  You're pregnant...it is OK. You're going to gain weight.
  
  Cut yourself some slack, you're growing a human. Also, talk to your H if he is offending you.

  A few weeks ago my H told me he loved by "big little butt" - then tried to recover with "what?? I love your changing body!!" when I glared at him. I let him know it was *not* ok to comment on my size, no matter his intentions.

  
  

  
  

  He has not made a comment about my size since. I suggest talking to your H about how even the most innocent comments about your changing body can be hurtful. If he's not an ass, he'll STFU. Good communication is kind of essential for a functional marriage.

  I know how you feel, I just keep thinking this is temporary. I haven't gain much weight with my pregnancy, but my belly has grown. I can't see my feet any longer and it is difficult to put my work boots on. Random people keep telling me to drink room temperature water with lemon in it to get rid of the swelling.

  Has your doctor told you that you're gaining too much weight and your health or that of your child is at risk? 

  
  

  If not, STFU. You have a baby growing inside you and it's a goddamn miracle. Grow up.

  If you're so worried about being "fat," don't get pregnant. What did you expect to happen?
  
  Fun Fact: Your body goes through monumental changes during pregnancy.
  
  Stop whining and put on your big girl panties. Many women wish they could be in your position but can't for various reasons. smh.

  The other day my mom told me my boobs were huge n so was my belly ??? Some people think these remarks are cute WHY I DONT KNOW !!!! Your hormones make you more sensitive to things like this plus its hard to watch that scale go up and Up but keep in mind what a blessing pregnancy is !!! And ask your doctor if your gaining the healthy amount :)if this is issue for you then talk to someone dont just suck it up you could be suffering from depression .. Which very common in pregnancy and with help can be treated !!!
