Anyone else being really hard on themselves, expecting to be able to do everything and to feel completely recovered? I’m struggling a lot this time around, it’s my 3rd baby. I’m 5 weeks pp tomorrow and finally today just had a breakdown and cried for a good hour. We’re having family pictures done next week and I splurged and ordered to dress, because I just want to feel pretty and feminine for once. I’m still almost 20 lbs up, the heaviest I’ve ever been postpartum, and I’ve really put looking and feeling good on the back burner since I got pregnant. I’ve lived in yoga pants, braided hair, and no makeup since last fall. I thought my bleeding had stopped, but it’s started up again, I’m still sweating over even the slightest bit of activity (and especially while nursing at night). And of course, the severe lack of sleep and having to look after 2 other young children just adds to my stress. Plus I’m ebf my newborn, and also my toddler 2-3 times per day. So my breasts are huge and super leaky. So today I tried on the dress I ordered and even though I sized up, it was still too small. I just sat on the floor and cried. I feel kinda silly, because the pp period is not at all new to me. But for some reason I’m struggling a lot more with it this time around. Anyone else relate?
