I am 31 weeks into my second pregnancy, and I must admit I am concerned about what it may do to my body. I came out of my first pregnancy almost completely identical to my prepregnancy body. I was slender, but not skinny, I didn’t get a single stretch mark on my tummy or breast. I had no saggy skin, the only thing was maybe an extra 10 pounds, but not enough to complain. I did breastfeed, but for only 6 weeks because I had to go back to work. I’m just curious to hear what pregnancy number two done to your bodies or was it about the same as the first time.
my first baby i gained close to 40 pounds and i felt more beautiful after i had my baby than i did before. my second one i have gained about 20 pounds and i’m overdue. the second pregnancy hasn’t been near as bad as the first. i got stretch marks with the first one so since my skin had already been stretched from the first time then it didn’t stretch the second time. we’ll see how i look and feel after this birth though. good luck to you.
It was different for me. With my first, I went back to my normal pre-pregnancy size but I had gained a lot of weight during pregnancy so I got some stretch marks on my hips and breasts. My second pregnancy, I didnt gain too much and I didnt get any new stretch marks. I lost the weight and I looked even better than I did before ever getting pregnant the first time. The only complaint I had was my breasts. I breastfed both times and they got smaller each time my milk dried up. Its now 10 years later and Im 36 weeks pregnant with #3. No stretch marks or anything. Dont worry, if youre first pregnancy went well, then you must have really good genes and you’ll look just as good this time….especially since you are 31 weeks already! Good luck to you and congrats
#2 was the same as #1 – I have had 4 children and am identical to prepregnancy self, except I did get stretch marks.
My 2nd baby weighed 9 lbs 11 oz, so that was a lot of the 30+ lbs I gained with her! I breastfed all mine for 8-12 mos each and there was no real difference between having #1 and #4. I’m sure you’ll be fine!
