4. I don't think 45 lbs counts as a bump.

I was fucking enormous, that's what.

[mtnester]

7. I gained more than 50 lbs so it was more like a small mountain

mostly water (true)..it was actually closer to 60

I was back into all my pre-preggers clothes within 6 weeks (told you it was water)

I was gigantic all over...belly, face, ankles, legs...the only place you could not tell I was pregnant was from behind....my butt stayed normal size.

damn boy children

I was gigantic...I have a picture of me laying in the hospital bed a few hours after, my legs were enourmous.

17. Oh gosh, that was me too.

Every part of my body was swollen. I even had to get shoes a size bigger. It didn't matter if it was a boy or girl in my case. The only difference I remember was losing over 30# in 3 days after I had my daughter, the other nearly 30# came off by the 6 week checkup. With the boys, the water weight gradually came off over the 6 weeks.

My daughter went through the same thing when she was pregnant too.

9. Of course. But it didn't show until 5 months because I am pretty heavy to begin with

[Arkansas Granny]

10. I passed the bump stage after my fourth month. By the time I

delivered I looked like I was smuggling basketballs out of the sporting goods department.

[AlCzervik]

12. hmm, i gained 80 pounds so i will say yes.

[FloridaJudy]

13. Nope

More like a double-wide.

[fight4my3sons]

14. beyond bump when you carry twins...

but I only gained 15lbs with them, my first son I gained 35lbs :shrug:

[lildreamer316]

15. Not until after 5 1/2 months..

At nine months I looked like i had a basketball in my stomach. So cute.

[yellowdogintexas]

16. heartburn and shortness of breath, weight gain and swollen ankles

and I was hot all the damn time, sleeping with AC on full blast, no covers in November, in Indiana

OH...we called it showing.

Baby Bump....jeez

[ordinaryaveragegirl]

18. I had more of a beach ball.

Especially with my first. Every time I hear the term "baby bump," I have to make sure I didn't wander over to TMZ or something. :rofl:

[Yavin4]

19. Ever Ask A Woman About Her Baby Bump

and she isn't pregnant. Awkward.

[davsand]

20. Nah, bump doesn't begin to describe it. I was a beached baby whale

I swear to you the heartburn started within one hour of conception and it lasted up to a couple of days after I delivered that child. I actually lost weight being pregnant because I had heart burn so bad I didn't WANT to eat anything.

My hairdresser swears to this day that she thought I was making it up that I was pregnant. I told her that I ALWAYS wear tent sized shirts and pants with waistbands that roll down like a roller blind...

:spank:

21. Bump, try looking like I'd tip over!

I exercised all through my pregnancy...and in the later stages I took up prenatal water aerobics until the day they tried to induce me before the kid would would cooperate and come out.

The kid was late anyway and I looked unbalanced, like I was going to tip over. My belly was bigger than a basketball, more like a super-sized watermelon. (~9lbs)...

[MassLiberal]

22. um, no...

After the first few months, my entire body was transformed.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

23. You couldn't even tell I was pregnant...My tummy was completely flat
