How many of you feel confident with your postpartum bodies?

Question

Be honest ladies! No judgment!

Answer

I think “it’s complicated” describes it best

Answer

Yes!!! 100% 
I went to the gym and lost 150lbs in 10 months. I’m at 106 now and I’m 5’2 and toned. I love myself and my body. I’ve always loved my body.

Answer

I mean I’m not at all comfortable with my body but I love my kids so much, they are worth it. My kids are my everything

Answer

I mean, I’m a little flabbier than idk like & with this last pregnancy I got like 5 stretch marks which I wouldn’t mind if they weren’t so dark. However, I would do it all over again for my sons. They’re so worth it.

Answer

I’m 20lbs lighter than before I got pregnant so I’m good lol

Answer

My baby will stare at and reach out and touch my stretch marks and moved cuddling my soft tummy while nursing. If she thinks I'm beautiful, then I am beautiful.
Plus my husband is amazing and loves every detail of me so that helps.
When the people around you are supportive of you, it makes it easier to be supportive of yourself I've found

Answer

Honestly, I’m not very comfortable with mine but I’m trying. I’m 10 mpp and lost 35 and still have 10 to lose. It doesn’t sound like a lot but it feels like it and it sits differently on my body than it did before. Or maybe it’s just that my belly has so many stretch marks that it’s saggy. 
But I’m really trying to work on being positive about my body because I want to be a good role model for my daughter. I want her to grow up learning to love herself and to respect her body. 
I grew up listening to my mom (who is god damn beautiful) always putting herself down and I think it led to most of my insecurities. I just don’t want that for my daughter.

Answer

I look the best I have since high school. Haha. I was 182lbs prior to getting pregnant, and now I am at 140. I went from a size 14 to 6. 
Sure, everything is a little loose or saggy. Also, I have some stretch marks, but they are “pearly” so they aren’t too noticeable.
Overall, I feel great! I am worried about when I have a second child though. Might not be as great. 😬

Answer

I mean I till jiggle like a bowl of jello like I did before baby... just need to drop 15 lbs to fit into my old clothes. Time will tell. 
But yeah ain’t no shame in the mama game!! You rock that post partum body mama! And hubby had a post partum belly too. It’s cute. 🤣 I think he ate too many chips with me when I was pregnant.

Answer

I gained a lot of weight while pregnant (44lbs) and dropped half a week after giving birth. I'm still 10+lbs over my pre-pregnancy weight but my old jeans fit and I like the person in the mirror most days so I said yes. I had a rough recovery so had to be very kind to my body and started the couch to 5k program at about 5 months pp. It's great to have some time to myself! I'm also breastfeeding so I hope to see a bit more of the weight go once I stop (my goal is 12 months and I'm currently at 7.5).
