Fed uo!!!!

I sound ridiculous but does anybody else feel really fat, ugly and unattractive?  My hair's crap, my skin's never been great and I feel so horrible at the moment,  my boobs have got smaller if anything and when me and my partner had intercourse yesterday I just felt not into it because of how im feeling and is it just me or do some of you ladies feel as though your muscles down below have become a tad slacker in third trimester?  And to top it all off my daughter just called me ugly (she's 9) she didn't say it maliciously she just said it kind of jokingly and said I look like my dad and he's beautiful!  So I sent her to bed for been rude and now I am just crying in bed (how pathetic) I can't stop I just feel like some of my identity is creeping away from me and my partner is going off me! Fed up *sorry about the rant* ha

I know I will get over it I just thought my daughter would never say something like that! Especially when you spend every bit of money making sure they have what they need while you rarely buy anything for yourself!  Really tempted to go out and get my hair done and a new outfit tomorrow with her halloween costume fund, that'll teach her ;-) I'll make her a mask of my face for halloween haha. It was just the  tip of the iceburg I know she would be upset to think she has upset her mummy. Thanks for the empathy ladies and I hope all of you feel better about yourself sooner rather than later!

Oh honey.... You are not alone.  I feel like a whale also.  I gained five pounds in a week. Im only 23 weeks and Ive had it.  My face looks like a teenage boy going through puberty, makeup is not an option.  I feel like an imposter in my own closet. I have a very attractive husband and I'm starting to feel like maybe he isn't attracted to me.  of course he tells me I'm crazy,  but I definitely feel like you and I have 17 more weeks ahead.

I agree I've been feeling very unattractive also. I feel super fay and always out of breath. I guess it's a temporary feeling but some days it's just brutal with the emotions.

I think its totally normal! I feel the same exactway ssome days. I was never one to wear makeup but now that I feel like a whale half the time and my face is broken out in acne I wear make up some days and do my hair up nice and try to put on an outfit (pregnancy fitting) that makes me feel pretty and my mood lifts a bit. I'm also in my third trimester (30 weeks 3 days). so maybe you can try some of those things? other than that just remember its temporary. once that beautiful baby is born youll lose the weight & alla those not so great pregnancy symptoms.hope i helped a little
