I'm fat :[

I have always been a size 3-5 in pants and today I went shopping and could only fit into size 7 and 9s except for shorts, even size 9 shorts were too small. And i'm only 15 weeks pregnant, I don't even have a baby bump yet...just my legs are getting huge and my hips and I also get bloated whenever I eat. It's so depressing :[ Before I got pregnant I weighed 115 and could wear size 5 pants and size xs-small shirts and now i'm almost 125 lbs and have to wear medium shirts and size 9 pants. I will be pregnant all through the summer and probably won't even be able to wear shorts, just dresses. I've always been someone who worried a lot about my weight, whenever i'd gain even a pound i'd limit myself to only eating like salad and water for a week, I also used to be anorexic. This is just too much for me, and I feel like I probably will be fat after I have the baby too. My mom was never able to shed her baby weight from me, even 19 years later. I don't wanna pick up that gene :[

    It's hard to see our bodies change so much, but for your baby eat healthy small meals daily and get moderate exercise. Don't obsess bout lbs. I started @122 now I'm 151 still 11 weeks left. My thighs are big my old jeans won't fit over them. For this babe I'd gladly gain 50more then worry bout it in july lol

    Dang, if that's what you consider "fat", I would hate to see what you consider me. I would love to be in the single digit sizes lol!

    I wouldn't worry about it honey. Remember that weight gain is expected, most of all HEALTHY during pregnancy for both you and baby. :)

    Don't tell yourself that hunny. You are not fat just pregnant. That's why they have maternity clothes because its normal that your body changes and I found very cute maternity short when I was prego in summer of 2008

    Thanks. I just don't feel attractive anymore, I used to be skinny and my skin was always clear now I have acne breaking out everywhere and weight being gained on my hips and thighs. I'm worried about summer because I still wanna be able to wear shorts and bathing suits but don't want people to see my nasty cellulite thighs hah

    Lmfao... its hard to feel attractive when ur pregnant.. not for me. I have a wonderful husband who tells me I'm beautiful and gives me whatever I want.. the other day he took me to a special store that only sells pregnancy clothes and told me to get whatever I wanted.. now he even is helping me plan the baby shower and picks me up stuff I'm craving on his way home from work. I've only gained 25 pounds throughout the pregnancy but I still feel like that's a lot. I'm already 34 weeks along and I can't wait to show our daughter what a wonderful father she has. Sry to get off subject I was jus appreciating my wonderful life that someone thinks I dnt seem to have...

    I started this pregnancy at 115 as well I had an appointment yesterday and I am 147 now with 6 weeks left. It makes me a little sad too but I would much rather be experiencing this pregnancy and have a healthy baby then think about all the weight I have gained. Plus my hubby gained too lol, so laughing together about our weight gain makes it easier, he said at least I will have a baby in the end lol. Workout outfits it what I bought to wear before I could fit into maternity clothes. I am sure you look amazing :)

    I knowwww how you feel. I wouldn't say im fat by anymeans but im very self-conscious about the ammount of weight im about to gain. ESP Cuz I model and that buzz is gonna go down the drain as soon as baby is here
  • magcawmagcaw
    aww @ashabash it's not fat, sweetie, it's healthy weight gain for your baby! You are beautiful, even if you don't feel it. And trust me, I was pregnant for the two summers and I will be pregnant for this one as well--you will not feel beautiful in the middle of August. But you will be, because pregnant women are gorgeous. At least, they always make me smile. :) If you're determined to lose the weight once you deliver, you will, but please make sure you do it in a healthy way. Your risk of relapsing will probably be high after you deliver, especially if you suffer from ppd, so keep an eye on yourself.

    Not to be mean but I wish I was at a size 9 I haven't been that small sece I was. Junior in hs, I understand the feeling fat but with my prego hormons felt like u rubben in the fact that u were a 3-5 b4 u got pregnany ur lucky cuz you should beable to get back to that size once ur done giving birth
  • newmommyofonenewmommyofone
    @wiseccourt ... some of the women that call themselves fat and then say they are only a size 9 are jus fishing for compliments. Dnt mind them..
  • IsItFallYetIsItFallYet
    I miss being size 9!
    should realize that if you're calling yourself fat at being a size 9, some ladies that wear higher or are over 125 lbs are just going to feel bad about themselves cause the smaller girl is calling herself fat!
    You've only gained 10 lbs in 15 weeks. Not shabby. I would be glad! Some gain 50-80 lbs. Not insulting that, but compare that to 10 lbs- you shouldnt feel so miserable about it.
    Buck up.
