Postpartum body help please!

Hey mamas! I had my daughter 7 weeks ago, and I have some pretty serious stretch marks, they go all the way to my pubic bone and my husband hates them. Every time he sees them he tells me how disgusting I look and I’m very self conscious of my body now. does anyone know of anything I can do to help them fade or be less noticeable? Thanksxx

A divorce will make them way less noticeable. Girl you look awesome! I wish I had that flat tummy. Stretchmarks might remain but should fade a little eventually. What is really important here.. your own husband should not be talking to you like that.

First of all, you are definitely not disgusting. You just brought a person into this world, your husband should be throwing himself at your feet not making you feel bad about yourself. Secondly, you look AMAZING. It’s only been 7 weeks, give yourself some time. You could always rub some vitamin E oil on your belly if you want to, it’s really good for scars but they will also fade with time.

Honestly you need to punch your husband in the balls because he has absolutely zero right to tell you you’re body looks disgusting. You grew a friggen child inside of you of course your body is going to have marks and look different than it did before! Stretch marks lighten up on their own it does take time though. Don’t itch them and keep your skin moisturized eventually they’ll get lighter. Love your body mama. I’m 7 weeks Pp as well and I have a lot of extra fat, skin and stretch marks from gaining 70 lbs. but your body is so special because it housed your little one, it nourished you’re little one, it is a temple.

If someone considers my body disgusting, they don’t deserve to see what that body can do... stretch marks are not gross. You literally grew a human. Can he do that? No? I’d like to see him try.

This is a husband here, my wife just read me this and I couldn’t even believe she was telling me rhe truth, I had to see for myself. I don’t want to overstep here, but marriage counseling (or frankly just individual counseling for him) is the only thing that can fix that. It’s unconscionable to make those comments right now. You should be focusing on your health and the babies after a full 9 month physical toll you just went through. I see my wife working out now and looking at her body trying to lose weight and I just wish she wouldn’t even worry about it, but I understand it’s been 9 months of not having your body be your own. Regardless, the skin is not the issue here. Best Jordan

He’s trash and you’re amazing. You grew and birthed a human and look amazing. Maybe he can get the next one and learn him some respect.

Disgusting? No. Does he realize that you got them carrying his child? Besides, your body looks great for just having a baby.
