I am just beginning week 29 of my first pregnancy :)clap:). My husband and I are expecting a baby boy due July 5th.

Pre-conception I was approx. 117 lbs, 29 wks later, I'm still to hit 130 lbs, yet my OB is very happy with my health, baby's health, etc.

But I am literally only belly, that's it. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, else has gotten any biggers, boobs, butt, thighs, etc. My concern is due to my bosom not getting any bigger, that I may not be able to adequately produce enough breastmilk to keep up with my baby's demand when he's born. Has anyone else ran into this problem?

You are so lucky!! I gained 70 lbs with my last one. I started out at 150 and when I went to deliver, I was 220!!!!! I am hoping to do better this time. I would love to be all belly!
CONGRATULATIONS:hug:

I know what you mean.
Pre-conception I was 120lbs, and at 6 months, I'm only 135lbs.
I still get people saying to me: "You hardly look pregnant at all!!"
Like you, I was a little worried about my/baby's health, but the OB is happy with it - and I've heard with your first, you still have your ab muscles, so you tend to show less then with your second. :)

Congrats!!
We're due Aug 6th!

Peace,

I weighed 107 before my first i gained 50 lbs! And you could notice a bump with in the first 3 week! With my second I started at 112 and gained 65lbs! This time I looked pregnant right away (hadn't last all baby weight form first) pp would ask me if I was having twins, or would come up to me at Wal Mart and say "looks like that babies going to drop right out of there, when I was only 6 months along.( Was carrying very low) And so on... Each time it did get more noticeable right away!!
