When do you stop feeling like trash after birth???

Question

I'm 6 months pp and just want to feel like myself again. I hate the way pregnancy changed my body, my hair is horrible, my stomach is fat and loose. Somehow, the hormone relaxin affected my teeth just as much as everything else. I used to get looks and stares and now nobody hardly glances in my direction. I know I should be happy ....& I am but I'm having such a hard time. When do you start to feel back to normal???

Answer

I felt a lot better 1 year pp

Answer

Any day now 🤞

Answer

My skin bothered me more than my weight. I finally got it to clear up well over a year pp. that and getting my hair cut shorter (my hair was horrible during and after pregnancy) really helped to boost my confidence.

Answer

I felt a lot better once I started making time for myself everyday. I would use one or two of my daughter’s naps to exercise (depending on how long her naps were). I also focused on eating lots of veggies and began to feel more like myself around 4 months pp. Just because you’re a mom doesn’t mean you don’t deserve to take care of yourself and feel good. Taking care of my body has always made me feel better. For you it might be getting your hair done, seeing the dentist for your teeth issues, whatever. Just remember that you are still a living breathing human who deserves to love themselves too, not just a mom. In fact you will likely be a better mom and a better example to your child if you set aside time for yourself regularly
