I’m currently 14 weeks and beginning to have that firm feeling in my uterus , like things are growing. The scale hasn’t changed much yet. My first pregnancy I gained a lot of weight, like 40 lbs.

It took me 7 years to love my body again. I’m 10lbs lighter than when I started my first pregnancy. I struggled with losing and regaining the weight. I’m only 5’1” so 10-20lbs is a HUGE difference on my frame. I wondered if I would ever get my waist back (I did). My boobs were massive while nursing and I hated it. I loathe hearing “love your post partum body, you grew a life”. I DONT love it at all. I’ve been there, I’m not looking forward to it. I want so badly to not gain the excess weight like I gained last time. Is there anyone out there that faired better with their second pregnancy than their first?
