self conscious/ esteem

[nal103m9]

Just been feeling low lately regarding my body, dont get me wrong i love dressing cute and people compliment me, but my dept. is no longer feeling attractive for my husband. I just feel like that because sex seems difficult and four play is awkward since theres a belly popping out... not to sure if theres a question here or just looking to see if im the only one. And i still have less than 3months to go ! Ive talked to him before about it, he doesnt think im ugly. .im beautiful...just pregnant,  so ya sex is difficult :/

Don't worry for reals I don't think any girl in here has a coca cola bottle figure right now. I'm sure your hubby isn't complaining about the breast growing hehe.
My hubby said pregnancy is sexy.. I guess!  Oh well I'll be running like crazy to melt as soon as I can after all the baby process.

I've been having the same self-esteem issues, and worrying about the whole sex thing lately.  I'm thinking it's hormones because last week, I was all thinking to myself how much I love being pregnant with the belly and the weight (I'm naturally small so I really dig the curves that come with it) and now this week, I try getting dressed and I wanna cry because nothing looks good on me.  My husband says the opposite of course.  He joked the other day about having to put me on suicide watch because I have to wear athletic/sweatpants now lol  But it definitely ain't just you, chic.  Nope.  I feel your pain to the max.

Thabkyou so much ladies,  i feel much better knowing im not the only one or being crazy. It hasnt gotten better and i agree and understand with everyone's posts. Im.now 36wks and im a no go on sex, and yes just want it for the cervix and to ''loosen"it up in prepfor labor: ) hes never been the sex drive one,.its always been me, so thats comforting in a way, but i also agree with the non desire part of him looking at me and not being turned on...and yet he can go do the man thing and take care of himself? ... well who knows, a part of me gets bothered by that idea, but mostly not, because im not even trying,  its just not intimate or fun.  Oh the things we women do :) thanks again

I feel the same way. My fiancé doesn't want to have sex with me anymore. I don't feel ugly exactly but I don't feel sexy. People are always like oh you look beautiful dont be silly! But pretty and beautiful are not the same thing as being sexy and a turn on to your significant other. I don't think he thinks I'm gross or anything but I don't think he looks at me in a sexual way at all now. And that's upsetting to me. Sex is an important part of a relationship and now I feel like he's getting off by himself thinking of other girls and prob watching porn and it really hurts my feelings and makes out relationship vey strained. I'm 39 weeks today and I just keep hoping that its going to be the day, but the days keep passing and last Friday I wasnt even dilated at all :( I can't wait to feel like my old self!

My husband is all for having sex and always tells me how beautiful I am but I still feel huge and unattractive. Not to mention sex is so uncomfortable and painful right now as I will be 40 weeks tomorrow. I wish I could tell you you will start feeling better about yourself but I have only gotten worse. I'm jus ready to hold my baby in my arms and eventually get my body and confidence back.

I feel the same way. Im so happy that im pregnant but my body is just changing so much so I cconstintly feel unattractive and just huge but I will say my boyfriend is very supportive and trys to make me feel better and I feel bad because when it comes to sex its just awkward and im not into it as much  right know..  good luck

Oh I'm going to be the crazy lady that says all the raunchy stuff lol.  There are some great positions for having sex while pregnant that will make you feel sexy, comfortable and him in control and downright hot.  Also whatever your body type go out and buy the maternity dress that you think you could never wear.  You know the one it's form fitting and the he belly pops right out.  Then throw it on and wear it food shopping or to buy baby clothes anywhere but just around the house.  It's important to take care of you while pregnant and that will be great for baby too.  Happy momma happy baby!!  It's a eat of faith I know but you will start feeling good about you and hubby will remember why he got you all pregnant to begin with.  You're just that irresistible.

Oh sweetie, maybe that's the hormones making u feel that way, I think a pregnant woman is the most beautiful thing ever, that's why I'm taking advantage of it lol, honestly, I get more compliments now than before I was pregnant

[ready2pop]

I COMPLETELY feel the same way! I dont even want sex anymore bc I feel so ugly all the time. How can i be sexy if I dont feel sexy, ya know. And sex iant even intimate anymore bc its so uncomfortable,  all I want is for him to *** to loosen my cervix and get it over with.  I feel so bad, with my sex drive being so low, but I feel like he doesnt find me attractive either.. everyone says pregnancy is a beautiful thing, yes, it is, but I feel like its way more beautiful when its not me.
