DH says its a bump, but I say I look fat.....

SheLovesMrHip · May 2011

Ok, so I will try to pip next week when I am actually dressed. I am really having bump depression. I just feel like I look like I hit up a buffet. DH and entire fam say I am nuts! I went to get a pedi and another pg gal sat next to me who clearly looked pg. I mean I knew she was further along then I but she just looked so pretty. All the ladies were asking her questions and smiling about her baby. I turned to her said "at least you look pg, I just look fat". Everyone around me then said "you are pregnant??" See what I mean....I just look fat!!!!

Bumping from my droid........

I'm sure it's not as bad as it seems. We are always our worst critics. To be perfectly honest, I'm not going to care whether people think I look fat or pregnant, I'm just so thankful to have a healty growing baby in there.

I'm sure you look great! You will probably really start showing in the next few weeks. You look tiny from your siggy pics so I'm sure you will have a perfect round bump!!

Yes well this, but I have always struggled with body image.....it is a very hard subject and one that was actually brought up on my BMB. I know we are harder on ourselves then other people, but it is a battle that some of us deal with more so then others...

Thanks for the kind and supportive words though!

I obsess about this too. Our cute bumps will come, it just takes some time. I'm getting sick of being patient though!

Edit: awkward wording

I am sure you look lovely! We are always so hard on ourselves. I think people just don't want to assume so they don't make a fool of themselves.

This. I went from 0 - bump around week 15. As cflocco said, you are tiny, I bet you will be all belly!

Thanks guys, I am just going through a super rough spot right now....my SIL keeps trying to call me with advice but I really can't stand her, we have super bad history and she keeps forgeting she caused it....I refuse to take her advice because she will use it against me as she has in the past. I just feel so bleh and have zero motivation to get dressed.....so I am very down on mysef right now. Crying
