Is Your Face Getting Bigger
Posted: 07-23-07 11:08am

Do all women face get bigger when they get pregnant? Because my God sisters' face is getting fatter and she is having a boy but my face is still the same and I'm having a girl. But she is a month ahead of me, so will my face get bigger as I progress in my prenancy? Let me know what you think.

i think in most pregnancies your face gets bigger towards the end of your pregnancy; when i was pregnant for my son my face didnt change but then within maybe the last 2 months my face swelled up a bit

I have always hated my large nose, but now I detest it! It's soooo ugly.

I also had the larger nose, I was looking at some pictures of myself when I was pregnant and my face looked swollen. My husband would kind of make fun of me for it.

I feel your pain! I am almost 9 months pregnant and I didn't notice my face was getting bigger until last week when someone took a picture of me. In the picture I was smiling and my nose looked much wider (believe me it was big enough pre-pregnancy) and my cheeks looked chubbier. I am afraid I am going to look terrible in all the pictures with my baby once she is here. Someone please tell me that your face and nose go back to normal after pregnancy otherwise I am getting plastic surgury!

Lol I think mine has gotten a little bit bigger because of the weight I've gained I guess because I never noticed having and extra chin before a couple of weeks ago! lol
