 Topic: Waist sizes
Posted: 03 August 2006 at 7:29pm |

Funny question, but I'm just wondering how much bigger your "waist" is as I feel heaps bigger this (third) time around! But kinda for fun...
I'm 4 months preg and have an extra 28cm around my tummy.

I still fit my pre preggy pants i just can't do them up because of the big lump in my tummy . So far i have put on about 7kgs and i have only put it on in my tummy the rest of me (except my boobs) seems to be the same size.

I've pretty much only grown a tummy (and gianter boobs) but I have nooo idea what my measurements were/are. I do know that I have put on 16kg since the start, but haven't put on any in the last month (not from lack of eating either!)

I've only measured my waist once, and that was at 31 weeks - 100cm... I thought that was a nice round number to match the round belly! I have no idea what my waist measurement was before pregnancy, but so far there's an extra 6kg of me. I think 3kg of that is thanks to Whittakers being on special!!!

I think I probably only know how big I was before, because when I got pregnant I had two false negatives and my Doc told me I must be having a break from ovulating  - so I went out and bought some nice snug jeans and fitted them for three weeks 
But I probably should say, for those of you who are feeling lots bigger, that so far in my pregnancy I have lost 4kg then gained 5kg... so hopefully that picks up soon.
Have my scan this afternoon! I'm actually nervous and this is my third babe LOL

I am not sure about my measurements pre pregnancy either. I am too scared to jump on the scales! Last time I checked which was probably around 1 month ago I had put on around 8-10 kgs but I don't think it has changed that much since. My weight gain has mostly been on my tummy plus my thighs and butt - I seriously need to do lots of power walking after baby is born but I am not going to worry about it at this stage

Look on the bright side, you get to buy loads of new clothes! yay for shopping!

Frantic, at the moment my midwife is regularly checking what I'm eating etc etc so I'd say you've got it better off!
I've had my scan now and I'm only 16 1/2 weeks so that probably accounts for less weight gain. The upside is that we have to go back again at 20 weeks LOL because the heart is too small to have a good look at.... I'm pleased about that because Baby is sitting right down so maybe we can find out what it is next time

I put on heaps with my first (good ole anderson mince pies twice a day) with duaghter I put on around 18 kgs but needed it and was back to 65kgs day after I had her. This one i lost about 3 kgs and now have put on 3kgs since pre pregnancy weight. I have only put on around tummy (which I reckon I am huge) My midwife measures around my tummy each visit and last week I was 98cm. Looked in a baby diary I kept with baby no 2 - Brooke - and I was only 97cm at 35 weeks so I now know I was much bigger (although pre pregnancy weigh I was about 10 kgs heavier this time around as well)

Im very glad we dont own scales! Last time I checked my weight a few weeks back I had put on 10kgs. But according to some book I read, Im pretty sure it said about 500gm a week at the moment gain is normal so probably is a lot more than 10 kg now!
Yay mummy becks!, we both got married on the best day!Hee hee! Feels like ages ago already! Prob cos weve had preggy brain since then!
