Oh Monnie, I'm glad you brought this up. I HATE the term "yummy mummy" and I think it should be consigned to the garbage bin along with its kissing cousin "bling bling".

Some of those so-called "yummy mummies" are starving themselves and exercising like mad and the bits they haven't been able to get rid of have been airbrushed out anyhow. It is just not desirable nor attainable.

I've had self-image issues all my life. I can see them now objectively but it is strange how they still raise their ugly heads from time to time. I just have to remind myself of what is realistic and what is just stupid. I never comment on another person's weight or appearance, apart from telling them they look great and I really mean it when I say that. To me, looking great is about so much more than weight and as another poster said, aren't all pregnant women beautiful anyway?
