Anyone else kinda scared about getting bigger?

Let me explain... I'm only 5' and before baby weighed 105 lbs. I'm a puny little thing. Today is my 22 week mark and am definitly showing. After seeing some photos from you guys later on in the pregnancy, I just don't believe my body could possibly handle carry a baby! I'm afraid that they'll put me on bedrest or not let me walk at 8 months!

Anyone else on the same boat?? Am I just super paranoid??Chat Icon Chat Icon

I'm only 4'11 but weigh more but I feel like I'm going to tip over, I'm not showing that much at 21 weeks but I'm definitely getting bigger and I'm worried about how big I'm going to get.

You are not the only one, I am 5'2 and i worry about getting big everyday. I am only 13 weeks and i can see a belly already, people cant tell, but it's definitely there. Pre-pregnancy i was 110lbs, I already gained 3lbs. I am scared out of my mind that my body wont be able to handle all the weight i'll be gaining. I mostly worry about my legs not being able to support me, they are extremely thin.

Re: Anyone else kinda scared about getting bigger?

Heck I'm 5' 9 and I worry.
So far I've been very small- but I know the last few months are where you and the baby gain the most and I just worry about the strain on my body - not to mention the vanity part of it.

But in the end we can't control it- I just try to eat as healthy as I can (which I don't always suceed at it) and look to the future when I can get it off!
