PLUS SIZE MOMS....when u were preggo?

when did u really pop? i am 3 days shy of 27 weeks and i feel like sometimes somethings wrong with me... like I should be bigger than i am... sometimes when i'm out people dont notice i'm preggo... if you really look you can tell... like people who know me notice... but i just feel when i look at other girls belly pics they are so much bigger than i am....

is it just me and everythings fine... just another downfall to being plus size....

i'm waiting for the day i just pop and everyone notices

Re: PLUS SIZE MOMS....when u were preggo?

I felt like this when I was pregnant. I felt like I always just looked fat. UNtil that ONE day, I woke up, went to work and ALL the parents (Im a preschool teacher) asked if I was.

It all of a sudden just happens. I remember going to foxwoods in like April and I was due in August and finally looking in the full length mirror and thinking, wow I look pregnant. Take pictures, for some reason, you notice it so much more in pics. I took pics right before I left for the hospital when my water broke and when I looked at them when I got home I remember thinking..omg I was huge! But I didnt feel it at the time for some reason.

Its kind of a good thing though..at the end you will praying not to be pregnant and big anymore..so enjoy it now.

Here is a picture of me when I was 24 weeks. I was pretty popped at this point, but I got REALLY BIG!

Re: PLUS SIZE MOMS....when u were preggo?

About 26 weeks! I started really look pregnant! It was so exciting! Finally I could really let my tummy out!

Re: PLUS SIZE MOMS....when u were preggo?

I'd say I popped around 28 weeks this time.... With Nate it was around 32 weeks.

Also with each PG you will , even if Plus sized show sooner.

For me, my first Pregnancy, At 22 weeks no one knew I was pregnant at all.

Im 20 weeks now ( monday) and Im WAY bigger then I ever imagined I would be...LOL....

Re: PLUS SIZE MOMS....when u were preggo?

I honestly feel like I never really popped or looked that pregnant, just fatter. I never got a perfect round belly. I always had the stupid indent. I am determined to be thin the next time around so I can be a cute preggo and actually want pictures of myself.

oh i HATE that stupid indent... i call it my double bubble....

Re: PLUS SIZE MOMS....when u were preggo?

By around 26 weeks or so you could tell that I was preggo and not just gaining weight.

Re: PLUS SIZE MOMS....when u were preggo?

I am plus sized (size 20/22) and I can't really say when I started really showing, but I was wearing maternity tops at 4 or 5 months just becuase I wanted to feel pregnant and wnated others to know I was too. I was definitely showing by Memorial day, which was either the start or the end of my 29th week. DH said I really popped around then but was showing before then too but not as much. So hang in there, in a few weeks you will probably pop! And if you aren't already, start wearing some maternity tops - it helps with you "feeling" and looking pregnant!
ETA: this is from Memorial day.
