I'm having a little freak out RANT

alysedelovely · Feb 2nd, 2010, 12:31 PM

So I guess it all the sudden hit me that I'm going to be gaining weight! I started freaking out.. I mean I am not skinny by any means and now I'm going to look like a beached whale!! My OH tried to comfort me by telling me that it would be all baby weight but I can't help but drive myself nuts at the fact that I'm gonna be so fat!!

I feel so selfish for even thinking this way.. It's just I am already insecure with my body and now I'm gonna add 20 or so pounds ahhhhhh help me! Please tell me you felt like this?? I feel like the most selfish soon to be mother in the world.. Did anyone lose all their weight really fast? I just keep feeling sorry for myself and it's pitiful.. I shouldn't be worried about my freaking weight!

Oh god yes, even if I see a quarter of a pound gain on the scales I cry...planning to lose my baby weight asap. I have badd insecurity problems aswell, don't worry. If you work at it your weight will go back to normal after baby

I'm gonna be jealous if you only gain around 20 pounds

I've been really insecure about my body before pregnancy so now I just gave up I don't even care anymore I have all these stretchmarks and this big huge bump I don't even wanna think what I'll look like after I give birth!

Just remember it's all worth it in the end hun

I daren't get on the scales. i never get on the scales and judge my weight by which clothes fit! long as im happy and fit in the clothes in my wardrobe thats fine

however this morning i had a mild heart attack when i tried on 2 ! yes 2 ! pairs of jeans and they dont fit

i only had them on the other week. i was distraught and after my little episode i chose a different pair !! so hopefully i dont gain too much weight + i may someday get back into those jeans ...

yes x a million!

i actually have been eating SO much which is so unlike me, prior to the pregnancy i had a really hard time eating and would BARELY eat anything during the day which is really unhealthy. but then when i started getting morning sickness i would eat everything and anything to keep it down and now that i'm getting cravings, i'm eating UNHEALTHY a majority of the time.

i'm only 22 weeks and i've gained 40 pounds already. (SO GROSS) and i still have so far to go

i'm only five foot too, so you can imagine. ;D i keep looking at myself and thinking wow i'm friggin fat but i just keep thinking about after the pregnancy i'll be able to go back to my normal self and hopefully start eating more healthily and lose all of it!

we all know how you feel. i feel so crappy but just try and keep positive as much as possible!
