Pregnancy

27 weeks and I'm HUGE

I'm usually a size 8-10, weigh around 9 stone. I'm currently 26 weeks and I think I've put around 3 stone I'm already! My knees hurt and my thighs chaff and I feel a fucking lump. 😕 I have one dd and lost two more pregnancies at 17 weeks so technically my 2nd/4th depending how you look. I'm terrified it won't come off and I'll be this big forever. I have never felt so unfit in my life. Is anyone else this big or am I a monster?

Hi there. I know how you feel. I'm 13 weeks with baby #4 and feeling similar. I still hadn't lost the 'baby' weight I put on from the others so was starting from 4 stone overweight anyway. Have put on 7lbs so far but have a long way to go. Sorry for your previous losses by the way wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy.

I just can't stop eating. 😬 All bad things too. I've always been a bit of a fit freak and very worried I'll never lose it.

Congrats on your pregnancy! Sounds like emotional eating maybe due to your loses? Whatever the reason the weight gain so far has been pretty excessive. You don't need any additional calories till the third trimester and even then it's only 200 extra a day.

Just cut out some of the crap and do some walking or maybe even swimming before your joints really do start giving you bother.
