It’s normal for women to feel more self-conscious about their bodies when pregnant. In fact, most women feel that way even when they’re not! However, while you may notice every bulge and stretch mark appearing, there’s a good chance your partner doesn’t.

That means that while you’re worrying about every extra pound you gain, he’s still seeing the woman he loves, and the soon to be mummy of his child.
