Do you have good posture?
I used to have great posture but feel like being pregnant, this belly weighs me down and my posture has definitely suffered.

I have terrible posture, made even worse by pregnancy. I slouch all the time.

I did, then I got pregnant, then I breast fed for 12+ months. I'm working on it but its tough!

@Pepper: Is it something you've always been aware of? Tried to correct? I became aware of posture really early on in life. Kind of weird, but my friends were all in ballet and would tell me how important posture was, and so I worked hard to make myself have good posture even though I wasn't in ballet (weirdo kid right here!)
@Mrsjets: You mean to tell me that after I give birth I still have to look forward to bad posture through breastfeeding! waaah! lol

@.twist.: I think I was lazy about it in the beginning - I'm going to make an effort to be more posture aware next time!

Not really, but I try. I have big boobs, and I'm pregnant, so I probably look like a midget version of the Hunchback of Notre Dame.

@.twist.: Yes, I'm very aware of it! I really notice how I slouch when I look at pictures... I make a conscious effort to stand up straight in pictures now. Using the computer has ruined me, I think! I slouch at my desk all day long.

It's been really bad since I got pregnant. I've always tried to have decent posture....but I'm so weight heavy in front right now that it's just not happening

Not really. It crosses my mind every few minutes at work since I'm in a chair. But I hunch a lot.
We have desks that move up/down to stand or sit so it's nice to take breaks between the two.

No not really. I have better posture when I'm walking and standing up, but sitting I look terrible.

no. i have a screwy spine though- a reverse curvature in my neck that has calcification fusing it that way, a floating chip out of a disk in my back, and one hip is higher than the other which causes an S curve in my back. when i went to a chiropractor for the first time & had x-rays done, he was horrified.

Not really. It's not great but not terrible when I am walking or standing, but sitting it's terrible. I have a weak core and upper back and it's caused back problems for me, so I'll get on a kick and do all my PT exercises and it really helps... then I get lazy.
Now pregnant I feel like I'm just walking around with my belly out all the time and obviously you can't really hold your stomach in!

No I have terrible posture. I slouch or hunch even when I'm standing or walking! Oddly, I have a very strong core, but I just naturally slouch I guess. I blame it on the fact that I have a petite frame with big boobs, so they pull me forward, LOL. But really, when I'm walking around, they do strain my back unless I'm wearing a sports bra.
