I love pictures however I’ve never been one to really show off. I stepped outside my box, my comfort zone and did it. I have gained weight and not from baby so I didn’t like the way I looked, I have scars from multiple surgeries especially the long one going down my stomach. However I start to look back and think that those scars are me surviving and so it the weight gain (from meds I had to take). I almost died and this scare is a reminder of that but I embrace it. My first son was still born and he is always with me in my heart and tatted on my leg. My daughter will know about her big brother and big sister (husband lost a daughter years ago too). She is our rainbow baby and I am embracing all of my gains no matter what. So for the ladies who think they are too fat, too many stretch marks, too many scars embrace them and show them off. I’m glad I did.
