Tired of not feeling sexy

I went and got my legs waxed and a full Brazilian. Sure it hurt like a Mofo for a day or two, but now I feel great. What else have you mammas been doing to feel sexy during pregnancy?

Re: Tired of not feeling sexy

  • I'm glad you're feeling better about yourself!

    I don't really feel like a baby bump is any less sexy, so I haven't really done much out of the ordinary. It does help that DH tells me I'm beautiful a lot. I wear flattering clothes that show off the bump and makeup, and that's about it.

    I might try to focus on the beauty of becoming a mother. And tell DH how you're feeling (a little pampering may go a long way). That will help you through!

  • I've been keeping up with my mani/pedi schedule. I usually get nails done, then two weeks after that I get a mani/pedi, and so on. I had stopped in the beginning of the pregnancy because I wanted to save money, but I found that I was just spending that money on other stuff and not saving. The massages are nice, and I feel prettier keeping up with them.

    Once LO comes, that may fall to the wayside.

  • Feeling sexy isn't really important to me during pregnancy, or outside of pregnancy.  But, to feel good about my appearance in general I've invested in some great pregnancy clothes that make me feel professional and well put together despite the bump.

  • My DH has been telling me that I look so cute pregnant so I haven't really felt unsexy.  I try to wear clothes that really emphasize my belly.  He's told me I look cute more in the last few months than he has since we started dating.  I guess I'm going to have to stay pregnant all the time to get some compliments.  When I have called him out on it, he says that he shouldn't have to tell me I'm pretty because I should already know that I am.  Obviously, he doesn't understand that females need to hear this in order to believe it.
  • I love to take a bath (in my shallow stupid tub) with pink salts then slather myself in lotion.

  • I have been keeping up with my hair appointment more regularly. Before I would go 6 months to a year before I would get my hair done. Now I am on an 8 week schedule!  It helps to maintain control over one part of my body.

    Also, I worked a good bit of overtime and I plan to get a massage as a reward. It is not about feeling sexy but feeling good about myself in general.

  • Honestly I feel the sexiest when I'm pregnant. The fullness of being pregnant and your body doing what it was designed to do. It's amazing.

    You are creating a person flaunt it!

  • Right now I feel too tired to be sexy, however, I did put make up on yesterday (that made me feel pretty). 


     


  • Y'all are inspiring me! We leave for vacation tomorrow and I will try extra hard to make an effort every day to look good. The thing I do to feel sexy is staying active. Walking, biking, and doing yoga so I feel good.

  • I went and got it done because even though my hubby says I'm super sexy, to me, I want to feel sexy. I have felt great since doing it and a pedicure is next.
