Hi ,

I have been totally fine with weight gain in pregnancy but just today I am feeling for want of a better word 'fat' . IN the past week i seem to have expanded massively (am 32 + 3) and just starting to feel uncomfortable sat down particularly . Plus a few people at work ( men!!) have made comments about how i am 'walking like a bloke' and 'fatty' . Tbh i know they are only joking and would not want to upset me but it does bother me a bit although i take it in good humour ! I have put on about a stone and a half which i know is not loads . Just wanted to have moan really and see how others are feeling . I will be better by tomorrow I'm sure . Apart from this i am loving been pregnant and cannot wait to meet my lil one- i know it will all be worth it!! Feeling loads of movement and kicking which is sooooo exciting x

Yep, me too! I've suddenly exploded at 35 weeks - it seems like there's no longer a definition of shape between thighs and rump.
