Yeah, Im around that point too. My hubby is smart enough not to say anything unless I do get "all dolled up" which he just lets me know that he appreciates the effort.

I wouldn't do my make up an didn't care about my clothes. Well I felt ugly but didnt want to do anything about it, but lately I've gotten myself more make up and started doing it again and I'm on Pinterest all the time so I get hair tips on there and it's really made me feel ALOT better about myself. Well I still feel insecure with my body, but it has helped.

I mostly wear his clothes now because my jeans are really uncomfortable. I want to still look nice because im insecure alot about my husband. Hes really handsome and he does sales for a living so he always looks nice and goes to peoples houses when they want him to bid there work. So I always feel like I have to look good because I know he goes to rich pretty womens houses. He tells me not to worry but I get depressed because I feel like even if I pushed myself to look decent I wouldnt be able to keep it up:(

That's how I was, and what made things worse was when I still worked. I worked at some fancy corporate marketing building where it was expected of you to look nice every day, and it was just horrible.

Tell him out of respect for you, he should be happy your butt's clean! Lol

I'm the same. I have a 10 month old and I'm 22+1 and a stay at home mom with a pinched sciatic nerve. I barely get dressed half the time. T shirt and panties all day. My son is fed and my house is clean so my husband knows better than to ask more of me! Haha

Maybe once a week, he'll come home to a big spread on the table, I'll get dressed up and put on make up for him. He's never asked me to, but I like him to know I'm still me under here lol
