I am 22 and weigh 190lbs at only 5’3”. I know i’m overweight but I never felt like I looked super big. Most people tell me I carry it well and look kinda “chunky”. I’m a FTM so i’m super concerned about how much weight gain is safe for baby and if i’ll even have a bump. My mother said most women don’t pop till later in pregnancy and since i’m overweight it might not happen for me till around 8 months but that i could probably begin working out to lose weight if I want to pop sooner. Has anyone dealt with anything like this? Should i be trying to lose weight right now?
