I had my doctor's appointment yesterday. This mommy-to-be is not overweight anymore. Yey! Thanks goodness to my diet goal. :-) Am dieting but not under-eating, okay? If you were following my posts, I was once told by my OB-GYN/doctor a sort of overweight, well she just said "what happened to your weight? Your weight should be like this" . Alright, she did not tell me that because I was underweight or I have a normal weight, you bet! I like the way she handles her patients like me because I then watched what I ate (or eat, until now am still watching and behaving great) because I want to do the normal process of baby delivery or at least, I am following the normal way of pregnancy pattern.
Aside from my weight happiness, I was also examined the normal routine pregnancy journey of giving urine test and blood pressure monitor. And all are fine. The baby-in-my-tummy's heartbeat was normal as well, it is 150. My tummy's measurement at 34 weeks and 2 days old is 35 centimeters which also great. All-in-all are fine. Thanks God. I just have to suffer looking at the stretch marks and the legs cramp, palpitation and shortness of breath, those are normal during this period anyway.
I had no ultrasound again for that visit but that is fine as long as the baby-in-my-tummy is healthy, that is what matters to this mommy-to-be.
Plus size is very much different from obese. And I guess you already know that. My OB-GYN is very much particular with weight. She will tell her patients if she is already at the neck of going overweight or overweight itself. But that does not mean big women are overweight, okay? As what I know, this depends unto her height and the structure. Afar from that, I do not know where it leads or should I say I would just not say anything but plus size women need
plus size dresses to fit for their measurement. If you have the 12W-44W measurement, then I suggest you may like to check out Roamans E-Store for such and indulge the different style of clothing and other women accessories for your need (as well as your wants/luxury). Women deserves luxury as well, so worry-not if you have bucks to back-up for such to get your own. *smile*
As for me as a mommy-to-be, being a mommy does not mean being plus-size but if our body expands (to which I always hear from my mommy friends, hopefully height expands too), then that will be the time that we then need a plus size dresses. We should not worry about that, but the bucks to pay for it because all the clothes we have will be undersized and that means, new clothes and others! Otherwise, not a biggie deal because plus size clothing are just right in the corner. :-)
You already know USA has known for big plus sizes. Yes, women is included with that especially the mommies. I am not surprised at all. And it is not bad, it is just a size. We got to play with what we have. After all, there are many plus size clothing available. If you are from size of 12-32 in modern plus-size woman classic feminine apparel, then you got to check it out. There is nothing to worry about when it comes to fashion. There are many fashionable clothes for plus size woman like you just like the style of the thin folks. Isn't that great?
When it comes to plus size fashion search journey for plus size women, look no further Should I say more? You should better check it out for yourself to know more! Have fun and enjoy shopping and such!
Am on my 34th weeks and 2nd day of my mommy-to-be journey. And another Obstetrics-Gynecologist/ Doctor's prenatal appointment later afternoon for my third trimester pregnancy. Another appointment, hoping for another ultrasound too. Last two appointments prior this time, nothing ultrasound unlike the other visits. Again, hopefully I can see my the baby-in-my-tummy tomorrow through it. I cannot wait. :-)
I currently experiencing tightening of my right slipper. You know that left food is bigger than right. Meaning this could be a sign of beri-beri which is normal for pregnancy. But I hope I won't experience it.
I said later afternoon by the way because it is already dawn time here in my end and of course it considers as already morning. This also means that I have to go to bed couple of minutes from now getting ready for later. And yep, it is fine if I have to wake-up late (hope DH would not demand of an early breakfast or else I am obliged to) because the appointment is 2:00 P.M. (the dental appointment was rescheduled to 26th of August and no biggie deal). After that, I have to go to store to buy a simple birthday gift for the daughter of my baby shower host for Sunday (too bad, I guess I cannot attend because it is not good for my situation, big tummy aside from the venue is a bit far, I just have to give something for the good friendship).
