I can feel another growth spurt coming on! I already had one last week, a major one where I really popped out! My belly is itching and I'm getting stretching cramps again, that only happens a few days before I can noticably tell I got bigger

This is out of CONTROL! I'm eating very, very moderately and healthy and I just cannot keep my expanding belly under control whatsoever! I look like some of you girls at 30-32 weeks pregnant and I'm only supposed to be 17! I feel like a whale

I know I should be happy that it is ONLY my bump growing and I'm not gaining weight anywhere else, but if I have another 23 weeks to go they're going to have to get a crane to lift me out of my house when I go into labour!

Here's a bump pic from 2 days ago so you can see what I'm talking about :





I just feel like a blimp I can't even keep my back straight anymore half the time because its just supporting so much front weight (boobs and belly)


Sorry, just a little whine.


(forgive the clothes, all my maternity/looser shirts are coming on Saturday)

Don't worry hun, my sister really shot out in the first half of her pregnancy and really panicked, like you. She did slow down in the end though and wasn't too big at all. I know how you feel about the growth spurt though. I get one every couple of weeks and it is so uncomfortable. I find that if I slather baby oil all over before I get out of the shower, it really, really helps.
Hope you feel better soon babes x x

You have a gorgeous bump, but I know what you mean. It is uncomfortable, and you do feel out of control!!! I think maybe it will slow down. We all grow differently, like we all get different symptoms and stuff. It could be water I guess! Is it firm or is it 'bouncy'?!!!
