Answer

Me to!!! I just keep trying to tell myself this is literally the only time since I was 16 that I haven’t been counting calories and to just enjoy it. I’ll put the work in after to lose it. Some days that helps lol I think I’ll feel better once I get real pop in my tummy (it’s starting)!

Answer

I’m almost 13 weeks and I keep losing weight. It stresses me out because I cannot eat or drink enough because of these colds back to back. 
Don’t worry about you gaining weight sweetie. Just stay active and eat the best you can. It’s all worth it in the end.

Answer

My first pregnancy I got SO many stretch marks in my first 9 weeks I miscarried and I hated the way I looked. It wasn’t til I got pregnant again that I was like damn I only look this way because I’m carrying life

Answer

I’ve been fairly insecure about my look and weight and pregnancy has added on to it. I’ve never had stretch marks before but I have them in my thighs and boobs now. I feel too chubby and I’m 17w4d. I’m scared to gain weight, I haven’t checked my weight yet. I love being pregnant and growing a baby, but I’m scared to look different. You’re not alone, and it sucks feeling this way bc we’re bringing a new beautiful life into the world 🙁

Answer

You are certainly not the only one.  I’ve been doing a lot of reading on the importance to why we need to gain weight. It has helped me cope and understand how the weight is distributed. It makes me feel sooo much better doing the research on it.  I’m still trying to keep my weight in the 25-30lb range but it helps me find some peace every time the scale goes up.
