Silly little meaningless rant alert, based on nothing but insecurity and hormones! Just got dressed up to go out for Christmas lunch with my mum, dad, DH and uncle. Wearing dress and leggings in attempt to ring the changes from my standard maternity trousers and maternity top look (I'm 24+2 and have recently exploded!).
Mum comes in to my bedroom, looks at me in outfit, and seeing my insecurity, says 'hmm...' and walks out. Feeling even worse I ask DH if I look alright.
He says I look great and slaps my arse. :)
Mum then says to him, just in my hearing, 'it's not a great view from the back.' and bursts out laughing!
DH Is fab, says I look sexy and pregnant. He is totally awesome.
Just a bit pissed off as have been stuck at home for months with HG and now I'm finally going out to lunch and my mum has sapped all confidence from me! I know my arse is huge - I'm bloody knocked up!
Anyone else fed up with insensitive comments from people who should be on your side?
...and Christmas is just beginning! Ho ho ho!
