Struggling with people commenting on my body
I’m 38w pregnant and have gained minimal weight due to severe hormonal reflux almost my entire pregnancy. Now that I’m at the end of my pregnancy everyone keeps commenting on how I’ve “kept my figure” and “will look mighty fine after baby is born”. I couldn’t care less about my appearance or weight, I would have given anything to be able to eat anything that wasn’t plain unseasoned food, and to have not struggled to nourish my body. All I’m hoping is that as soon as baby is out I can work on gaining some weight back and eat enough to breastfeed successfully.
I just want to scream at my well meaning friends that my appearance/weight means nothing to me. Who cares about staying thin in pregnancy! I just want baby and I to both be healthy. Thank you for letting me shout into the void, I’ve been feeling like such a dick for being so mad about it.
