Fear of weight gain

15 weeks now and seeing my weight creeping up is making me slightly anxious. I used to be very overweight and worked really hard over 10 years to slowly lose and maintain my pre preganancy weight within healthy range. My symptoms doesnt allow me to do strength training as much as I would like and seeing the muscles becoming flabby upsets me too. Anyone shares same sentiments? How do you accept the incoming changes to your body?

I was 69kg before pregnant. during covid I lose weight to 51kg before pregnancy. I am 164cm. after that I conceived and gain to 58kg. had a miscarriage, 3 months later got pregnant again and gain 23kg to 81kg just before giving birth. my baby is 4 month old and my weight is stucked at 68kg. I wouldn't stress to lose weight because I tell myself that when I am determined to lose weight I can lose all the weight I want. currently I am breastfeeding and busy taking care of my baby so I wouldn't want to stress myself to lose weight as well.
