Ok so I am currently 18 weeks pregnant. I was size 18 when I became pregnant. I was just wondering some of the differences between a "normal" and a plus size pregnancy?? Like is there any differences in when you feel the baby moving.. just stuff like that, if anyone happens to know.

" I am a plus sized girl for sure, was a size 16 before I got pregnant. I still fit in a lot of my pants and clothes, but I have gained like 15 lbs. I am 23 weeks and I feel the baby move often but some days more than others.It all depends on the baby also. My blood pressure has been perfect but I have been gaining more weight than I want to. They want you to gain less weight if you are already overweight/obese. "

" I thought I felt small movements around 20-22 weeks, but I didn't feel anything big until about 24 weeks (I'm 26 weeks now). Even still I don't feel the baby all through the day. Sometimes I feel nothing until I lay down to go to sleep. I just saw my OB and she says this is normal because of my weight. I was SO sick in the beginning that I lost about 30 pounds and still I'm losing a pound here and there and can't seem to gain. I was told as long as I am eating and drinking like I should be that it's okay/normal. "
