Any plus size mamas willing to share belly pics? - Page 3

[MoonWillow]

Oh I think I have you beat. I am 11 weeks and weigh what I weighed when DS was born and it's a BIG number! I needed to come see this thread today because I was starting to feel a little funky about my weight. Is there any other plus size and pregnant threads around here? I have only found this one.

I'm currently 25 weeks with my first baby and I took this pic last week....

I'm 5'6 and was 185 before I got pregnant... so far, I've gained 4lbs.

You know I've been wondering this too. If there isn't, there should be! I'm wondering if somebody higher up than me would have any way of arranging a category in pregnancy for plus size mamas, because the whole thing of being pregnant can be very different when you're plus sized rather than skinny.

oops.

Not pregnant anymore, but definitely plus-sized. Here's me the day before Esther was born:

Hmm, size. I was a 16/18 before I got pregnant. 182 I was about 217 there.

I was so happy this last time around; I actually was obviously pregnant for the first time in three! (As in, actual strangers noticed I was pregnant.)

Saramomofmany maybe we can just have our own daily or weekly thread in this forum. Unless anybody has any idea how to request a subforum? Is anyone else interested?

[wonderwahine]

im interested, but im no longer pregnant....could we possibly make a plus size womens tribe?

I found this in "finding your tribe". It's not for pregos though. Do we want a pregnant and plus size? I'm not sure.

i think a pregnant and plus size would be cool, because we do get different experiences during our pregnancys from thinner women.

[Saramomofmany]

Ok, plus size pregnancy thread...

It's not it's own section, but it's own thread. Mama's who are pregnant and plus sized can post over here and as long as we keep replying to it like we've done with the pictures I think it should work out!!

MotherWren, that you found that discussion thread. That's nice for the mamas that aren't pregnant, so for future reference... Sara

[MoonWillow]

Yea that one seemed to reference another one somewhere too. Maybe we can just start our own thread here. "Plus size and pregnant mammas weekly" or some such thing.

Viola,

Yes, that was great to share...the more pics the merrier. Isn't it amazing to see how much your tummy can stretch and then to see that third picture with you holding your little one up to your tummy was really cute!! What a splendid idea!!

Thanks for sharing. You look beautiful!!
