I look terrible! AHAHAHA I have pregnancy acne in full swing and I am way overdue for a brow wax and a hair cut! What I have found that makes me feel better is getting showered and dressed in real clothes instead of pajamas! Every day I try to get a shower and get dressed and not hang around in my PJs all day feeling like a bum! Make-up makes me feel worse, though, because it increases the pregnancy acne so I skip that.
I'm doing well medically this week as well! No change, so that's good! I'm 30 weeks on Wednesday! By this time last pregnancy I was 3-4cm dilated, 80-90% effaced, had bulging membranes, and was in hospital on bed rest! Whenever I get down I just think about that! This time I'm effaced, but only 1cm dilated (which isn't out of the realm of "normal" for a 3rd pregnancy), I'm NOT in hospital, I can snuggle my kids every day and sleep next to my husband at night, I'm not 3hrs away from home, I'm still able to work (I run a home daycare) even though I did have to hire some additional help for the things I can't do (like taking the kids outside to play, lifting, etc, so my employee does all that stuff and I supervise crafts, story time, nap time for the littles that still nap, etc, all the stuff that can be done sitting down I still do)....
...so yeah, counting my blessings and getting showered/dressed every day has helped a ton!
