Pregnancy weight gain • feeling selfish

Tia

Hoping that there’s someone out there that can relate to what I’m feeling. I’m 27 weeks pregnant with baby #1. Thus far, i feel incredibly lucky to have had a pregnancy with little to no big symptoms. No morning sickness, no fatigue. I am heavily struggling mentally with weight gain. I feel so selfish because i know there are women out there that struggle with TTC and would give anything to have the weight gain with a healthy pregnancy. I started the pregnancy at 115lbs and at 27 weeks i have gained about 8lbs. I am 27 years old and for the first time I cringe every time i see a scale. When i step on the scale i am in tears. Can anyone relate to this? Have any opinions?
