This really isn't a question, but moreso a rant. I'm more on the overweight side, and at 26 weeks, it's barely obvious that i'm pregnant. People never know if they should ask me, or if they shouldn't. It's aggravating. i think pregnant women are BEAUTIFUL, but i feel like i'm missing out on it.
anyone else felt this way? :(

Who said ANYTHING about getting public approval? I don't care about public approval.
MY POINT IS... I love pregnant bellies, and just kind of sad that I don't... have one.
You're an idiot. But thanks for your two cents.

Well, I've been having this problem too! I'm also 26 weeks and I just look like my "spare tire"got a little bigger...I catch people glancing at my belly all the time but they don't say anything...so I just rub it and put the other hand on my back lol. But I have invested in some iron-on letters and rhinstones to make cute baby bump shirts...

I know how you feel. Pregnant bellies ARE beautiful and when you get pregnant you just can't wait to experience that for yourself. My pregnancies didn't show until I was about 7-8 months along. I remember someone saying WOW I had no idea that you were pregnant after I said that I was. YIKES. I know exactly how yoy feel and it has nothing to do with public approval but more with the overall celebration we get with pregnancy and everything that comes with it. Congratulations to you!

Yes, I had the same problem. I was overweight and pregnant.. most people didn't know I was pregnant.. I didn't start really looking obvious until the 8 - 9 month. Then again, I only gained 7 lbs my whole pregnancy.. but I didn't have to..the baby took from what I already had.

He can the two purely supply you toddler help for him or her or he would be interior the toddler's existence. don't experience a hundred% in charge it takes 2 human beings to make a toddler you happen to fall in love with one yet another, you probably did no longer intentionally attempt to take him from her or something issues purely happen. actual from the way she is treating him i do no longer comprehend how long his marriage to her would have lasted besides a marriage relies on the help of the different and that builds up have confidence devoid of the two a marriage frequently crumbles. now may be the time to look out for the ultimate activity of your toddler however so which you will tell him as quickly as obtainable.

Go buy some of those maternity shirts that say baby w/ an arrow pointing to your belly. Or buy the one that says baby on the way. Don't worry, your belly will start really sticking out very soon...and you'll start to waddle...then, everyone will know that you have a bundle of joy on the way!

You are only six months along and you certainly cannot blame people for trying to avoid offending you. It will soon be obvious that it's a baby, not your new layer of fat. Let one or two know of the pregnancy and word will spread like wildfire!

every woman goes thru this if you weight 80 pounds or 280 pounds, dont freak about it , people are so obsessed with being fat or telling people they're fat it's gotten ridiculous, the most important thing is to fcus on having a healthy baby, you're not missing out on anything.

my cousins wife is a much bigger girl and she didn't start showing until around 30 weeks, to the point where people definitely knew she was pg. it was hard on her, but seriously she was so dang cute.
i think it's ok to feel that way, just try not to focus on that-- find clothes that are OBVIOUSLY maternity to draw the focus to your bump, but still stylish.
new clothes will make you feel better too! :)
when i started wearing obviously maternity clothes people started asking me when i was due. (and then they started asking if i was having twins haha!) :)
