When's it due? :(

Yet again I was asked last night (by a stranger) when's my baby due? I'm 5' 8" and was 11st 13 on Monday but have been cutting down and have gone to 11st 10 which I know will be water. The trouble is I do stick my tum out and don't do enough sit ups. Well, she did me a favour last night cos I'm sick of being asked. I did a few sit ups whilst watching tv and am determined that's the last time anyone asks.

Jeez girl, at your height that's hardly obese is it! Try sorting your posture out too! Chin up, chest out, tummy tight and walk proud!

Fat my ass!!

thanks for that x I know but it's always the skinny ones that say stuff like this. My mam said to me 'you look slim though sometimes' Arghhhh She always comments on ppls weight and I go mad at her. It's dangerous to and not very supportive. Sign of low self esteem methinks

weight doesnt = clothes size. It is true people carry weight differently. If juniper is happy within her normal weight range what is wrong with that

I know Fio, I'm glad I only have sons in case I turn into her
I used to be very skinny when younger and would hate to be like that again. You're right about peeps carrying weight differently, my arms and legs are quite slimish (is that a word???) so it makes my tum look big.
What's Big Mamas? I'll have to take a looky
