Ugh. Some of us find the ballooning and the "I'm eating for two" BS a bit disgusting. And you wonder why most women never get their pre-pregnancy bodies back. “Pack it on without guilt?” Ugh.

My friend said that when she started, total strangers suddenly felt free, and sometimes even *entitled*, to put their hands on her body. If she told them to stop touching her some of them got quite upset! Apparently being pregnant makes your body suddenly public property.. It’s not just actresses though.

While actresses do put their bodies out there to be scrutinized (as she does in FHM), something as incredibly personal and private like a pregnancy should be left the hell alone. And who is anyone to say that she "gained too much weight"? Unless they know her personally enough to know exactly how much she weighed before and how much weight she gained, they have no business commenting on it. Pregnancy should be off-limits in terms of the weight gain guessing game. Isla has a very valid point.

This is why she "looked fat". They make these things called maternity clothes. They're designed for the comfort of both the mother and the baby. Explore this concept, Isla.

Same as Kate Whatever-her-last-name-is. They want to look good AND intelligent by lying.. they don't realise that they don't do EITHER.

I understand what she means by people constantly making points about you when your pregnant though. Absolutely everyone regardless if you know them or not seems to feel they have to comment on your belly, hell even tough your belly. I was constantly getting remarks about how small mine was (at 5' and 105- gaining 15 lbs and having a tiny bump was a godsend to me personally..oh and I lost it all and never stepped foot in a gym- oooo thin bitch me). I'm a misanthrope and the last thing I wanted was people constantly reviewing my progress through pregnancy- it was really non of their damned business. I think she looked great when she was preg.

I gained 30 lbs. during pregnancy, lost 20 of it in 4 weeks and the rest when my son was 5 mos. old and I never hit the gym once. It is POSSIBLE that she has good genes and like her, I don't eat junk food either. Some people have to work really hard at keeping "slim" but why is Isla lying when she says she doesn't work out? @Kate- It is very possible that she didn’t hit the gym to lose all that weight.
