Feeling ugly pregnant

Does anyone else feel super unattractive pregnant? I always thought I would glow and have this beautiful amazing pregnancy but my face is full of acne I’m so bloated , my face looks swollen especially my nose . I know it’s shouldn’t matter I’m growing a healthy baby but I feel like I just hate the way I look and I’ve never felt this gross. Also it sucks cause some women look gorgeous and stunning pregnant!! So jealous but how do you get through the feelings of being unattractive?

Therapy. Def something to talk about lol. Buying new clothes I like helps me. Washing my face more often helped with some pimples I got. It does matter how you feel though! Talking about it helps.

I feel the same way !! I always thought k was gonna have a pregnancy “glow” like i heard about but I’m just full of acne and super bloated all the time. I never want to go anywhere anymore because i just don’t feel like myself it’s so hard so i know how your feeling 🤞🏾

I have this same feeling about myself but everyone around me tells me I look beautiful and I’m glowing. But when I look in the mirror I don’t see it. At ALL so maybe it’s just we’re being hard on ourselves. Because I definitely don’t feel any better looks wise but everyone else says I do. Though I will say baby took all this fat all over and distributed it all just to the belly! Lol so now I look skinny In the face neck arms legs collar bones shoulders area etc

I 100% feel this way! I did just got an outfit at Kohl's that made me feel a lot better (for the time being) but I definitely feel frumpy and gross 99.9% of the time

Young mum

Hi guys,

I’m just wondering if there’s any other young parents that are getting further into their pregnancy and like, genuinely just clocking that I’m gonna be responsible for a baby and I don’t know everything their is to know about baby’s I feel like I’m gonna be so useless and accidently be the worst mum in the world 🫣

Does anyone else feel like this? Or felt like this? I’m 19 and genuinely have so much anxiety about this now I’m 20 weeks lol

So annoyed, dog jumped on me :( now I’m anxious

I have a big dog and she NEVER jumps.. today I came home and my mum was with me visiting and my dog must have just got over whelmed and she jumped and ended up scratching my lower back,

with that I’ve bent backwards almost and stretched my lower belly and it didn’t hurt as such just felt like tha shock ligament pain but ofc I haven’t actually bent that far since being pregnant and now I just feel anxious really and just need some reassurance. It only happened about 15 mins ago and I have felt baby a little since

But why is there always something to worry about!😭
