i look like a whale

Its all in your head, I'm sure you don't look like a whale. You probably look like any other pregnant women. Are you walking? If you walk it will help the process of the baby coming out easier and it can help you loose weight if it makes you feel better!

I know how you feel Amanda. How far along are you? When are you due? My hubby keeps telling me I'm beautiful which I love him for. It's just hard to believe when my ankles are swollen and people keep stopping and asking if I'm having twins lol. On the upside having the baby will be the quickest diet you ever went on. When else will you drop 10-20 pounds in a matter of hours? lol. Hang in there we're all in the same boat

yeah me too, and ive still got almost 3 weeks to go. at least it wont be permanent. just think of giving birth as a really good weight loss plan.
