[quote=Anonymous]Op you need a therapist. This is not a normal Perspective. It’s extremely concerning to be so controlling and the reality is that pregnancy, birth, postpartum and parenting have many elements you cannot control. Learning to have an adaptive, resilient, flexible mindset and to realize the limits of what you can control is an exercise best done with a therapist now and not with a newborn who will upend the life you have as you know it. I say this as someone who also wanted privacy and to be discrete when I was pregnant but guess what, you don’t get to control how you look, people noticing your body and pregnancy, people staring at you, making comments, etc. What you also don’t know now is that pregnancy is the last time you’ll be getting any attention, once baby arrives you will just be Larla’s mom and all anyone will care about is the baby.
