First time mom - Trying not to compare my pregnancy to others
Don’t get me wrong, I know every pregnancy is different and I shouldn’t compare myself to others pregnancy journeys.
Lately it’s been hard not to. I suppose this pregnancy isn’t what I thought. I don’t feel pregnant and I don’t think I look pregnant. I’m 25 weeks and I’m only feeling flutters still and I get upset when I see that others have been feeling their baby kick when they’re not as far along as me. I’m small but have a bit fat in my stomach and my stomach is still squishy - part of why I don’t feel pregnant or feel like I look pregnant. My stomach hasn’t popped or rounds out. It makes me feel like a terrible person because I shouldn’t feel this way about being pregnant. Lots of people can’t believe I’m 25 weeks and I suppose it’s upsetting.
I want to feel my baby kick and not just feel those flutters. I want to be excited to show off my pregnancy. I dont know, I think I just needed to vent because I’ve getting quite emotional about this😞
