We see other women who breeze through pregnancy and wonder how its “so easy” for them. I’m sure NO woman really “breezes” through pregnancy, though there is a wide spectrum of how we’re all affected. There’s shame and guilt put on pregnant women for what we eat, how much we exercise (or don't), what we wear... The web is full of “scary stories!” 😖 You could get that disease from eating this... Don't wear this fabric or you’ll have this go wrong.. Don't drink this drink or this complication will happen.. Maybe hating our bodies is the natural response to all the scrutiny and worry we place upon ourselves due to the stuff we see. Maybe it's not the actual stage of being pregnant we might dislike, but the sudden notion we’re subject to all this new judgment. Now, when I see a pregnant woman, I compliment her outfit, her smile and/or her accomplishments!! 🥳😊 I hope that this post brings some camaraderie, encouragement and community. It’s okay to struggle even in the joy of something so miraculous and beautiful because if you plan to be a mom or already are.. 🤰🏼we’ve been there or soon will. Currently pregnant, what I want more than anything is to feel like myself and if that means get out my two piece bikini 👙 and rock it on my baby-moon then so be it because why now that I’m pregnant should I have to wear something that make me feel less like myself, more frumpy and unconfident!! I just want to feel like myself in this time of rapid change. THATS IMPORTANT TO ME!!!! - QUESTION: 👇🏼 Is pregnancy a time when you feel beautiful? Do you feel the pressure to have some kind of elusive “glow”? Or are you longing to be pregnant even with the challenges? I’d love to hear from you in the comments about your experiences!!! #7months #pregnancy #thoughts #babybump」6月25日 2時09分
