terrified.
I am 27 weeks.
I am terrified of birth. I'm even more terrified of the aftermath of birth.
I've always had body issues. There's not a day I can remember that I had even the smallest positive outlook on my own body. That being said, I've started getting stretch marks. Little leopard spots below my belly button and all over my boobs. And my lady bits are just SO swollen.
I knew all of this was to be expected with carrying a child. But I'm so scared of the way my body and my lady bits will look afterwards.
I know it sounds selfish, like I'm creating a life and I should be focused on that, but I know I cannot be the only one so scared of what this beautiful blessing will do to my body.
