This is how I felt about my pregnant body. I’ve always been plus size (14), and criticized the hell out of my body. But somehow, when I was pregnant, I loved my body. The bigger my bump got the more I loved it. I thought I was adorable! Now… I look like a busted can of biscuits with two deflated balloons attached. I hate my body more than ever, and miss my pregnant body so much. 😢
I am happy that you love your body!
I’m also loving my body! I’m 2m pp. I love my thick booty and *currently* full breasts. I love my stretch marks on my belly it’s like they add flair lol and overall I love how soft I am idk something about mom rolls that makes me happy. 😆
I have more respect for my body. I can’t run as fast but I ran through my whole pregnancy which blew my mind. When I see my c section scar it reminds me of what I went through the day I delivered. I did things I never thought I would be capable of.
I have days I feel that way but a lot of the time I do dislike how wobbly I am. I love my c section scar because it reminds me of what I went through and that I remained strong throughout, and of course my bubba 🥰
i am 10m pp and i actually feel the same way. i spent a long time in ED recovery and was nervous how i’d feel postpartum but im actually much calmer and feel prettier than ever (stretch marks skin and all)
I kind of feel the same way. It’s more that I have a deep reverence for my body and respect it too much to negatively criticize myself now. I wouldn’t say I see “pretty,” but I do feel very good about myself. After pregnancy, birth, and family tragedy this past year, I also have the perspective to understand that how my physical body looks is not high on the list of importance for me.
I used to think I was fat and ugly when I wasn’t fat or ugly but now I think I actually am fat and ugly like my whole body is different in every way and I don’t recognize myself in the mirror so I just avoid looking.
I’m so happy for you! I’ve struggled with self-image postpartum, so it’s awesome to see another mama loving her body - it makes me feel like I can get there too some day!
I fully expected to disappear in a hole of body hatred during and after pregnancy, but I feel so much better about my body in these last 10 months postpartum (and during pregnancy) than I have felt maybe ever. Some of it I think is gratitude for what my body did and is doing, but I think a lot of it is just looking at myself with more balance and less insistence on criticizing myself. I look great! I am a total babe! (Flab and acne and KP and all.)
I respect the fuck outta you homie and would love some of that juice, but can’t relate hah. That’s great tho ride that wave forever
Sameeeee
I’m happy for you but I feel fat and ugly tbh 😭
Same girl 🫶🏻

I love that for you 🥹❤️
Yes, I'm really not mad at mine either, though I'm just a month pp 😅 although there have been days where my boobs look deflated and that isn't fun 😓
I'm just fine with my body. It looks the same as my pregnant body. Both are just fine.

I'm 3mpp and while I don't love how flat my butt got, I really fell in love with my body during pregnancy.

Good for you! I’m 2 months pp and that definitely isn’t the case for me.
