its all in our heads lol @t.t.marie I was 145 size 6 jeans nice and thick but skinny where I wanted to be so tiny waste and big butt and thick hips.. well now I got thick thighs and hips a juicy big butt and boobs.. I've Gaines at 10 pounds so far I carry my weight well to begin with. I can hate myself looking in the mirror before make up hate it right after I'm done but 5 minutes later I can be feeling myself and be all cocky.. idk its a chick thing

@charleerose, I'm exactly the same!!! I was down to a size 5 jeans and small in tops and weighed 135 until I found out I was pregnant. I already gained like 20 lbs since August, I'm mostly belly but I'm definitely bloated all over!! I don't drink a lot of water, so I'm sure I'm retaining water in my face, neck, arms, and legs, but apparently I'm the only one who's noticed it.

@t.t.marie, I definitely have issues with gaining weight. I had lost the amount I wanted and I was finally so happy I then found out I was pregnant.. so this has been hard on me since I see myself as huge and really I'm still skinny everywhere else. thankfully carrying all belly. I'm definitely the biggest critic to myself. my boyfriend made a rule that I can't say negative things anymore he gives me once a day with him next to me to say what I want then reassures everything I had said isn't true and all the gushy lovey dovey stuff lol

@charleerose, thanks love!! i am particularly hard on myself, but I'm trying to remind myself that what my body is doing is miraculous and I'm lucky to be going through it. you're gorgeous too, so don't be so hard on yourself either!! although I know that's much easier said than done lol.

@t.t.marie, you're gorgeous so just remember that even when you feel low you may be seeing yourself different because of your thoughts

I've done that and he just kept complimenting me and wiping my tears @t.t.marie I obviously let him in eventually so he could cheer me up

hahahaha my boyfriend knows better too because I'll lock myself in the bathroom and cry hysterically all day @charleerose

well I try to fit lol a lot of it doesn't but I try. my yoga pants fit my t-shirts don't cover my belly all the way Haha but yeah self esteem was an issue before being pregnant but now its like very touchy. my boyfriend joked about me not being cute I was totally being obnoxious because my make up looked good and I was joking about how great I looked and he said "not" and I almost cried then he got a little smirk and said "not cute, you're adorable" totally saved himself from a total melt down Lmao @t.t.marie

@charleerose, you're lucky your old stuff still fits!!! some of mine does, most of my tshirts and yoga pants, but I just blew $200 on new clothes from motherhood because I just keep getting bigger!! good to know I'm not the only one facing the self esteem struggle lol!!

@t.t.marie, omg I look like poop until I actually do my make up. underneath that hat is a mess called my hair lol I just through on a hat and winged the outfit. I purposely try harder on my make up and hair to feel like myself too. the struggles of being pregnant but still wanting to look bomb😂 I try to still fit in my normal clothes even though I have maternity I would rather struggle with my normal stuff lmao

aww you're such a cutie!!! ever since I got pregnant I look like a big bag of crap 😂😂😂 I'm glad I'm not working because I seriously spend like 2 hours on my appearance every day now just to feel more like myself!!! they say girls steal their beauty from their mommys, so this kid better be stunning lol
