goats I am really similar. I struggled with an eating disorder in the past, so haven't weighed myself since getting married (almost three years ago now) and pregnancy is definitely hard. I knew I'd gain weight, and am trying to love it, but tried on new jeans today and it was a bit awful. I can't stand how big my thighs are, even though I'm still exercising just as I was pre-pregnancy. I try not to dwell on it, though, and instead just think of a year from now, when I'll have a lovely little baby and can eat healthily and exercise better. It's nice to have a little end goal like that in sight, but again, I don't focus on it TOO much, because I know obsessing over food and exercise could suddenly turn into a huge thing. I'm not overweight, I'll try to be healthy, that's all.
Still, people are really insensitive when it comes to commenting about pregnant women! Someone mentioned recently that I've put on weight. Yes, obviously I have, but why point it out? It just bothers me to think of other people analysing my weight gain, and makes me feel self-conscious when I go out in public.
Anyway, I can't wait until I have a proper bump, and can feel like I'm obviously pregnant and not just a bit fatter. I think that will help, at least until I reach the point of people commenting on how big my bump was. (Talked about it with my mum on Sunday, and she said with her pregnancies by month 8 or 9 she got loads of "you must be due any day now" or "you're about to pop" comments. Ugh. Dreading that.)
On the other hand, I've been feeling little movements for the past few days, and it is awesome. I'm sure that it is the baby now and it just about makes up for the rude comments and bigger thighs. It's somehow still surreal and amazing that an actual tiny human is growing inside me, and any reminder of that is really great.
