Feeling Fat

So totally feeling fat today, I am 30 weeks and have gained 20lbs and I feel huge...... Not happy at all, wondering if anyone else out there is feeling the same or is it just me? My husband just keeps saying " your pregnant, so calm down" cause we all know that's the way to calm down a pregnant lady, Grrrrr. I know that I am going to gain weight but it really sucks !!!!

20lb weight gain at 30 weeks don't sound to much to me.  I'm sure it's just a funk your in!  During my last pregnancy (1st post-op), I gained around 30-35lbs total and it was all belly!  I lost all of that by my 6 week check up except 5-8lbs.  Just remember you are carrying around all that extra fluid, plus baby!  Maybe take a pic of your pregnant belly and you will see where that 20lbs truely is!

I understand how you feel! I gained 27lbs with my 1st pregnancy at 2 years post-op and I wanted to die! I'm only 14weeks into my second pregnancy and have already gained 10lbs!! ( I know it's because I haven't been exercising like I should and grazing too much, but still, it is really hard to gain weight when you've worked so hard to lose it in the past! )

 Hang in there, though you only have 8-10weeks left and you'll be dropping the lbs. again in no time from not having time to eat with a new baby in the house lol. . . With my 1st,  I lost 13lbs in the first 2 weeks postpartum and I ended up losing the rest within the next 10 weeks because I was breastfeeding. . . Hope this helps :) And congratulations on your pregnancy, by the way :)
