Weight going to my thighs

Anyone else find the weight they are putting on is going to their thighs. My thighs are getting huge and look bigger than the rest of my body they look huge.

I know how you feel. Although with my last pregnancy I didn't put any weight on but as soon as DD was born my thighs just ballooned and 20 months later they are still the same even though I've lost weight it wont shift from my thighs

Yep. This is a thing. I remember being told that it was to do with fat storage for producing milk (not from your thighs, obviously!), or something. Which I accepted at the time, but no idea whether or not it's true!

Yep, I'm almost down to pre-pregnancy weight (which is still 3st overweight, TBF) and my thighs are massive. It wasn't this bad before I was pregnant. So annoying. I carry all of my excess weight between my waist and my knees.

I have always had big thighs. 37.5 weeks now with 2nd and they are horribly massive Sad
