Tips on how to feel sexy while pregnant. Pregnancy can be a very challenging time. Your body changes daily and you might not be feeling your sexy self. Not to worry. Here are some mindset tips on staying and feeling sexy during your pregnancy.
Practice body positivity during pregnancy-
This video is dedicated to my BFF, Wendy Barba, from @napavale who you see in the beginning and to all those pregnant mamas out there. May you recognize and celebrate your beauty in all its glory!
1)Do something that makes you have to act or feel sexy. In my case that thing was dancing. Dancing always makes me feel feminine and sexy. Looking back at my pregnancy now I realize I made myself do things during that time that were counterintuitive to how I was feeling. I would put myself in situations that made me have to act sexy. Like get on the dance floor for the showcase I did or take sexy pics. Sexiness is all about mindset. Fake it till you make it baby. (MINDSET)
2)Embrace those curves mama! Embrace it all. And if you’re still having a hard time embracing your juiciness just remind yourself that the pregnancy is temporary. This reminder will keep you grateful for being pregnant in the first place. It will also remind you of the amazing temple that your body is. Because honestly, what our bodies can do is extraordinary! (GRATITUDE)
3)Repeat positive incantations to yourself constantly. All the time, everywhere. Things like: “I am so strong. My body is so miraculous. I was made for this. I look beautiful. I am glowing.” Tell yourself those things you would tell your best friend or the things you will tell your future daughter when its her turn to be pregnant. (AFFIRMATIONS)
4)Get dolled up. So maybe your wardrobe is limited while pregnant. That doesn’t mean you have to let go of yourself entirely. For me that meant putting on a little makeup and blow drying my hair. It’s amazing what a little makeup can do to lift your spirits. (SELF-CARE)
So if you are pregnant right now thinking when is this going to be over already I want to take this opportunity to tell you just how beautiful you look. That’s right. Even if no one else is telling you this I want to remind you… you are gorgeous. You are carrying life inside you for goodness sake!
