Feeling fat.....

When did you all stop feeling fat and start feeling cute?? LOL... I feel like poop because i'm showing but not in the cute prego way. People who know me can tell its the baby bump, but when am I going to start looking pregnant to outsiders instead of just like mrs. chubbycakes?? (Thats a word DH used to describe a little chubby baby we know lol) i'm 20w tomorrow....

I am fat oh, and I'm 22 weeks

So, I feel fat AND pregnant.... it's fine. I think some people just look at me as if I'm really super fat... not realizing that a good portion of this is due to Crouton.... others realize it immediately (I've got quite a bumb by now).

Clothes have a lot to do with it. My button down sweaters that are empire in cut with a big open split by the belly accentuate Crouton. Bulky/flowing clothes tend to just make me look like a whale.

(I'd like to complain for a moment about all of those loose flowing mumu shirts with puff sleeves they try to sell to us.... Yikes that is unflattering for people like me and just makes me look huge) I find tees and tanks worn with empire cut summer sweaters accentuate the pregnant belly.....

I don't think I ever stopped feeling fat with #1, and now its worse with #2. You will, of course, look more pregnant than large with a little time. Wearing preggo shirts and not baggy clothes helps.
