Postpartum body

Kirsten

Since I’m so close to popping this kid out anytime now, I’ve started to think more about my postpartum body.

Honestly, I thought my pregnant body was going to be difficult to adjust to, but it wasn’t bad. I’m pregnant! Who cares if I look a little swollen or who cares if my chin is slightly more hairy than it used to be!? 🤷‍♀️

But postpartum body? That kind of scares me. Because the grace that’s extended to pregnant women isn’t typically extended to women who just HAD a baby. After a certain point people just expect the pudge to go away, or for old clothes to fit. And when I think of all of my pre-pregnancy clothes, I kind of worry.

Anyone else thinking about this or waaaaay more confident than I am?
