I have this problem that is really affecting me now. I just don't feel that I am good enough for the bloke that im with.

We have just got back together after breaking up and now I just don't feel good enough. He says that I'm just being silly and that I'm fine, but it's just I don't feel good enough myself.

I don't work cause I'm a full time mum and I have a baby on the way. I only have what benefits come in and they have to go straight to my partner to help with the bills. So I never have any money to buy any nice clothes or to keep my hair done nicely or to buy any make up to make me look a bit better, and I'm not even sure the best way to apply it.

Cause I'm a mum I need to tone up a lot. I'm not overweight it's just my muscles need a work out. I can't afford a DVD to work out at home, and I can't afford to use the gym. Please can anyone that might have felt the same in the past give me any advice on what they did. He is a great bloke and I just want him to be proud to show me on his arm.

I know exactly how you feel, I've got a 4 yr old and a 2 yr old. My husband works so hard and with my benefit and his pay ends just meet. I have no money to just go have my hair done or go clothes shoping or even meet a friend for a coffee or just spoil myself a bit, I love my family so much and wouldnt change any of that. But I don't feel good about myself and I am seriously thinking of getting a job just so we have a bit more freedom with money as much as i really want to stay at home until my children start school it is just becoming to hard to. I look at what i have and appreciate it everyday but i wish i had more money . Sorry not much advice here just i understand completely how you feel p.s i'm not sure of the best way to apply make-up either.

eyeswideopen agony auntSounds like the baby blues to me. They will pass. As a mother of three I certainly have been there. Try to keep your weight under control during your pregnancy and once you have the baby start the situps and floor exercises, they cost nothing and do wonders. Your partner sounds like he cares about you very much. You'll be fine and good luck with the new baby.

mommyofthree agony auntI am a stay at home mom of three, and most other moms will agree that times are often tuff, but we get through it. I rarely have the money to do many of the things my single and childless friends do but I have something they don't have.....a family that needs me. Whenever you get to feeling low about what you don't have you need to remind yourself of how important what you do have is! When your guy tells you your fine, he means it, he is probably very appreciative of all that you do everyday. He doesn't come home expecting to see a model, he wants to see the woman he loves. Stay strong and you will get through this, you are doing one of the most important jobs in the world, you are raising part of the future generation. Good luck.
