Just before 27 weeks!

@autumnlove: ditto! I feel like I blow up like a balloon in my 3rd trimester.

There was a period where I felt cute and pregnant. It didn't last long

I think you look gorgeous!

It comes and goes for me. Sometimes I feel unattractive and fat. My arms are fatter and I have a slight double chin and I feel self conscious. Other times I do feel sexy and attractive. Especially when my DH gives me lots of compliments. It helps boost my self esteem.

I do from about weeks 20-25 when my bump is still small enough to be cute but noticeably pregnant. (That's probably because my husband finds me VERY attractive with a small bump.)

But these days, I'm just huge everywhere. My legs are a disaster and my bum has doubled in size. My hair hasn't been dyed in so long that it's a mousey brown which I hate -- I've already made a hair appt for after this baby comes. So no, I don't feel attractive right now!

NOPE. I'm firmly in the "I hate pregnancy" camp, unfortunately

@HLK208: I loved the photos! You look lovely!

I actually did like how I looked until about 34-35 weeks- then I felt just huge.

I felt gorgeous with my first pregnancy even though the pictures from that period contradict those feelings. This time around I feel like a big blob.

I honestly kind of do. I had a belly before I got pregnant and was very self-conscious of it, so I hid it. Now, I like wearing form-fitting things to show it off while it's "acceptable," even though I'm approaching enormous at this point.

And miracle of miracles, pregnancy actually cleared my skin up! It's kind of amazing.

I don't feel beautiful, but I feel more comfortable in my skin now than I did before I was pregnant.

@HLK208: I just saw those pics, and you look AMAZING. Seriously. You look gorgeous.

Not at the beginning or end, but I felt pretty for a while in the middle.

@HLK208: I saw the pic you posted on IG recently and you look stunning!

In the second trimester and maybe beginning of the 3rd. I love playing up the bump...but before I get all swollen and bloated and real fat.

@Mrs. Blue: Jabba the Hutt - hahaha!

I enjoyed being pregnant (I'm one of THOSE crazy ladies) so I did. Only because DS was super nice to me. Hope subsequent pregnancies are similar bc I'm spoiled!

Not even close! My hair was a mess, I bloat so much. My feet, ankles, calves and knees all become the same size. I don't like how I look at all while pregnant.

I actually felt the most beautiful I ever have in my life while I was pregnant! I hated actually *being* pregnant, but I loved how I looked. I felt both beautiful AND sexy! Both of those are not feelings that I have often so I loved it.

While I was miserable being pregnant, I looked good. Until the end, when I was just a beached whale.

@MrsKoala: Me too! I didn't enjoy anything about pregnancy other than how I felt looks-wise! I look in the mirror at my gross PP body and think "hm..I should get pregnant again" hahah makes sense right? Why would I think about the gym or a diet?

I much prefer my look pregnant than not pregnant. I was way less self-conscious.

I felt attractive during my last pregnancy (late 2nd tri, early 3rd). Now (14 weeks) I still just look like I've gained some pudge I'm looking forward to having a noticeable baby bump.

@HLK208: You look absolutely gorgeous in those pics. I wish I had looked half as good pregnant! So no, I do not feel attractive pregnant. I looked very bloated and awkward.
