At the moment i am almost 22 weeks pregnant.. (i think? lol)
i HATE how my belly looks
its not even hard, its still really flabby - some people dont even realise im pregnant they just think ive put on weight!!!
i hate how it looks without clothes on (thats why all the photos i have posted have been one's with a top on).
When i wear a top at least it looks at little bit round.
Somedays i dont even want to leave the house.
i look at photos from my last pregnancy and i think i looked great!! not this time though!!
STUPID UGLY STRETCHMARKS.
that is all, thanks for listening.
hey babe, dont stress I think you look fine, your FAR from fat, i feel the same i feel fat but its rounded so i know its not fat but im fat all over YOUR NOT
Hi Laura,
i think that we have so many unrealistic media pictures of perfect mums (who have personal trainers, chefs and sly tummy tucks after) that we think we should look perfect like that too. If you look at everyone here with no top on you would see LOTS of stretch marks and flubby skin trust me. I have been pretty slim but have retained a belly since my second baby so I have had lots of people ask me if I am pregnant when I wasn't!!! With my last baby at 20 weeks people were asking how many days I had left!! So if you are small enough to not look mega pregnant at this stage you are doing a fabulous job. I bet you are beautiful - just think of the wonder and forget about reaching for unrealisitc goals. In the end you just want you and your bubba to be healthy.
Stay strong and feel beautiful!!
Laura, I know how you feel although I just feel huge and already have people asking when I am finishing up work and I have 4 months to go!! Some days I just look fat and other I look enormously pregnant so we can't win.
Oh sweety! You're growing your little baby girl in there, be proud of how you look..... it's the most beautiful thing being pregnant.... I bet you look more beautiful than you realise
I have stretch marks too..... Bio Oil & Palmers Butter did NOTHING for me but who cares... it's a sign we're going to be wonderful mummies
Oh Laura, I know exactly how you feel! My belly just looks fat - I certainly don't look pregnant... not at all . I already had a fat belly before I fell pregnant , so now it just looks like I have a bigger fat belly. I've been waiting almost 24 weeks to look pregnant, and I'm still waiting.
Im just hating how I look in general. I don't look pregnant, although JUST starting to poke out a little (so where has the 10 kilos I've put on gone...........). Mainly on my boobs and tummy, so I look fat and large. I am starting to get alot of looks and comments......
I know it's pregnancy, but I hate the feeling at the moment. Actually I hate how I look from here on in until after bubs arrives. My boobs are SOOOOOOO big and I am embarrassed. Anyway, trying to focus on the miracle inside and just camoflauge myself!!!!!!!
So I hear you Laura!!!! You're not alone! xoox
Laura: I hear you love, are your stretchmarks purple? cause mine are...yuck. My belly was looking fat for a while but finally at 25 weeks, I look pregnant...although being a bigger girl, I guess sometimes people wonder. Just keep that loving feeling about being pg and before you know it, people will tell you I actually feel very bad, one of the girl came to my yoga class and she has NO tummy and is 21 weeks, I felt so bad about commenting afterwards, I'm sure she gets it all the time, I will apologise next week.
