struggling

Candice • Married, step son. Pregnant with #1
I'm 25.2 weeks pregnant I didn't realize how hard the body image insecurity would hit. My clothes That fit last week, don't anymore. I know that I am growing a tiny human. But I couldn't help looking in the mirror at my body that I just tried to squeeze into my jean shorts, and a t shirt and cry. Anyone else have this? I know I'm probably just being emotional. But it's a struggle

Candice, I can't explain to you how close to home this hits for me. I'm only 6+3, and truth be told I stress out a lot about my weight and how my body looks. I finally got down to a weight I was comfortable with, but after fertility meds I gained 10lbs.  I'm terrified that I'm going to miss out on happy times in my pregnancy because of how I feel I look. I want nothing more than this baby, but I can't get out of my own head about this. I wish I had words of encouragement, but I can only tell you you're not alone and your feelings are valid.
