Hi ladies, am new on here so hello to all!
So, I just wanted to start something up about body image as I know that this can be quite a contentious issue. Firstly a little rant about myself first. I am now 14 weeks and oh man have I expanded! eek. My waist has disappeared and about two thirds of my clothes do not fit me anymore. It's too depressing! I mean fine, if I was 20 weeks and showing but I'm not supposed to be at this stage. Or maybe it was the extra piece of Christmas cake that did it lol. I mean, I am looking forward to getting my bump in the 2nd trimester where I can proudly grin and show off my bump to the world. But just now? I just look bloated. Any thoughts or ladies like me?

Fourteen weeks is the worst stage. No real bump to speak of, yet you feel fat bigger than normal. Don't worry, youll soon have a bump and then yu can float around serenely, and be all goddess-y .
Don't forget to organise your Demi Moore pictures!
