Sorry to be so superficial, but I'm 35 weeks pregnant and have put on 2.5 stone through this pregnancy so far! I've noticed recently that my legs seem to be huge! Is this swelling or weight gain? 👀 The first picture is now, the second was when I was around 5 weeks pregnant!

Hard to say! Were you very active pre-pregnancy? Have you kept up exercise during? A lot of people seem to gain a bit of extra weight during pregnancy due to increased appetite and reduction in physical activity but often lose it if breastfeeding/active post-birth recovery.

With the photo it could just be the angle and lighting.
