Plus Size, Preggers and Proud!

Mar 19th, 2010, 00:32 AM   #1
 
So I was looking through all these lovely pics of everyone's Tri-One bumps, and noticed they're all lovely and toned!

I promised one myself, but my toned tummy is quilted by a few spare tyres!

It got me wondering, is there anyone else here who is Plus Sized, Preggers And Proud?

If you're a UK16 or above, and in Tri-One, then let me know

I'm a 16/18 shirt, and 18/20 jeans =]
I qualify for PPP - do you?

yep i will join your club, im about the same size as you. I had just joined slimming world to try to lose weight, paid loads for a 12 week plan and then found i was pregnant still following the plan though so trying not to put too much on.

I lost weight when I was pegnant, I put on 7 1/2lbs and little one came out at 7lb 3oz...I actually weigh 2 stone lighter since being pregnant!! I had never eaten so healthy in my life and craved water (I HATE water!!!). I am now a size 16/18 whereas I was an 18/20 before I had Charlie!!!

i was the same size as you when found out i was pregnant this time and the last time. it doesn t really concern me. only put on 6lb when preg the last time and bubs was 8lb 2oz. i have put on about 5 lbs so far this time as well. but with my first i was a size 12/14 and put on 3st the first time.

i would lie to lose some weight after this little one born im sure running after 2 under 3 year old kids will help lol x

Can I sneak in too, although I'm tri 2 (shhhh don't tell anyone!) ! I'm about the same size and I suppose that's the reason I hadn't put up any bumpy pics. Definately got more of a bump now but always been a bit conscious of the spare tyres so can still see them! Some day I'll be brave enough to put on a bumpy pic, but I am who I am, lumps, bump and all!

I'm a size 16! I'm only 5'4, so I'm going to look like a beach ball in a few months!

I am sooooooo loving this thread!! I would love to join your PPP club!!!! I am a 16/18/20... it really depends! Size 18 in jeans, most of the time my boobs wont fit in anything smaller than an 18/20. I just found out I am pregnant last night and my weight has been a worry through TTC. Now my mind has changed to thinking about having to get a disapproving look from my doctor when I book my first appt? xxx

Don't worry too much Pudds, I was worried too, and again when I first saw the midwife and she put me on the scales (eeek!!) but they didn't say too much about weight, just that this wasn't the best time to be extreme dieting, just eat healthily as we normally should be (easier said than done!).
