19 weeks no bump :(
I'm 5'8" and was slightly overweight before pregnancy. I have a terrible self esteem and hate that I've now gained 10 pounds and no one can tell that I'm even pregnant. I have no bump what so ever and I come on here and see women with beautiful baby bumps from 12-16 weeks on... And I'm still waiting.
I feel like I'm being robbed of a huge aspect of pregnancy. I feel so disconnected from my pregnancy and like I have to prove to people that I'm pregnant by showing an ultrasound photo. I don't feel like my husband can connect either, he doesn't put his hand on me to feel the baby, because there's nothing to feel. When I go to an ultrasound ( I've had 3) I feel like I'm watching a movie of someone else's.
We've been taking bump photos and I just want to scrap the whole thing because it may not happen for me until I'm 7-8 months. So what's the point?
Why can't I enjoy pregnancy? Why can't I be pretty? Why can't I just be like everyone else?
