Upset about their body changing??!!

Question

Hey, I am 32 weeks and I have been struggling a lot with my changing body. I have started getting stretch marks and every time I see myself I just break down and cry. I'm scared that my partner won't find me attractive. Now and after the birth. I fear that my body will never look the same again and I will always hate myself. Has anyone else been dealing with this!? I feel so alone.

Answer

Me ✋! I'm 29 weeks and I haven't gained a lot of weight but I have stretch marks, and I hate them. I feel like I look awful, even though my husband keeps telling me that he thinks I'm beautiful and sexy, I don't feel that way. It's hard, and I'm hoping that eventually I'll feel better about my changing body.

Answer

I can't relate. I have always been underweight and it's so strange to have a roll under my breast, to loose my waist line. It's weird and I'm amazed. I'm loving it to be completely honest. My husband loves it too. He tells me daily how beautiful I am and the chemistry between us has grown stronger with the life we created growing inside me. Nothing about my life or my body will ever be the same again. I'd like to get my belly back and I'll try but I have no expectations. My body is performing a miracle right now and it's amazing.

Answer

I have. Even though yes it is worth it, still doesn't change the fact that I feel that way. Right there w yaaa <3
