Self esteem
Ive just got to vent I think. I’ve been struggling hard with self esteem this pregnancy. It’s been hard. Since about 10 weeks I’ve had PUPPS rash it started off small, just on my thighs. It didn’t really bother me too much, just stopped me from wearing a swimsuit. Now I’m 26 weeks and the rash has littered my body. It’s all over my arms, legs, and stomach, it looks so bad I’m constantly covered up. And it’s sucks, I live in Hawaii, it’s too hot to be 100% covered. I work in a busy salon too, if I’m not covered up my clients see the rash all over my arms 😭 I see them looking. It’s so uncomfortable😭😭 Then my stomach is plastered in stretch marks already. I see all these cute ‘bumpies’ or bump photos and I cannot help but to compare myself to those photos. I look gross, I feel gross. I look like there’s something wrong with me and I hate it. The weight gain has not fazed me at all, I love having my bump. But I just cannot stand to look at myself in the mirror unless I’m covered.
