There is a preggo pic on the bottom left, I've gained 35 lbs, I feel like a massive whale! It's almost over though, Thank God!

My feelings won't be hurt, please answer honestly, do I look like a whale?

Answer 1

I gained 60 pounds with daughter number one

I gained 80 pounds with daughter number two

I gained 80 pounds again, with daughter number three

I ate like a insatiable shark whenever I got pregnant...  So compared to me, you are looking goooooooood mommy

Answer 2

I'm not even gonna look at the pic.  35 lbs isn't too unhealthy of a weight gain.  Esp if you're carrying a lot of fluid.  It's unfortunate that you have such negative feelings about your body at a time when you should be rejoicing about it.  Think about miracle your body is producing, rather than how much of a whale you feel like.

Answer 3

Lol no you do NOT look like a whale :) I feel the same way you do though. Im 39 weeks and have gained a little less than 40 pounds but you cant tell at all....most of the weight is in my tummy and my b***s have gone up almost 2 cup sizes! Im sure most of the weight that both of us have gained is from retaining water. Goodluck!

Answer 4

I'm having a hard time finding it. Sorry...

If it makes you feel much better, I gained 80 pounds on my first pregnancy. I seriously felt so fat and unattractive. Hang in there, things will get better!

Answer 5

Answer 6

I've been feeling the same. I have gained a little over 40lbs. If you saw a before picture of me i looked skinny (5'3 and 130 lbs not that I was big before) and now you look at me and WOW! I'm 173 lbs and still 5'3. It's all in my belly and then some swelling in feet and face. You deffinatly don't look like a whale!! If anyone does it's me! lol. Good luck and Congrats!!

Answer 7

Well no, you don't look like a whale! But man your b***s are huge! Lol, I am so jealous.

Answer 8

uhmm... no!!

Answer 9

Personally I think you look wonderful!!! No you don't look like a whale and I'd say you are doing just fine! To me it looks like most weight is in your belly, your face is fuller, but not pudgy! You're beautiful!!

Answer 10
