Dont feel beautiful :(

I’m sure you are beautiful. I hated myself before I was pregnant as much as I do now so I can’t really comment if this is a postpartum thing.

You’ve grown life and now your body is nurturing and providing fuel to sustain that little life. Your body, in its entirety is so beautiful and perfect, a testament to the strength and pain of every day. Despite all the challenges that come with motherhood you are doing everything you can for your little one, your body physically and mentally is being so excruciatingly tested to make that happen. That’s so so beautiful. Yes you look different to before pregnancy, but now you’re a beautiful mama. So beautiful 🥹 I know it’s easier said than done I’ve struggled so much with this too, but just reaffirming what our bodies have gone through and challenging those thoughts as a reminder can make you feel so empowered. Sending you all the love mama 🤍 you ARE Beautifulllll

Can't say it better than @Munazzah! You ARE beautiful! And your baby sees only pure beauty and love in your eyes! So think of that the next time when you see yourself in the mirror ❤️

I also felt like this near my end of pregnancy and pp I ended up with pre eclampsia so i swelled up loads and now i remember not wanting pictures take when i had my baby I felt awful still do now but im getting there with myself. I think we need to appreciate ourselves more we have carried life and birthed it its an amazing thing :)

@Steph same

I feel the same

I can understand that . . Pre pregnancy I was literally 85-90pounds i was soo petite and wore a 00 jean size and i was soo okay w myself always feeling pretty, I’m now weighing 140 pounds and have yet to deliver this baby any day now , never had 1 stretch mark on my body now am completely covered from hips to tummy to butt. However I’ve fallen in love w the ability of how marvelous our body is to be able to bring life into this world!! I’m proud to say my body went through a drastic change just to birth life ! As a woman I hope you can manage to see how beautiful you are and how majestic/marvelous you and your body are to have been able to produce life! Every weight gain every stretch mark all of it look at it w love because that’s the sacrifice we made to bring life into this world and no one can ever take that power from us ! 🤍🤍 every mommy is beautiful to me even if they don’t quite feel it , we are all majestic

Mama,i so understand -i had the same feeling! I dont breastfeed so i think its a bit different with weight part but if i may share what i did to get better(try small steps!): -im 9months pp and lost 8kg by having 8h eating window&no snacking (weight started moving only after 3weeks or so!)&no junk(but i do love chocolate) -i bought few cute outfits from Shein (not expensive but trendy)-wore them until old clothes started fitting. -test different skincare-i tried pp mama face cream-it helped my skin a lot. Make up sits better on moisturised skin. -visit hairdresser&treat yourself-you deserve it♡ And as ladies say-you gave new life and looking after your baby every second. its the hardest job ever so give yourself credit! You are gorgeous mama♡♡♡

You’re not the same person as you were before you created a whole Nother life and now you’re sustaining that life and that comes at a physical Toll. You’ll get there keep working at it, baby steps. Don’t give up. Communication with your partner and be honest with yourself. Don’t have unrealistic goals. Keep each goal small and attainable. And cut yourself some slack mothering is so hard giving birth is not easy and it takes a long time to bounce back for some people.
