Thoughts about pregnancy with lipedema

Thoughts about pregnancy

It's hard to describe what you feel and what you think. It's a mix of total excitement and total panic. Sounds a bit theatrical? Yes, that can be good.

I have to admit that I've grown a lot in the seven months. I have become more confident, I think. I stand in front of the mirror and see myself with completely different eyes. I used to see small blemishes, too big a stomach, strange thighs, big arms and a lot more that I didn't like.

The change in pregnancy - a new perspective

But something has changed. When I look in the mirror now, I see a body that is doing amazing things. Which houses a small miracle. I can hardly express it in words, but I have never been as at peace with my body as I am at this moment. Small love handles, big belly ... so what? That's part of it! I am not an ideal image of a woman and maybe I don't even want to be. What for? What good is it for me to be great for others but secretly not to like myself? I prefer to be officially imperfect. Blatant announcement or late insight? Decide for yourself what you think ... I don't want to tell you anything.

There are many Women who don't have children want - because of our illness. Because of lipedema. I would like to say again clearly that I do not judge anyone, but unfortunately I do not understand some opinions either. That’s another matter entirely. I am very happy to have taken this step, not to have let lipedema influence me and to live my life now. With ALL what goes with it.

So clearly! I'm for:

LIFE

LET LIVE

CREATE LIFE
