I'm 34 weeks pregnant and as I imagine how alot of women feel at this point, feel mega fat and abit hideous. I've never been skinny anyway but lost weight before getting pregnant and felt better about myself but now feel awful and can't help but feel like my husband feels the same about me. We never had much of a sex life (I was VERY surprised that I even got pregnant) but I can't remember the last time he made me feel wanted or desired or anything like that, he even used to call me his gorgeous or beautiful wife but again can't remember when he last said anything like that. Now lately he seems to be adding all these skinny young TOWIE looking girls on Facebook that he knows from work and have caught him quite a few times, not looking but staring up and down at skinny young girls when we're out. I know everyone says all men look but surely he shouldn't be if he's not even ever looking at me once in a while. I know how silly it all sounds but just hate the thought that while I'm here all fat and pregnant and not even my husband fancies me, that he's always eyeing up these fake tan, skinny, big boobs type girls wherever he goes. Sorry for the long post :(

If I were you I'd say to him that obviously you're not feeling at your most physically attractive (you ARE by the way, you are blooming and beautiful!) and that you're feeling a bit insecure. If he's a nice guy he will say something nice here!

Then tell him that you find it disrespectful that he thinks nothing of checking out other women right in front of you. Perhaps don't mention that they are skinny or young etc, because really that shouldn't matter, if he was leering at middle aged curvaceous women he would still be really rude and disrespectful. Say that you would appreciate him being a bit more subtle about looking at other women when you are together as it makes you feel bad.

What he does with this information (like this is NEWS to him!) will tell you what sort of man he is.

And please don't worry about getting back to your pre-baby size and shape when you should be enjoying your new baby. A good man will love you and fancy you regardless, because you have brought his child into the world, not because you can fit in your skinny jeans.
