chunky face & bigger nose

Have you guys noticed your face getting fat and nose getting bigger or is it just me? I feel so ugly looking in the mirror I miss my skinny face, my face has also gotten alot more oily too and I hate it I feel ugly all the time especially with my fat nose! Has anyone else experienced this and what helps get everything back to normal after birth?

when I was preggers with my son I swelled up everywhere :'( my feet ,my nose my hands n fingers,my face, & my butt!!! lol but I definitely felt like you haunted by my swollen fat nose . it was especially noticeable when I got my picture randomly taken..ughhhh I felt hideous lol!! im sure it's all the normal though.. :) it took a while two or three weeks after birth for me to deflate so I wore waist trimmer or girdle thing and it helped .

@Lennyxo omg tell me about the nose part! !! I swear it looks like I'm always crying my nose is always so red and puffy and with makeup forget it! My face gets so oily that my makeup doesn't even last and it's impossible to hide my red nose :-(

I feel like my nose is bigger but I haven't really gained any weight anywhere else so I can't complain.  Just have a basketball for a tummy. :) 21+4 weeks

I'm 38 weeks too and omg my face is huge! Got my license renewed and comparing my old profile with my new one is depressing as hell... But we will get our body's and faces back soon girls! Just keep your chin up and remind yourself you are going through this to get a little angel out of it :) so what's a few extra pounds ?

I haven't gotten round I the face but I do get dry skin I'm having a boy and my belly use to be a lil budge I'm almost 24 weeks and my belly huge in my eyes my bf says I look fine but u can tell I'm pregnant. To help with your oily skin I use clean and clear the orange bottle and it helps with all the oil
