Am I being unreasonable?

I’m 8 months pregnant and a FTM. Before we found out I was pregnant, my partner and I had separated because I found he’d been messaging other women. We decided to make a go of it and I understood that if we’re going to stand any chance of working out, I need to let the past go (unless he breaks my trust again). The last few months of pregnancy he has really stepped up and I have finally felt supported by a more mature man. Despite this, I have been feeling really down and just not happy with my body image. I know it’s completely normal that I’ve gained a lot of weight being pregnant but recently I’ve had enough! I have still tried to dress up, do my hair and makeup so that I look decent but haven’t had one compliment off him since getting pregnant. I wouldn’t mind this so much but my mind keeps taking me back to the compliments he was giving the women he was messaging. I didn’t say anything to him but over the last week he has made two comments aloud about women’s bodies on the telly. I KNOW I am probably overreacting but I just feel like it’s really insensitive, especially in our circumstances. I know that men look at other women and probably say things to their friends, god I do the same.. but I just think he should be a bit more aware of my feelings. What do you think? Any advice would be appreciated please.

I don't think you're overreacting. My DP has never once commented on another woman's body in front of me.

Your Partner has been unfaithful to you, he should be making things up to you, making you feel special. He's clearly not. Is this relationship worth it?
