I'm huge, huge, huge (rantish)

I'll be nine weeks along tomorrow, and I already feel huge. My clothes
barely fit. At this rate I'll be in those hideous jeans with the pouch
by October. Bah!

I grew much quicker the second time around, too.

Third time round for me now, and it's like my belly muscles metaphorically
threw their hands in the air and said 'sod this' - and gave up the ghost
totally right from the start. I was in preggie jeans by week 10. Now with 10
days to go, it almost seems like the last 6 weeks or so has seen barely any
increase in size, just 'solidity' to my bump, iykwim. My back hasn't ached
this time around though, so that's a blessing :-) Wish I could say the same
for the creaky old pelvis though - it's getting very achy and painful now...

Sigh... I wanted to keep it a secret for a while, but it looks like I'll
be telling people pretty soon.

That's what happened with me the first time. I was thin, then suddenly
pregnant, then suddenly more pregnant and stayed that way. (Partly that
was because he was transverse and his growth didn't show.)

I had a lady make a remark to me the other day. (A regular to our
family-owned restaurant.) "Wow, you're getting pretty big already!"
Ahem. Geez I'm only halfway along, 22 weeks or so. Thanks lady. You're
kinda chubby yourself. But I just smiled and said with each pregnancy I
gain 65 to 70 lbs, I'm ok with that, and (so far) it all comes off. I
heard gossip last time that a local lady didn't think that my pregnancy
weight would ever come off. Talk about motivation!

I had a neighbour ask me if I had my baby the other day. That was sad... ;-)

That is so mean. You should have asked her how far along is she.

If this is your second, don't be alarmed, I'm told this is normal... I am 6
months pregnant with my second, and at 8 weeks, I took my first shopping
trip to Motherhood Maternity because nothing fit. I recently had round 2
shopping because I have since grown out of my first maternity clothes. Yes,
I feel huge. But I haven't gained all that much, about 20 lbs. It is
ALLLLL in the belly and boobs! I measured my thigh/hips/upper arm
circumfrence and was happy to discover I am still very near my pre-pregnancy
measurements in these areas.

Go with the flow!
