My friends don’t understand my insecurities
So I’m gonna be a senior in high school this year and I’m gonna be 33 weeks pregnant tomorrow. When I start school I will be half a month away from my due date. But you see I’m kind of overweight so it’s not THAT noticeable that I’m pregnant.
And both of my friends are really petite and skinny and today they were looking really cute with their high waisted pants and everything and I say “I wish I could be cute and wear cute clothes.” And they go “you can.”
...
But to ME, I can’t. The only pants that fit me are the pants in the picture. And my hair has been getting more oily and my face has acne and my stomach doesn’t even look PREGNANT, it looks like fat. So that by ITSELF makes me insecure because people just think I’ve gained a ton of weight, but then if I tell the people at my school that I’m pregnant, they’ll judge me and call me a slut. (I’m having an open adoption btw) and I just can’t win in either scenario. So I tried explaining myself to them.
“But I can’t wear cute clothes because i phsyically can’t fit into any cute clothes.”
So my friend goes, “go to a maternity store.”
Maternity stores have cute clothes for ADULT WOMEN. I have a certain type of style and I can assure you, no one makes maternity clothes in my certain style. I’ve been wearing nothing but sweatpants and leggings and oversized shirts because I just can’t fit into anything/feel cute in anything. And my friends don’t seem to have any empathy for how I’m feeling :(
Sorry about the rant, im just feeling down and sad about myself.
