For those worried about your post baby body...

women need to be realistic when it comes to pregnancy weight and realize we are all different. Expecting to be back to normal in a month is silly. It took you 9 months to get there give yourself 9 months to get back to the ol you and stop pressuring yourselves. You have a new baby, focus on that not the size of your waist line :)

You look amazing! How did you do that?

This is exactly how I feel. Also, something a lot of women need to keep in mind is there are parts of your body that will never go back to the size you were prepreg. Like hips.

Absolutely. I am not at all back to my pre pregnancy weight or body. The point of my post was to give some hope. I was very worried that being older this time and it being my 2nd child I would never look the same. I have hope today. :)

I dunno. Lol My dr kept joking that BC it is a 2nd c-section I get a mini tummy tuck. I'm thinking he was serious! Lol It took much longer with DD, maybe muscle memory works better the 2nd time around?

Bump :)

17 days post c section.. baby boy was 8 lbs 5 oz.. gained 45 lbs. How did you knock off 25 already! I've only lost I think 18 and I'm breastfeeding!.. lol I don't mind the weight though. I just wish I fit in my PP jeans ( not to be confessed with my post pregnancy jeans..those won't fit for quite some time lol ).. tired of sweat pants..oh and this is baby #4 , first c section! Lol

Girl I had hips before pregnancy and yes they are slightly emphasized after 4 kids lol... wish I kept the boobs though lol!
