Journaling:

Horrifying. Grotesque. I hate you stretch marks, I really do. Sometimes I hear women say, “Oh! They’re my battle scars. I am proud of them.” Hogwash. I hate them. They are ugly and my stomach is deformed. No lotions, creams or potions made any difference. I even consulted a plastic surgeon and he said, “applying creams - old wives tale! At best the lotions will hydrate my stetch marks. Whoopdeedo. I have never felt the same way about myself and I’ve never been looked at the same way either. Absolutely disgusting. Four years after the birth of my first child and I still look at myself in horror each time I look in the mirror. They are even worse now.
Wow, what a truly *real* layout. Don't worry, I can cope with the picture. Congrats to you for being willing to put it out there. I have the tiniest of stretch marks (my one and only baby was premature and 2lb 10oz so he didn't make all that much of an impact) but I still don't like them. I hope scrapping this helped you.
 
I feel your pain....thought for 2 seconds that I was looking at a picture of *my* belly...and I totally agree with you!! Hugs!!!!! Great layout!!
 
I have a love/hate relationship with mine! I hope someday you might atleast be able to have the same. It has taken me a LONG time to get to this point, but really...you are so brave to post your true feelings, and this is a beautiful LO!

HUGS
 
I agree, i think most women have a love/hate relationship with theirs. i know i do. after owen i heard from my mom " if you had used the cream this wouldnt happen" " if u bought those maternity clothes insted of sweatpants and pj pants this wouldnt happen" um yeah okay. so big **hug** Great job on being able to Journal and Heal through this. The Layout is really beautiful though.
 
What a truly great layout! Doesn't bother me one bit.
What bothers me is the fact that after 2 kids, my mom had ONE tiny one inch long stretch mark, the witch! Bwahahah!
Love this layout...that journaling is so real...beautiful!
 
I think this is a great LO - the photo doesn't bother me in any way. {{{hugs}}} Your journaling is heartfelt and honest and I love it.
 
tania, i feel ya! my tummy is the same way - part of the loss of all pride in ones body that comes with motherhood - lol. Ya know though - you are much more than just your belly - and well love you!

Thanks for such a great REAL page!!!!
 
I'm right there with you!! I feel you pain! I'm with Kristy...I almost thought I was looking at a pic of myself!! It takes a lot of confidence to scrap this and I commend you!!
