Did your SO become less attracted to you after giving birth?

Question

I saw this and it upset me. I love the way my body looks and I can only imagine what my body is going to look like after I give birth and honestly it scares me. I won't regret having children but I don't want to experience the sever body changes that might happen because I don't want to look unattractive  to my SO or myself. Am I selfish for feeling this way.

Answer

That guy is a jerk.  Not only are his expectations unreasonable (90% of women have stretch marks in some form or fashion), but she got them doing something beautiful.

Answer

This is one of the reasons why I never want kids. However, stretch marks are not something to be ashamed of. Any woman who goes through those agonizing 9 months and then the excruciating birthing process DESERVES those stripes.

Tony the Tiger style. Fur shizzle.

Answer

My hubby can't keep his hands off me and loves me even more. Me on the other hand hate my body but he adores it

Answer

Luckily I didn't get stretch marks. But my husband found me way more attracted after giving birth to our daughter. He loved when I was pregnant. He thinks pregnancy is beautiful.

Answer

Umm I have stretched marks and I never had a child but my bf loves me and my body.

Answer

When I was with my ex I wanted to marry him and create a beautiful family. After much crying and pleading, he told me he didn't want me to get pregnant because then he would be "stuck with a fat whale". Thus the term "ex" my SO loves me the way I am now and we have talked about when I'm pregnant and he will rub my belly and such. He already had 2 children so he knows the toll it will take on my body.

Answer

My husband doesn't care about stretch marks because it was part of the package when we started dating years ago. He still kisses my stomach and he'll rub his hands over my stomach.

Answer

This guy is scum. That woman may have stretch marks but she looks like she's in magnificent shape to have just had a baby. Some women gain over 60lbs while pregnant. A lot of them don't get it off until years later as well!
