Hi as the title suggests I'm plus size and pregnant and I'm at the in between stage where my tummy looks bigger but not bump like! It made me laugh as I read somewhere this week the baby is the size of a doughnut when it looks like I've been eating all the doughnuts 😳 in reality I've not gained weight but it looks like I have and I'm having a tough time with how I'm looking anyone else in the same boat with a B shape belly?

Hi ya, I am plus size too.
I'm 17+3 and only in the last few days have felt a bit different with regards to my tummy, I just feel like I can't hold it in as much as used to, but it's not a bump, I just feel a bit fatter!
How are you doing otherwise? I've got my first consultant appointment this week cos my BMI was over 30.

I never thought of myself as plus size, I know I'm a few stone overweight for my height but I'm a size 12-14. BMI came back over 30 so technically I am obese Hmm

I'm plus size, currently 5 weeks 2 days.

Plus size here, hourglass shaped size 22.
25 weeks gone and belly in high and round, it's definitely a bump, with a little flabby bit at the bottom! So it's B shaped I guess but not really noticeable by anyone unless I'm naked!
I live in leggings and tunic dresses :)

17 weeks and size 18/20, BMI 30 something... I definitely can't suck it in like I used to, this is baby #2 and with my first I didn't get to this point until after 20 weeks.

I'm wearing quite floaty clothes just now as I haven't told work yet and hoping it just looks like I've gained a bit 😳

hello, I'm 9 weeks and yesterday at three I started to bleed lightly and was a light pink. it got a bit heavy but not much. round about half 7 ish I passed a clot it was smaller then a 50p the blood went light round about 8pm yesterday it fully stopped and I've had nothing ever since. anything this could be as someone in my family just lost their baby at 9 weeks but had big clots and loads of pain and boos so not sure what happend to me. @Magic32019

Not plus size but put on a couple stone pre pregnancy (fertility treatment).

I’m now 22 weeks and still have a slight b shaped bump. Up until about 18 weeks thought I just looked fat. Would have loved a nice neat bump.

Hello all, I'm 15 weeks (nearly 16) and my BMI is 30. I'm a size 16-18.

I have a massive belly tonight, even my nightie doesn't fit properly Confused but it's my usual paunch plus MASSIVE bloat (I guess baby in there somewhere! Haha)
