Cellulite

[MrsMuskett]

I knew my body would change when pregnant,but my god the cellulite all over my thighs and bum is crazy! I'm covered in it,my currently 28weeks,5ft 1 and up 30lbs already,my weight gain was crazy in weeks 18 to 26,thankfully it's now slowed down but I'm left with awful legs and arm fat,yuk! Has anyone had this or know if it will go away after the babys born/baby weights gone??

Me too! I used to be very fit and while I had some bits of cellulite on the backs of my things - what's happened over the last 28+3 weeks is ridiculous! I even have cellulite on my arms now. I'm hoping it's just my body storing necessary reserves...

Me too! I've heard that it's water retention and goes away afterwards!

Yes, me too, I hate it. It did go away after my first pg so I'm hoping it will after this one too.

Mine was bad before, am now 18 weeks and has gotten worse, dread to think what's its gonna be like by the end

Yep, me too - on my legs and ass. I look like an orange :-(

This post has put the fear of God in me. I'm only 4 weeks but, despite being slim, already have loads of cellulite. I'm going to look DISGUSTING in seven months' time.

I had this and it went away (well, I was left with what I had pre preg!). I am a size 8 pre preg and it all goes on my thighs during preg. Hopefully will go away again... Maybe pushing buggy about a lot and BF had something to do with it....

The worst is when you clench your bum! It's like a big ball of bubble wrap...
