I feel so fat 😭
Currently 15+3 weeks pregnant with twins. I started out a lil overweight which always had me a bit self conscious, but I had a nice figure and still felt cute. Then, the morning sickness and food aversions actually had me lose a lot of weight in my first trimester (27lbs!). I am working with a nutritionist to make sure I stay healthy and get my babies all the nutrients they need, plus putting in a lot of effort to exercise and meal prep and generally live a healthier lifestyle for me and my kids. I was starting to look my best in years and feel great! Now my belly is starting to pop out like crazy, but I don’t look pregnant. I feel like I just look fat. It’s absolutely destroying my confidence. I know I should be more lenient with myself because of course our bodies change in pregnancy, but it’s draining to see all the effort I put in to look good and feel healthy as a mama not even matter. I don’t think my bump looks cute, I don’t like wearing any of my new maternity clothes, I just want to hide under a rock and cry until I either look obviously pregnant or until the babies are here. There has to be a better way to cope with this feeling, and I am all ears for any tips and tricks you ladies might have. Thanks 🙏
