Husband has never seen my....

4th Trimester Bodies. They have an Instagram account and a website. I plan in posing for them if they come to Chicago after I give birth. If nothing else but to try to boost my confidence with positive uplifting messages.

I got married on December 2013 too!!!! Hehe well my husband loves my belly pokes and talks to it. He honestly doesn't care of the stretch marks he even rubs coca butter on them. Guys are weird I'm sure he would think nothing of it.

When my husband and I have sex, I almost always have on a shirt as well as make sure our room is as dark as possible. Now that I'm pregnant and have gained weight, I feel so gross...I just wish my damn stomach would go ahead and get round instead of fat(my stomach has always gone in where my belly button is). I even hate getting dressed in front of him...but he always tells me I'm beautiful and that it doesn't bother him even though I'm probably the biggest girl he's ever been with(he's a string bean). Before I got pregnant, I was 145. Now I'm 155 and just chunkier...I'm also 5'3". So trust me, I know where you're coming from as far as insecurity.

Pp you hit the nail on the head

Honestly men do not care. They dont give two s*** s about our flaws. In fact they often dont see anything we see until we constantly point it out. If you ask him what he sees after showing him your stomach he'll probably say a belly button.

Thanks for the support ladies. I hope I'm more confident with this pregnancy since he's the one who caused the damage lol he says it's no big deal and he's very patient with me which is great. I told a friend of mine this and she could NOT understand where I was coming from at all! I'm so glad y'all know where I'm coming from. Thanks :)

He obviously loves you.

I don't think a few tiger stripes will change that.

My SO actually likes them. But he better since its his fault I have them. All that Spanish food and 3 kids later. Lol

Damn I'm sorry you feel that way...I think its only a matter of time and you will find your confidence.. Either that or you will just say f it and get naked...I know how you feel though cause I dated a guy for two years before I met my new husband and I would never let him see my breast in the light cause of my stretch marks...but now I know who I am and I'm not afraid to show my true self to my husband cause I know he really loves me

Same thing here, my son messed my stomache up and gave me a bunch of stretch marks , they faded a lot ! But my stomach will never look the same ... He's seen my stomache once during an ultrasound but I'm sure by the time this pregnancy is over with he will have seen it a bunch and I'll be more comfortable with it

Hoping I don't get any new stretch marks with this baby .

I have tons of stretch marks from my first child and some lose skin to the point of me wanting a tummy tuck when were done having children! I also have the bikini cut scar from an ovarian ectopic pregnancy, I don't like it but I've learned to love my battle wounds!! Stretch marks are only because I housed a growing life and had to stretch to make room, the extra skin is cause that too so oh well I am and was a baby maker and it just happens sometimes :) maybe look at them as part of your child's life journey... The most important part, the Beginning!!!!

Try embracing them and remembering they are from a good part of your life so they shouldn't make you feel bad. At the same time I know the insecurity feeling my SO has no kids and has always dated small skinny ladies before me and I have had 3 kids and been as high as 350 pounds (lost most of it) but my body has been through a lot so it deserves a man who respects it all not worry of it's put down... Stretch marks are beautiful (IMHO) stay positive mama he loves you!! Maybe even more when you open up (when your ready) good luck mama stay strong!!!

I do understand where u are coming from. Although I have never been like that. I am pretty nervous tho. I am on my 2nd kid now. And single. Some time there will be a nice guy to come along and I dont wanna scare anyone off lol. Im good enough with that just with my personality. Lol.

It changed my life no joke.

I think I'll make a separate post recommending it

I get nervous about the stretch marks on my butt/boobs... SO loves them. He says they're beautiful. Lol. I'm sure your husband would say the same! You're a mom. You carried another human being in your body. Thats pretty amazing. Embrace the marks that came from it :)

See, I wish my husband was around when he saw me "normal" and see my body changing with my first pregnancy. When I met him, My body was already all outta whack. Lol I remember crying after my c-section after I saw my stomach and I cried so hard to the nurse saying "I'm never gonna let a man see me naked again!" The nurse just giggled and said "oh yes you are. Just wait" lol well.... I'm still waiting ! Lol

My husband has seen every inch of me....He's even seen my insides during my last csection lol.

We've been together since January 2013. We got married the same year. He's such a great guy but no guy has ever seen my stomach this way. He says he won't mind but it's hard to put it behind me.

Girl...I know how you feel. My husband told me that I needed to stop covering myself up and that he thought I was beautiful...I like him?

They love us..just the way we are. I know it's hard and I still struggle with it...but I'm trying not to be so self conscious.

How long have you guys been together? I'm sure he won't mind...I'm the same way lots of stretch marks all loose and stuff but I say if you love me you will love my saggy skin..lol I bet he will embrace it!
