Scared
Evening Girlies,
Im 33+1 and its suddenly hit me and im getting pretty scared. It sounds quite silly really as its not the labour or being a mummy that scares me, its what my tummy is going to look like after.
Ive always been quite fortunate with my figure. Am (or was) a size 10 and didnt really have to work at it.
At present I have no stretchmarks but with 7 wks left im well aware they could appear.
Im just so worried that DH wont fancy me anymore if i get stretchmarks and end up with a wrinkly saggy tummy.
I have told him how I feel and he says im just being silly and if it happens then its happened due to bringing our little girl into the world.
I just cant help but worry.
Am i the only one that worries about this kind of thing?

Only 7 weeks to go, here b4 you know it.
I don't know if it's any help, but I was left with stretchmarks on my tummy and a bit of loose skin after having our son, and my hubby definitely still fancies me! Sounds like you'll get away without much change anyway as you're naturally slim in the tummy area- I'm slim, but I've always had a tummy, as that's where I put the weight on first, so I was always going to be left a bit changed.
I must admit to being a tad worried this time, as I've got an even bigger, all-out-front bump (we're having another boy, and I'm sure he'll be bigger than his 8lb 15oz brother!)- my muscles will be shot to pieces! Ah well, it'll definitely be worth it, and I know hubby will still fancy me- it's just my own vanity I guess! xx
You are lucky your partner is telling you to stop being silly and not researching like mine!! aahhhhh
