I am a HEFFALUMP!

Like, OMG, standing on the scales the other day in the bathroom!
It can not be happening to MOI?
But yes it is happening, it is real, the scales are accurate, I am officially FAT!
At 25 weeks pregnant, 28 weeks if I go by the NHS dates, I am weighing in at nine and a half stone- aarrrghhhhhhhhhh..........
With at least three more months to go there is every possibility that I will bounce in over ten stone before my baby is born.
So depressing!
With my first baby - ok so that WAS OVER 17 years ago - I didn't even reach nine stone before the birth. In fact I've never gone more than a few pounds over nine before with either of my pregnancies.
It's so scary. It's not like I can go on a diet either, being pregnant, although I am sticking to salads, fruit and natural foods now.
My iron count has rocketed through the roof, lol! I am no longer anemic, as my hemoglobin levels are well above average, which is something positive I can reflect on!
I don't know if that has anything to do with my hefty weight gain. Or more likely it's because of my age? At 37, 38 this year, I am worried that I may not be able to regain my 7 and a half stone pre pregnancy weight come August, after baby is born!

Don't want to whine on too much on here, being a dating site and all! But my baby is extremely active - always kicking and moving, and I'm feeling quite uncomfortable with it too, as baby seems to be lying quite low down in my belly!

With summer slowly approaching I am soon going to have to ditch the fleece jacket that I have been hiding my bump under for months now. I really am a heffalump, and soon everyone will know it. Boo Hooooooo..................lol

I would have never known you were a Heffalump if you wouldn't have told me!

What's all this "Stone" stuff?

I am 182 lbs. How many stones is that?

Have a wonderful day and Congrats on the Baby.

You look great in the piccy....my daughter is 29 weeks now, and 'hates' being pregnant...well, she says being 'fat'...and she can't wait to get 'it' out....i am soooo sure i didn't moan about my weight as much as she does......i enjoyed being pregnant except for the fact i had 24 hr sickness for the whole term with both my kids......take care, and keep us updated....

Never Give Up Hope...Your Dreams Are Out There....
