Pregnancy Weight Venting

This is very much a vent about vanity, but I just want to get it out somewhere.

So obviously you gain quite a bit of weight during pregnancy, not a surprise. But no matter how much I prepped myself for it, I am having the hardest time accepting it.

I’ve always been very small and straight, no curves and I love that look on myself.

Now my butt sticks out way too far, I’ve gotten some love handles, my thighs are rubbing against each other, and I’m just struggling to not cry every time I have to get dressed or when I try and look cute because I don’t feel cute. Like I was at a party tonight, had a lovely dress I picked for it, but I couldn’t even enjoy myself because I kept feeling my thighs rub or catching a glimpse of myself in a window or mirror and it’s just not what I’m used to seeing or feeling.

I’m telling my husband all of this and he says “aw boo, I love that big ole badonkadonk” 😫 SO the wrong thing to say.

I love that my body can make a baby, but I can’t wait to have my body back under my control.
