Is anyone else dealing with this?

Question

Some days I wake up in a great mood then look at myself in the mirror and get extremely depressed. I've always been fairly confident in my looks but seeing my body change has hit me in ways I never thought it would. Everyone says I look just as great as I did before I got pregnant, but I know that can't possibly be true. I love my baby, but I'm starting to hate my body. I don't look like myself at all anymore and I don't know how to deal with it. Is anyone dealing with this? How can I make myself stop feeling this way?

Answer

You are all beautiful. There are different forms of beauty. Stay strong and get through this and you will be extremely proud of yourself for doing it. Nobody needs to look good to create a baby. Just keep healthy and take care of him/her and that is the most important and beautiful thing of all!

Answer

This is a great post. I feel the same way. Sometimes ups out number the downs. Sometimes vise versa. I remind myself in down times how beautiful of a miracle it is that God makes a living soul to grow and form inside of our bodies! How wonderful! How amazing! Praise God from whom all blessings flow! :-)

Answer

I feel the same way. I know I'm not overweight or anything, but it definitely gets to me certain days. I'm also suffering from horrible hormonal acne, nothing I try is helping, and I just feel so gross. My baby girl is worth it, of course, but it still is hard. We can get through this❤️

Answer

I feel the same way and everyone tells me I still look cute, but I have a hard time. I just remind myself it's all for a great reason! :)

Answer

I get this some days.. Some days I struggle to find something to wear where I'll break down and cry (and I'm in no means overweight or anything) I just feel icky those days, other days I have no problem and feel great!
