weight gain during pregnancy
The main reason I hate people telling me how "small" I look at 33 weeks is because I am not small compared what I used to be. And obviously you're supposed to gain weight while pregnant, I accepted that long before I gained weight lol. But I don't want to carry on the notion that I look good this way after I have her. I don't want to be comfortable with being out of shape, and I probably won't ever feel comfortable being out of shape since I've always have been a super active person until recently. People get mad at me for not being happy with the way I look right now, and they don't get it. That's okay though, they don't have to. And I'm also tired of explaining how going from 126lbs a year before I was pregnant then to 139lbs right when I got pregnant and now to 173lbs at 33 weeks. Plus I was trying to lose weight right before I had found out. It's a lot harder mentally for me because this body right now does not feel like me. This is definitely body for baby, but right now I'm happy to have body for baby. It also gives me an idea of what I can do physically, if we decide to have a second. I keep saying, "imagine if I would've worked out more than 5 times this pregnancy. I'd probably still have some muscle on me" lol. Oh well. I'm just all up in my feelings right now. Excited for her to be born, excited to have my body back and improve it, excited to make a lifestyle change and be doing it with and for a beautiful little girl.
