feeling so ugly

Does anyone else feel disgusting and not sexy at all while pregnant? I am only 10 weeks, but I feel like since I got pregnant my husband has lost interest in me. For a couple weeks I was constantly nauseous, so I wasn't in the mood. But now that I feel better I'm back to normal. I found some pictures on his computer, but when I try to talk to him about it and tell him that it makes me feel like crap when he looks at them we just get in a fight. I know he does this when he works out of town, but he has been home lately and that is what hurts. I know I am not attractive, but he used to still tell me I was pretty. Has anyone else had this happened with their significant other? Does it get better?

Thank you ladies. I hope I feel better soon. He is in another country right now and I always feel like sh*t when he is out of town. I'm having terrible dreams where I wake up crying. My sisters wedding is in a couple days so maybe since I get to get all dressed up it will help.

All I can say is..... men are men majority of men look at pics ect it's just the way they were built its not a reflection on their partners or how they view them more so just look. As for feeling blah and sexy I felt that way for ages I'm 23 weeks n just starting to feel more attractive even if I can't see my toes. May I make a suggestion which helped me a lot. Get your hair nails done have a massage n maybe retail therapy then one night get dressed up and go out on a date with your partner. It really helps. I spent a whole day on me next day felt great n decided to surprise my partner with some really sexy lingerie and dinner it was great to reconnect as a couple and also with my self

Hi :) im also 10 wks + 3 days i had an opposite reaction happen to me about 2 weeks ago some days i feel very nauseous so i dont feel sexy but one day i was feeling better and decided to wear my cute bra and matching underwear while i still can :p i kinda told my fiancée what i had on underneath my cut offs and t shirt thinking hed think about it for the day and id feel sexy about it well he was like you're wearing a thong? Why you're pregnant? :/ which was weird because he usually doesnt keep his hands off now that we're expecting pregnant women can be the sexiest women in the world one day soon you'll get a day where you feel great so be a bad girl and splurge a little on a new little something something to wear and if anything you'll feel sexy for yourself and maybe hell think it will be too :)
