What people assume

why is it when you get pregnant people always assume you're going to get fat? I swear, everyone always asks my mom how I am doing and the first thing they want to know is am I eating healthy (yes, I ate healthy prepregnancy too) and have I put on a bunch of weight (I've only gained 7 lbs so far and I'm 24 weeks pregnant). Everything is the same as it was before on my body except my boobs have gotten a little bigger and I have a pregnant belly. It's like a stereotypical idea. Pregnancy= a lot of eating and a lot of weight gain. Grrr!!! Oh and why is it that when you get pregnant and are under the age of 20 people automatically assume that you and your parents don't get along because of your unplanned pregnancy? Yes, generally they are not happy at first, but babies are the greatest gift on earth; why would anyone think that just because it wasn't a planned birth your parents would not get over the intial "shock" and be completely excited.

people are stupid, that's why ! damn only 7 pounds? lucky !
I'll be 24 weeks tomorrow and I've gained 50lbs WTF ! lol

Because it's simple. People suck!

People do suck..
7 lbs is nothing.
I've gained 35!!

50 lbs?? If I gained 50 lbs they would have to check me into the morbidly obese clinic...haha. I was fluffy before I got pregnant, and I have gained only 6 lbs, but no complaints!

WTH, all you girls are so lucky. I don't understand why I've gained so much weight.

I was 175 pre pregnancy...so to me your still lucky!

It probably has to do with genetic or something. My mom only gained 14 lbs when she had my older brother and didnt have any complications, 20 lbs with me and 28 with my younger brother.

i dunno, ever since i was a baby i had a really high metabolism and if i didn't eat a ton of food i'd lose weight really bad, it's not so kool as everyone thinks...
