How did your body change after birth?

Question

Was there anything you noticed line hips being wider or anything like that? I’m a ftm and people have told me my hips and probably my butt will be bigger? I don’t necessarily want that. I was hoping I’d just get my old body back which was in shape! Lol obviously I’ll have to start working out again. We’re you able to get you’re pre-baby body back?

Answer

My hips have definitely stayed wider since my first pregnancy and I have a bit of a mom belly. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

Not like I was in shape before, but it went down the toilet. 100%.

Answer

My hips are a little wider, but that’s it. I weigh the same as I did pre-baby. I was probably a year postpartum before I looked like I did before but I was just letting my body naturally adjust, I wasn’t working out and I don’t diet.

Answer

My body went back to normal expect for my chest, they’re the same size they were pre pregnancy but they’re so empty/ deflated feeling. Can hardly even push them up with a push up anymore!

Answer

Only thing was boobs stayed bigger. Everything else went right back.

Answer

Flatter boobs (breastfeeding was not kind to them lol). Wider hips. Bigger butt. And a little bit of a bigger stomach. I had a csection tho and I am not going to lie. I used that as an excuse for myself to not workout and get back into shape. That and being just totally exhausted with a newborn. I definitely think if I would just buckle down and eat better and workout again, I would get back to where I was before pregnancy. Except the boobs. Those aren't coming back lol 🤷‍♀️😆

Answer

My hips stay wider. My weight always goes back to pre pregnancy numbers, but I carry it differently now. The size of your jeans and your weight doesn't determine how fit and/or healthy you are.

Answer

I had a better body after birth than I did before pregnancy lol my butt nor hips didn’t get bigger, I lost a ton of weight and my boobs stayed the same (full C) after I was done breastfeeding.

Answer

Definitely curvier but not in a bad way.  My boobs were bigger, hips were wider, but easily got back into shape each time (also stayed very active throughout my pregnancies).  I would say the biggest issue I had was actually that my butt shrunk of all things.  I had to do workouts to round it out again

Answer

I've had 4 kids & my hips did not get wider nor did my butt get bigger 😩😂 I've always been able to get my pre-baby body back each time though. except for my tummy after my 3rd. I developed saggy skin that refused to go away no matter how much weight I lost. I'll be getting a tummy tuck in the near future.
