Deodorants and breast cancer investigated
In great shape
When you're pregnant you have a pretty clear idea of what's going on inside: a few hiccups, heaps of kicking, the occasional somersault. But what about the lump outside? Does pregnancy make you feel sexy and serene - or more like a beached whale?


Check your body image with Fiona Gibson's revealing quiz.

1. How do you dress to accommodate your growing bump?
  I've stopped caring - anything giant-sized will do
  In my usual clothes (even with zips undone) for as long as humanly possible - so I still feel like me
  In sexy or smart maternity wear that's cut to flatter my shape
 
2. Are you eating for two or twenty-two?
  I'm enjoying relaxing the old diet rules - if you can't indulge when you’re pregnant, when can you?
  I'm trying to maintain good habits - who wants to be a lardy mum in baggy-bummed leggings?
  I'm eating so many biscuits, I've got repetitive strain injury of the jaw
 
3. Friends invite you on a big night out. Do you…
  Force yourself to go, even though the sofa is a more appealing prospect (you don't want them to think you're boring)?
  Look forward to being lavished with attention?
  Shudder at the thought of thin, non-pregnant people swigging alcohol - and politely decline?
 
4. Pregnant celebs never seem to endure puffy ankles, grouchy moods or a bump that spreads right round the back. How does this make you feel?
  Cross: it's just not like that in the real world
  Envious: with a mega budget and an army of assistants, you too could look that good
  Inspired: if Davina can glow with health during pregnancy, so can you
 
5. Your partner is feeling frisky. You’re tired, but could probably remain awake for 15 minutes or so. Do you…
  Take delight in the fact that you still feel sexual?
  Indulge in sex only if the light's off (you don't want him seeing your behind) and you're wearing a cover-all nightie?
  Go through the motions, just to convince yourself (and him) that you're still a normal human being?
