Self consciousness

I'm 36+5 weeks and I can't get over how gross my body is.. My boyfriend tells me I'm beautiful and that he loves my body everyday but it doesn't help. I'm really tired of hating my reflection :( and I'm really tired of being sad but I don't know how to make myself like what I see.. Can anyone help?

I was a very petite pre-pregnancy. I was 97lbs & 5'4". I'm now 33 weeks and I've gained almost 25lbs. My belly is huge and even my face got rounder. When I look in the mirror, I do feel like I'm a whale. when I walk, I know I'm waddling. Oh when I eat, I feel like a giant hippo that eats 500lbs of food everyday. When I see people that's my pre-pregnancy wearing bikini I do feel a lil jealous. I don't feel as sexy because now sex is difficult due to my big belly. I do feel down sometimes but I don't let that get to my head. When my hubby tells me no matter what I'm still his sexy wife. I trust & listen to him. Because I know that it doesn't matter if I look huge to other people, as long as my hubby still thinks I'm beautiful, and he loves me. That's all it matters. And I try to stay positive with thoughts like hey I may not look so attractive now but I have a little baby kicking inside me! That's the most beautiful and magical thing ever. No hot body or makeup is going to take that from me! I know I am beautiful because I am a mommy now ;)

Hey, firstly im sorry you feel like that I know it must be hard :( I'm a ftm, only 11 weeks ATM so not really showing however I have suffered with eating disorders in the past and my changing body is quite difficult for me to grasp... I guess no one can truly make you see different, but you can look at the positives, your body is this way because your growing another little person!  And I think that's worth it all
