Body Image Issue

Any moms or mom-to-be who has body image issue? As a kid, I was made fun of for my weight so I don’t want to gain weight at all for my pregnancy (currently 15 weeks). I also dislike the look of being heavily pregnant so I’ve been tempted to get a corset to ensure I don’t start showing. Any one went through this and have any solution or advice? I don’t want the child to be unhealthy afterall 😕 #1stpregnacy #advice #advicepls

me, i had bad anxiety n almost fell into depression. ive always had body image issues whether pregnant or not n i wasnt super big size to begin with. i was about 49kg pre preggers n 65kg at the end, i cried everyday n hurt myself by burning my arm n thighs but i still ate n tried exercising abit as i did not want to harm my baby. now im 6mo postpartum n my body with exercise n bf is going back to my original weight but still about 6-7kg heavier, dont worry, the weight will go, so what if ure fat when pregnant? as long as baby is healthy all haters can go screw themself.

yes i felt that way throughout my entire pregnancy, i’ve already struggled with depression n anxiety before i was pregnant n all that additional weight n changes to my body during pregnancy didnt make it better. im just really thankful for my bf n friend for always encouraging me. i was forced to abort twice by my parents n ex, that took a huge toll on my mental health as well.. so really, i dont regret having my little girl, for her ill live n id do it all over again if it means i get to wake up everyday to her smile. i hope u feel better soon n have a healthy n smooth pregnancy journey as well as a healthy baby. u can definitely get back your body post pregnancy n honestly just remember that people’s opinion dont matter
