I was talking to a friend asking me how I'm doing so far in my pregnancy, and honestly I feel great! 💕 Never had morning sickness, gaining weight appropriately, and aside from major fatigue I've really been enjoying being pregnant. But when I told her that I don't really care about the tiny stretch marks I've already gotten under my breasts and on my left thigh, she told me that I am "going to care" when I get farther along. 😕 I didn't reply after she told me to start using stretch mark creams, bc honestly they don't bother me. She is normally a very fit person (played sports in HS, likes regular exercise), so after she had her baby she had a hard time adjusting to her new body. But in my opinion, if they appear on my body as a result of growing a human life that I will love and <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glow.android.nurture">nurture</a> no matter what, then why should I care? Are there any ladies out there who also deal with this?? It just really bothers me that people think we should care about stretch marks after having a baby, when really they're mostly in spots that you wouldn't show off to everyone all the time anyways. 😑 I like to think I'm a generally confident person, but hearing this from a close friend just kinda hurts. Being a mother is all I've ever dreamed of, and if having a few tiger stripes is what it takes, then so be it. ✊🏻
