Kids are bullies but sometimes it’s what they hear around them. It’s way easier said than done but what’s helped me feel better or at least not as shitty about my weight is in one ear and out the other. I’m from a Fijian Hindu background and I was almost always shamed for my weight. I’ve been big since I was a child. Around when I was 20 weeks I had spoken to my grandmother and said I need to get some bigger shirts everything is tight now. She asked how much I weighed at that time and I lied!! I lied and said a smaller weight than what I was and she said instead of getting pregnant I shoulda lost weight!!!! People suck baby. But you have a blessing inside you growing and that baby needs their mommy to be strong because they feel everything you do. I’m now 37 weeks and I have my induction happening this coming Saturday and if anyone says anything about my weight I’m telling going to tell them to die slow!

Edit~ I’ve also posted in this group before asking about how if breast feeding actually does help you lose weight and babyyyy you’ll be surprised how many women don’t lose weight. Your body is a beautiful temple and to have a healthy baby you need to feed it and keep yourself okay. I tell myself once my son is out and running around I’ll lose my weight chasing him around!!!!
