Struggling with your postpartum body?

Question

Answer

Upset at myself for not using cocoa butter until AFTER I saw stretch marks popping up... but about 6 pounds under prepregnancy weight so I am not too unhappy! Almost 5 weeks pp and so in love with my stinker girl that I don’t care too much about how I look! ❤️

Answer

I am struggling with a flap of overhanging skin and fat. This is my 3rd so I know it won’t go away. It got bigger after this baby.

Answer

I’ve been feeing so good. Wasn’t expecting it at all. 🙌🏻

Answer

9 months

After 
(Now 3w pp) I’m not quite back where I was, I am very self conscious about how I am now, I’ve never had stretch marks before with my last two, but this baby gave them to me on my hips, waist, belly, breasts and vagina!! But at the end of the day I created life! ❤️

Answer

I’m 5 lbs from my prepreggo weight at 12 days pp. my belly is a bit looser and saggier (I was plus sized to begin with) but I honestly am
Fine with it this body grew a human being! My husband has even been sure to remind me that my body is perfect just as is and that I shouldn’t worry. So I’m not! Because i would rather spend this time focusing on binding with my son and husband and letting go of societal pressure for my body to fit
In to some sort of ideal. Being plus size since I was young certainly helped me be ok with my body no matter what even before pregnancy though. There are bigger more important things to worry about in this life.

Answer

I look like I’m still pregnant. I can’t even see my c section incision because my stomach is so swollen still lol god bless u guys who look good

Answer

3 weeks out and my tummy is still super soft and the muscles feel pooched out.  Second baby so am assuming that is the issue as I gained the same as I did with the first.

Answer

Definitely struggling to feel normal. Within the first 2 weeks PP i had lost 25 baby lbs and am only about 6lbs from my start weight but my body is just different. I went from wearing a size 6 to buying 2 pairs of size 10 just so I dont feel like a can of busted biscuits.

Answer

I got a buttload of stretch marks on my stomach with this second baby but am surprisingly okay with it.. Everything else seems back to normal. 💁

Answer

I’m liking my body better now than prior pregnancy. 
I gained about 35lbs during pregnancy and lost it all plus some by day 11pp. Having larger breast (although temporary) has given my figure a nicer shape too which doesn’t hurt.
