Stretch marks 😔

My stretch marks have never bothered me. This is my 3rd pregnancy and Tuesday my (female) OB pointed them out 🤦‍♀️ I have felt so self conscious since then 😔 I’m almost 33 weeks and met with my specialist yesterday who checked the baby’s weight. My regular OB is hoping I make it to 36 weeks so her lungs are developed and they can avoid steroids and a NICU stay (I have a history of severe preeclampsia) I’ve only gained about 14 lbs and yesterday we found out that baby girl weighs 5lbs and 12 oz at less than 33 weeks! It’s nice to know that most of my weight gain is in my uterus, but I still can’t even look at my belly now. I know it’s stupid and probably just hormones, but why, of all people, especially after diagnosing me with antenatal depression, would my own dr point that out?!
