meltdown of sorts...

ok ... so i have gained maybe - MAYBE - 2 pounds total since i found out i was pregnant a little over a month ago. it's fluctuating between losing 4 and gaining 1.5...

i've already got a belly ...

i was sitting on the couch last night and just looked down and started crying ... im only 8 weeks (almost) pregnant... im not supposed to have a belly yet... DH calmed me down, but its still scary to think what im going to look like at 20/30/40 weeks!!!

You will be fabulous, do not worry. And if you are careful on the whole eating thing you can do fine. My girl friend who had gastric bypass about 5-6 years ago managed to gain only like 15-20lbs in her pregnancy and 8 of it came in the last couple weeks from water weight. And do not sweat it if you do gain, it's a part of the whole thing and it will come off after :) *BIG HUG*

i think in your head you're associating this pregnant belly with the old belly. once you feel the baby moving and it sinks in that this is a pregnant belly and not a fat belly you are going to wear that belly like a blue ribbon. umm does that make any sense?

I agree with the others, you are going to be an amazing beautiful pregnant woman. That belly is going to be beautiful and worth it :)

I agree too. You have waited so long for this and a pregnant belly is a beautiful thing. And this is coming from the girl who NEVER wants children! But there is just something magical about a pregnant belly.

We are all here for you...You are an AMAZING woman and friend.
