Feeling depressed and insecure about my bump and body
I'm trying to not have this be a pity party post. I'm just curious if theres anyway I can stop thinking so negatively or just any advice in general would be good right now.
I am basically 25 weeks pregnant but from the beginning I was super bloated and just way bigger for how far along I was. I chalked it up to bloating but I've just gotten bigger and bigger. I met a girl at work that was 28 weeks and way smaller than me. I know every pregnancy is different but it's just really weighing on me.
I am tired of telling people how far along I am cause I get the "wooooww I thought you were further along." Or "wow your big!" Well no shit. One girl thought i was a month away from giving birth...
It makes me feel so self consious and my boyfriend doesnt seem interested in touching my bump. The only times is when I pull his had over to feel the baby kick. He seems disconnected and doesnt seem to want to feel the baby move or have anything to do with me. He says hes excited for the baby and tells me everything is fine. So maybe I have expectations of how I thought he would react or feel and maybe that's not fair. Idk.
I just don't feel beautiful or sexy or anything. pregnancy has made me break out in pimples everywhere. I'm really huge and have gained half my anticipated total pregnancy weight. Cant fit hardly any of my clothes. And the clothes I can arent super cute just plain Jane kinda clothes.
Sorry for the long post :/ just needed to get all these thoughts put of my head. My anxieties have been really bad lately. I just dont know how to feel good about myself. Anyway sorry for the long rant but needed to just vent this out. Thank you for reading if you've made it this far!
