pregnant and feel huge!!!

[echo159]

Hi all,


Hope your all well?

Thought i'd dip my toe back in here as used to be on here all the time before i got pregnant.

I did CD for 7 months and lost 5 stone, got from a size 24 to almost a size 14!

I felt so damb good about myself, managed to get into the clothes i liked in shops and everyone told me i looked great and i've never felt better.

I got down to 12 stone 10lbs then met someone and two months into our relationship i got pregnant! We are still together and really happy, only have 5 weeks left till he arrives and i am excited but really scared about the birth as it's my first.

Anyway i just weighed myself like an idiot as i have eaten lots throughout my pregnancy, especially lately as fed up and want my body back and the gym and can't wait to get back on CD. I weigh 15 stone 10lbs!!! I have put on 3 stone!!! I so have to eat healthy and eat less for the last 5 weeks!!

So my plan is to breast feed if i can for about 2 months and cut out bread, potatoes and pasta, but still eat healthy. Then beginning Oct i can start CD again!

Just can't wait to get my body back as feel **** and confidence has gone down and don't feel sexy any more, which is also affecting our sex lives!!

Any body else been through this?

Thanks

aw im sorry to hear that but congratulations on the baby

i joined cambridge to help me with my weight as i have pcos which is stopping me from becoming pregnant so your story has really encouraged me

i cant give any advice on your message but ive heard that breast feeding does the world of good for your body once baby is here and just remember your partner loves you you are providing a safe and secure home for his unborn child

take one small step at a time and im sure your confidence will return x good luck x

Congrats on the baby hunni... and seriously enjoy motherhood. Im sure your partner is not bothered about your body. End of the day do it for you but dont overdo yourself.. your going to need all the energy you can have for your little one.
