Pregnant Meteorologist Katie Fehlinger Blasts Haters For Calling Her Pregnant Abdomen, “Disgusting”

Pregnant Meteorologist Katie Fehlinger Blasts Haters For Calling Her Pregnant Abdomen, "Disgusting"Katie Fehlinger is pregnant with twin girls and she is proud of it.  Who wouldn’t be, right?  Katie is a CBS3 Philly meteorologist and has been receiving some negative criticism about how she looks.  The criticism got so bad Katie felt she had to address it on her Facebook account and tell her haters exactly what she thought.

Katie wrote: Hey guys! Once more, I have to get something off my chest. So, the nature of my job makes me an easy target for criticism. I will always understand that, and I will most typically just ignore it. However, after someone blatantly called me a “sausage in casing” and another declared that “sticking your pregnant abdomen out like that is disgusting”, I felt a need to draw a line and speak up.

Everyone’s right to their opinion is important, but so are manners. And while rude comments like these will never make me feel the need to change anything about myself, I find a bigger underlying issue here. These particular nasty-grams were directed at a pregnant woman.  

She continued, So this little manifesto of sorts is dedicated to every mother out there – other pregnant moms-to-be, moms reading this while their toddlers play on the swing set, moms whose kids have long since gone off to college…

You are beautiful. 

Even during the most uncomfortable – and let’s face it, less than glamorous – symptoms of pregnancy, what women go through to bring their precious children into the world is, simply put, AMAZING and you should be lauded.

Frankly, I don’t care how “terrible” or “inappropriate” anyone thinks I look. I will gladly gain 50 pounds & suffer sleepless, uncomfortable nights if it means upping my chances to deliver 2 healthy baby girls. Now it’s about more than aesthetics. I want these babies to have the best start possible. And that hopefully means my belly that “looks like it’s about to explode!” will continue to grow the next few weeks.

I say let’s raise a Shirley Temple to swollen feet, stretch marks, nausea, all the extra pounds and the dark circles! They’re badges of motherhood. And for those of you who think that’s “disgusting”, remember a woman went through the very same thing to bring YOU into the world.

In the meantime, let’s all remember the lesson Mom taught us – if you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all.

It’s no surprise that Katie’s post above received over 50,000 likes and thousand of shares on Facebook. Katie was so touched by the kind words and wishes she received she posted another Facebook post thanking everyone and said, ‘The response to this post has proved to me that positivity will always beat out the negativity.”

Congrats to Katie of having the courage to stand up and speak out!!
