bullying by parents/step parents

Okay now im a big girl and my weight has always been an issue. But since ive gotten pregnant my stepmom wont stop putting me down. She keeps telling that this baby Is going to ruin my figure forever and I'm never gonna lose weight. It didn't bother me till about three weeks ago. I'm starting to show!! Everyone can see my bump but she keeps telling me its just cause im a big girl that ill never have a baby bump. Its starting to really get to me. She's telling me I'll never feel her move with my hand and nor will my husband. I'm a fist time mom I'm 22 weeks and weigh 215 lbs. I'm a first-time mommy and she's scaring me am I reaaly gonna miss out on all this cause im fat??

Weight has nothing to do with anything, you will feel your baby move and you're beautiful just the way you are. I had a slim figure before i had my son, by time i had him i had gained abouy 60 - 80 pounds i got my figure back in two years.... if you wanna lose the weight thats up to you, you do what makes you feel comfortable in your own skin and dont let anyone else tell you different. You're beautiful hun and you're going to have the most precious thing life can give you.

I'm 213 lbs and yeah I'm having my baby today but I have had a perfectly round belly with hardly any stretchmarks. I have felt my baby since 14 weeks and husband felt him since 19 weeks I think it was. Weight does not matter while pregnant because of so many factors. Just ignore the comments and know that it will come off if you want it to :)
