My girlfriend seems to have put on a lot of weight in the past few weeks, just on her bum, boobs, and belly. I can't help but think she is pregnant, which would be fantastic, but how do I broach the subject with her without her thinking she's fat?

awww...that's so sweet.
i say just let it go until she notices something. i'm sure at some point (if she is pregnant) she will notice her missed period.
As long as she is not smoking, drinking or eating unhealthy, there's no real risk to the baby (if she is pregnant)
if you must mention something, in case you are going crazy, mention her boobs. Something in the line of....."wow, i don't know if it's just me but your boobs are looking way bigger" ...and enjoy playing with them. and just in case she is pregnant, play nice, those things hurt in the beginning.

Hmm thats really a tough one because she would probably be hurt if you said it wrongly. Since you are obviously having sex then just tell her how happy you'd be if she got pregnant. I mean you would be happy right? If you would be just say that, and then ask her if she'd start taking pregnacy tests so you will both know when she's pregnant. That's the best answer I can give you on this, but make sure you act really excited about it.
OR
If she hasn't missed any periods then you shouldn't worry, also I know when I started dating my now husband I had started to put on some weight.

I agree with a couple of the answers notice her boobs and comment.
But be careful about being too excited if she is because if she's not ready for a child yet she may feel forced into having it before she's ready to please you.
Children are a wonderful addition when your ready, but if your not ready they can really put a strain on the relationship and life in general can seem so much harder. Also, if 1 partner wanted them and the other didn't there could be resentment with regards to having such a huge long term commitment.

If you're in a trusting relationship then just ask her out right. She may be worried about it and unable to broach to subject with you.
It might help if you also go with her to buy a testing kit.
It could also be that she feels settled with you and maybe she has put on a bit of weight.

Move to another country without telling her. After a few weeks, we will take a pregnancy test because she will know you might have figured out that she was and ran for the hills. Show up a month later, and use the excuse that you were kidnapped by terrorists. She will openly tell you about your new baby.

Well thats a hard one. First off she knows she is gaining weight. Any girl could realise it. But you being her bf you can show your concern and tell her,"honey I don't want you to think I'm calling you fat or anything. But you've put on weight and I'm thinking our pregnant. It would put me at ease if you took a pregnancy test",and if she comes out negative for being pregnant tell her she looks beautiful with her new weight and you love it.

I agree with bella. Tha's the best answer, in my opinion, especially about noticing the boobies first! and if you do play with them, take note if they are unusually sensative..
I dont agree with the coming out and telling her you would be excited if she was prego. In my mind, when my bf told me that, i put up my defences thinking "oh no, this guy is trying to trap me.."
of course, though, everyone is different.
I would stick to the nice boobies comment and she'll notice and may get concerned if she's missed a period.
when she IS pregnant, is the time to tell her you're excited/delighted and most of all, there for her and your babe.

just ask her, if you are in a good relationship then she should laugh it off if she's not. however within a few months of meeting my now hubby, i had put on half a stone, all on bum tum and boobs. we called it my contented plump, must be even more contented now though, cause we now have four year old, and i am a stone heavier than when we first met.
