From that to this

Hours after having my twins, I was told that I still looked six months pregnant. Well that comment hurt me a little bit. With my first two pregnancies I bounced back very quickly, I went from nine months pregnant to being completely flat, just not defined and toned. So to hear and to feel how big I still was just hurt me emotional and physiologically. While still in the hospital I went from being 34weeks pregnant (looking like I was having quads not twins) to looking six months pregnant then down to looking three months pregnant. Coming home I had still felt disgusting and even though I’ve literally just delivered my twins 10 days ago, I couldn’t help but believe that it’s just going to be impossible to be toned and in shape like I want to be. I started using scar/stretch mark treatment oil a few times a day now to not look like a sagging wrinkling 90yr old woman. And today I decided to take a picture of myself to see how bad I look and to use it as a progress checker and motivation. Well to my own surprise, see the photo I don’t feel as bad as I did before. I’m kinda proud to have carried four babies. I might not like how I look all the much, but I know it’s just the start of a new journey.
