am 226lb. Its not too much weight gain but my baby is getting all the nutrition she needs. Every pregnancy is different and I suggest you eat 3 small meals a day with 2 snacks in between. That has really healped me out.
I felt the same way when i found out i was pregnan. Im ovoverweight and im trying not to gain too much. I just try to eat healthy and have some activity thru the day but i still let myself cheat and have some junk here and there just not a lot. Dont stress!
Try to incorporate a daily walk into your schedule. Even thirty minutes a day will help. Also maintain healthy eating habits, lots of fruit, veggie and protien- but don't feel bad if you cheat! And don't beat yourself up about weight gain! You'll be fine:)
I don't keep sweets or junk food in the house, so if I'm hungry I'm forced to grab fruit/yogurt/veggies. Try not to be too hard on yourself though. My doc said that some women gain a lot of weight because it's hormonal. I was worried about gaining a lot with my second one and she said to eat healthy and walk a lot, but there may be nothing I can do about it.
