I’ve just edited and uploaded the pics for the week by week section for pregnancy weeks 12, 13 and 14 (I’m now 14.5 weeks pregnant) and I have to say it’s left me feeling a little bit down.
I’m trying hard not to, but it’s getting really hard to come to terms with my change in body shape. I keep telling myself it’s for all the right reasons, but I still can’t help but feel a bit of dismay. My weight is something I’ve had to work hard for I guess (ever since the day I injured my back and put on weight), so it feels horrible to suddenly feel like I’m getting it all back again.
I feel so hungry all the time and it reminds me of the days when I used to be terrible with controlling my diet and binge eating too much. Again, I KNOW that I’m hungry cuz I’m growing a baby, but I can’t help it affecting me, I don’t know how to not let it affect me emotionally.
But I know to do the right thing and there’s a baby growing. In 6 months time I know I can work hard at getting it all back again.

Aww Mel. Here’s a hug for ya.
At least you know its for the right reasons! To be honest I too have been looking at myself in the mirror and feeling lousy about it. Even despite the fact that I’m cooking a baby also.
So your not alone! I too am as weird as you. Hehe.
Loving the new pics Mel, your looking absolutely fab hun.
