So this all came up because I am in a wedding and had to get measurements taken for a dress soon after having a baby.

Why do I have to be shamed for being unhappy with my pp body? I had a slim/athletic build prepregancy. I gained 38 lbs and lost 20 within the first week. Now I'm within 5 lbs of my prepregancy weight. However, I am still squishy in areas I used to be muscular. My butt and thighs are bigger. My hips are wider. I'm just not used to my new body yet. But I feel like since I lost weight fast and look relatively back to normal, any time I voice my displeasure with my pp body, I am shamed for it. I am told things like "please, you look skinny. Shut up" and crap like that. And it's not like I am constantly complaining either. I maybe have voiced my displeasure 4 times in the 4 months since having my baby. And most of that was because I had my measurements taken for the dress fitting and wasnt happy with the numbers. It was a shock. Like dammit I am allowed to be unhappy. I need time to accept my new body and adjust to it. I am allowed to be unhappy with it until then ffs.

EDIT:

Maybe I should have explained this a little better. It's not like I am walking up to my friends and saying "hey it's nice to see you again. Btw I am soooo unhappy with my body". Like I said. I was at a fitting. Analyzing the way you look it what you do at those things. When you start trying on dresses and see bulges and fat where there never used to be any, and then you get measurements taken and they are so different than before you were pregnant, that's going to wear on you after a while. Like I said, it was a shock. I'm the type of person who holds in my emotions to a point, but wear me down enough and I am going to express how I feel. That is what happened here. It was just a lot to take in, and I started to express how I felt because I was overwhelmed with the changes. Im still trying to get used to my new body. My friends comments were not said in a way to be meant as compliments. It's always a complete dismissal of my feelings. Basically make me feel that because I am skinny I should just suck it up and automatically be ok with the way my body changed.

I guess I was just looking for some validation for the way I feel. Im not constantly dwelling on my body image. Most of the time I am not even thinking about it. But every once in a while, when I do start to feel bad about the way I look, I guess I just want someone to tell me it's ok to feel that way. I just want someone to understand that I dont always have to be happy with my body just because I'm skinny.

Thank you to those who had helpful comments, and gave me the validation I was looking for. Just having someone understand where I am coming from helps.
