Why my pregnancy is not seen?

When a baby has room to grow "width", the womb does little rounds. In this case, many pregnant women suffer from a lack of recognition of their motherhood. Update on the situation and advice to show her pregnancy otherwise.

Months pass and your belly does not round. Yet, you are gaining weight regularly and your pregnancy is great! Here is the explanation of this phenomenon that affects women who are overweight and how to live the best that disappointment.
 
Why my pregnancy is not seen?

Apart from the denial of pregnancy which may affect the physiological development of the baby and the silhouette of his mother, there is another situation where pregnancy can pass almost unnoticed: the overweight.

when a woman has a body mass index (BMI) greater than or equal to 26, it usually takes less weight during pregnancy than a woman of normal BMI. In fact, doctors recommend limiting weight gain to reduce the risk obstetric and medical: between 7 and 11.5 pounds for a BMI between 26 and 29 and between 6 and 7 pounds for a BMI greater than 291.

The second reason follows from the first: a few pounds gained during pregnancy make little difference with the starting weight. In short, they are less visible on the figure.

Finally and this is the most important reason: the baby has plenty of room to grow preexisting. It therefore occupies the abdomen in its width. This explains why the stomach does not take a round to the front.

A difficult situation to live

Pregnancy (and especially the first) for all women is a quite unreal adventure . Ultrasound and the baby's movements (second quarter) often help to become aware of his condition but apart from these events is the size of the stomach, which saves the status of "mother" and follow the evolution of the unborn. Where this information is missing, it can become difficult to invest in pregnancy. Especially as for others, the belly is a strong sign of motherhood, the proof that everything is going well. The psychiatrist and nutritionist, Bernard Waysfeld recognizes  while mothers whose belly is seen somewhat often worry about the normality of pregnancy.

It is also the stomach that allows mothers to find a seat on the bus, it is he who is the pride of the father-spouse or the curiosity of friends. In short, an obese woman faces this "no stomach" may feel disappointment. "These overweight people sometimes expect to recover their status of women through pregnancy. The round belly will forget their obesity, will" thin "for nine months. It will be for them a way to become attractive, to reaffirm their sexual identity usually hidden "Dr. Bernard Waysfeld analysis. Especially in a society where the pregnant woman has become a sort of icon.

In short, these overweight women who thought regain normalcy through their pregnancy are again marginalized and somehow deprived of their femininity.
Solutions to imagine

It is therefore to find ways to show her pregnancy otherwise. This may involve simple tips: tie a blindfold around her hips to bring out the belly, wearing T-shirts with a message ("it's a girl!") Or share pictures of the baby after each ultrasound ( instead of taking his "bidou" a picture every month ...). But most important is to live fully her pregnancy for herself. Some ideas: a blog to tell the progress of your pregnancy (the club.allwomenhealth.blogspot.com example), sign up for sessions to communicate about baby before birth, encourage the father to follow you to each appointment live for moments together ...

If you experience distress as you can no longer rejoice in your pregnancy, please consult a psychotherapist who can help you restore an image of you better than that you return the others. It is the quality of the relationship you build with your child during these nine months. He should not suffer in utero by a social pressure that unfortunately will soon discover ...
