Accepting pp body??! 😩

Question

My body to the left is post pregnancy and to the right is 2 1/2 months postpartum...
- we went out yesterday and had hubby take a few pics of me and i honestly hate the way i look... i look all swollen up... maybe im just not used to looking like this???! Working out with a toddler and a newborn has not been easy... when i have the energy to exercise, my little one starts being a bit fussy and wants to get held to the point i no longer have the energy to exercise... we went for an hour walk this morning but i feel like thats not enough....
I need help with confidence...i want to accept and love my body for the way it is right now... i want to accept that my body might take a little longer to be back the way it is...  but im having the hardest time doing so.... 
any advice would be appreciated...

Answer

I think you look the same🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

I don’t see a difference but i feel the EXACT same way

Answer

Have you tried looking into gyms with daycares? That way they can play and interact with kids while you work out?

Answer

I feel like I look the same as I did before I got pregnant. I forgot what it’s like having a flat tummy so I feel like mine looks huge compared to what it used to be. Don’t be so harsh on yourself, you did an amazing thing having a baby. I have to take it one day at a time

Answer

I know exactly what you mean. I have a 3 year old and a 20 month old... as you can see I hade my kids basically back to back and I just couldn’t find the time exercise. I walked with one in the stroller and one strapped to me and even still I didn’t feel that was enough. In all actuality you getting out to do 30 minutes of walking and getting 10k steps in a day is suffice. I didn’t get to working out until my youngest was about 1 yo.... it’s hard... having to care for my kids and breastfeeding, having to stop when they cry but I’ve learned to just do it. Working out has become a part of my lifestyle. I do stretches with my kiddos so they feel apart of it as well. I had a scare with my second, having high blood pressure and having to do the 24 hour urine test so I promised myself to get right for the sake of my kids. I’m currently 12 weeks along and I workout 6 days a week. It helps that I also can do everything at home but your walking is great. Don’t get discouraged. Some of us won’t be be same after having a baby and that’s ok as long as we are healthy.

Answer

They look the same to me and you look great in both!
