Hee hee hee. I am almost 28 weeks, and yes, I do feel like a blimp! I am so lucky to have such a good husband. He often tells me how beautiful he thinks I am, and will rub my belly and tell me how sexy it is to him.

I am about to the point, as well, of having a hard time getting out of bed. If my hubby happens to be awake when I get up he will help push me into a sitting position so that I can get out of the bed. Otherwise I just have to roll onto my side and use my legs over the edge of the bed to help give me some leverage.

lol ive got the same problem now heheheh thanks for hubby'd assistance. Most of the time I just feel like a human egg lmao but it helps to have a husband like mine coz he helps me with everything. Dont worry hun most of us would go through that stage it can't be helped especially with the oozing hormones that we do have.
Lol just always blame it on them

Ohh no honey...It's all of us!! Lol...I started out at 125, and now way a staggering 165(all belly!!!) I feel totally winded after walking for too long. Well I can walk...Just don't ask me to talk while i'm doing it. My diaphragm has to be the size of a grape by now!! Lol...And the sad thing is...I'm only 26 weeks!! Lol...I was just extreemely petite.

I don't know what's going on, but my self esteem is crashing. But my fiance is always coming from behind and rubbing my belly and kissing my neck and showering me with compliments. I just feel like how could someone still be attracted to someone who has chanced so much (physically.) apparently girls, being pregnant is very very sexy. Maybe because it's happeneing so quickly, I haven't had a chance to really take it all in...

Dont worry lol were all in the same boat!!!

I didnt start to show with my first till about 8 months and this time didnt start to show till about 7 months but I balloned right up so I look like a whale hubby jokes around with me and I dont mind cause its only temporary. Just remeber that you will be back in shape about 6 weeks after having your baby maybe later if you put on alot of weight breastfeeding also helps with weight loss..
