7,308,701 | mommit | Screw what anyone thinks. I had people try to guilt trip me because I didn’t have a big bump. My baby was healthy and so was I. So happy you feel great postpartum too |
7,308,702 | mommit | That’s awesome I gained about 25 pounds over 3 years doing fertility treatments. I’ve since had 2 babies 14 months apart. I gained 14 lbs with my first & lost 11 lbs then 17 lbs with my second. I haven’t lost any of the weight yet from the second but am comfortable knowing I made 2 humans with this body & I wil... |
7,308,703 | mommit | That's wonderful! I'm happy with my postpartum body too! I was very underweight when I got pregnant and pregnancy made me finally start taking care of my health, eat well, take my vitamins etc. After having my baby, for the first time ever I'm in the healthy BMI range! |
7,308,704 | mommit | I was at my heaviest when I got pregnant for the first time. I had hyperemesis twice and actually lost a lot of weight while pregnant. It was a terrible experience but a nice results. |
7,308,705 | mommit | I am astonished every time I get undressed how good I look! Seven weeks postpartum and I love my body. I’m still on the large side but I wear it well. And my boobs? Yesssss |
7,308,706 | mommit | Before I got pregnant I was 163. I hated that number. I had gained quite a bit of weight after getting down to 130. I also ate healthier. I gave birth to a healthy baby and weighed 148 after I gave birth. I lost even more breastfeeding. My hips are bigger, which makes my waist look smaller. I love my postpartum body. ... |
7,308,707 | mommit | Me haha but I think I just got EXTREMELY lucky! I didn’t gain any weight my pregnancy (and I felt Like I ate a decent amount), my baby is healthy and I’ve already lost 18lbs in under two weeks postpartum so I’m less then where I started. Granted, i did have weight to loose and still do. |
7,308,708 | mommit | This is wonderful!! Good job! :D |
7,308,709 | mommit | Congrats girl! I'm happy for you, and a little jealous! |
7,308,710 | mommit | You go girl |
7,308,711 | mommit | That's fantastic! |
7,308,712 | mommit | Women support women! Keep it up sis! |
7,308,713 | mommit | That’s awesome! |
7,308,714 | mommit | I don’t relate LOL but I wish I did! I’m happy for you. You deserve to celebrate and love yourself. |
7,308,715 | mommit | You go girl |
7,308,716 | mommit | That’s amazing!!!! Enjoy it!!! It’s rare people feel this way these days so why not be proud of yourself and your body. I felt the same way, I’m normally very skinny and I loved that I had some curves and my boobs were way bigger! Now I’m back to my skinny self and would love to have my post partum body back |
7,308,717 | mommit | I hate that it’s almost looked down upon for loving your body after pregnancy. It absolutely shouldn’t be offensive to anyone that someone else is happy. Good for you |
7,308,718 | mommit | Losing weight doesn’t mean you are starving yourself or your baby, my mom lost weight with me, so glad you are loving your body and having confidence |
7,308,719 | mommit | I lost 80lbs with each pregnancy. I did nothing, not fasting. Not working out. Just followed the "Not supposed to eat sushi" style rules. My body just really goes after my fat levels when i am pregnate. love your body!! It's the only one you get. |
7,308,720 | mommit | I loved my pp body too! I did gain a lot of weight but I guess it was a lot of fluid because I came home from the hospital 20 lbs lighter. But I felt so confident after the feat of giving birth and I felt so sexy. I think that’s not the typical experience lol and I admit it was weird. |
7,308,721 | mommit | Im happy for you!! You deserve to feel beautiful and your best. If you are happy with your body thats what counts! It doesnt matter if other people get pissed, you know you didnt harm your baby, if you were starving yourself you couldnt produce breast milk that takes ALOT of calories. People can be so hateful when they... |
7,308,722 | mommit | I felt this way too... then 5 months later I got my period and in the last 6 months I gained 20 pounds. I'd rather be pregnant than deal with my period. For whatever reason I binge and crave unhealthy things weeks before and after. I'm so sad, I was feeling so good about myself :(. |
7,308,723 | mommit | Good for you!! One of my friends weighed less at the end of her pregnancy than she did at the start (she was also very overweight and took good care of herself throughout). Kudos to you for feeling body positive! We need to have those things!! |
7,308,724 | mommit | WOOO! That is a reason to celebrate! Please don't let negative comments get you down, you worked so so hard and have no reason to feel guilty. I understand how your feeling but in a different direction. I feel guilty that I have such a great marriage when all of my friends seem to be really struggling. However reading ... |
7,308,725 | mommit | I wish I could up vote this twice! I've had a very similar experience and it's a little surreal. |
7,308,726 | mommit | Duck yea girl! Rock that bod!! I’ve got juggy jugs for the first time too and it’s pretty amazing! |
7,308,727 | mommit | Don't be shy about loving your mommy body, honey. You are beautiful no matter what. And yes the mommy boobies are a plus |
7,308,728 | mommit | You deserve to shamelessly love your body. Don't feel bad about it. |
7,308,729 | mommit | Get it girl! Don’t let anyone poop on your happiness. I don’t 100% relate but I’m currently like 2/3 pounds from my pre-pregnancy weight and I’m very excited! I don’t want to have to “accept” a body that doesn’t make me happy just because I’m a mom (I feel like I’ve heard this before from others, like kids automaticall... |
7,308,730 | mommit | You should never have to feel guilt for loving your body! Your body has done an amazing thing! You were able to eat healthy and move the way you wanted to during pregnancy and that is a massive accomplishment and stroke of luck and determination. You should be proud of that, look at what you did and you made your baby ... |
7,308,731 | mommit | Don’t feel guilty for loving your body and for using your pregnancy as motivation to make changes that make you feel good and are good for you! If your baby is happy and healthy, and mom is happy and healthy, then you’re doing it right! I got some hip injuries from exercising while pregnant (was already double joint... |
7,308,732 | mommit | Absolutely can’t relate as I am 5 months pp and fat as ever but I’m happy for you! You should feel good! I feel like a beluga troll lmao |
7,308,733 | mommit | Congrats! I feel like it’s even more difficult to eat clean while pregnant (between cravings and food restriction actually restrict a lot of foods that help me stick to a healthier diet). Any advice you could share for people looking to do the same? Based on my current weight, I’m only recommended to gain 15-25 lbs. I ... |
7,308,734 | mommit | While I’m not the most comfortable with the extra pooch I feel like giving birth and breastfeeding has cured my body dysmorphia. I look at my baby and my body and I’m like fuck yeah you made this beautiful little girl AND you produce all this food to nourish her? Fuck yeah body I’m so proud of you I LOVE YOU BODY!! |
7,308,735 | mommit | I lost half of my baby weight within 10 days of giving birth. Then 8 months later, the world went to shit and I gained all of it back. 2.5 years later I weigh the same as I did the day I gave birth. And I’m trying to be ok with that. Could I be healthier? Heck yes. Will I try to make healthier choices? Yes. But will I ... |
7,308,736 | mommit | I am so genuinely glad to hear you have a positive postpartum relationship with your body. Congratulations on your hard work, you earned it. :-) |
7,308,737 | mommit | The same thing happened to me!!! |
7,308,738 | mommit | Congratulations love! I’m so happy you’re feeling good in your skin. Also your body did an amazing thing and that is worthy of love! |
7,308,739 | mommit | Nah. You're fine! Congratulations on the baby and on the hot bod!! |
7,308,740 | mommit | Don’t let anyone else judge you. We go through so much already with pregnancy and taking care of a new human. I don’t get why women have to tear down other women for their successes. I’m very happy you feel so confident and happy and you should because you worked hard for it. I’m due in a week with my second and hope t... |
7,308,741 | mommit | I LOVED my postpartum body! I was a stick before with no figure. Stayed small and size was the same but now have some hips and a little bit of a booty! I’m pregnant again so we will see what happens this time around. Don’t feel guilty, your body did an amazing thing!! |
7,308,742 | mommit | I unapologetically love my post partum body! Children did my body well |
7,308,743 | mommit | I so relate! I feel like pregnancy and postpartum especially had me in a great headspace to appreciate my body, and to take the best care of it I could. |
7,308,744 | mommit | Yessssss!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for posting this. My weight fluctuated so much before my kids. While I was pregnant, and the 6 months after I freaking loved my body. It was the one time I felt like my body was doing what it was supposed to do. I gained 12-15lbs with each pregnancy, lost it all and then some in the 3 we... |
7,308,745 | mommit | I didn’t gain a ton during pregnancy, but I wasn’t very active because I had some issues with bleeding. I’ve been slowing exercising and dieting in the postpartum time since, and I’m feeling stronger and looking about the same if not a bit better. It’s just the way it shook out. No guilt needed! You worked hard and con... |
7,308,746 | mommit | Happy for you. I think its great to love your body no matter what weight or shape.. Prebaby i was always trying to fix my body. Always trying new diets. I had an ed in my late teens early 20s and my body never felt good enough. I had ankle surgery in 2016 and my exercise and eating habits changed and I gained alot of w... |
7,308,747 | mommit | I’m 16 months out now and I found that at about 10 months, the weight just fell off so now I’m about 15 lbs less than my pre-pregnancy weight. Also I’ve got some nice arm muscles again! I chalk it up to chasing and lifting the kid lol. She’s a workout! Hope it it’s the same with the next one. |
7,308,748 | mommit | Sometimes people can take it personally when you praise yourself, especially about something a lot of women struggle with. It's generally seen as rude or arrogant. It's also rude to make comments about your body, though, so if they're bringing it up first, feel free to offend. |
7,308,749 | mommit | Don't ever feel guilty for loving your body! Well done you for taking action to eat healthy and move your body. Anyone who has anything negative to say about that should keep it to themselves! |
7,308,750 | mommit | I am exactly at my pre pregnancy weight, but I lost almost all my muscle tone. My ass is gone and even light chores leave me breathless and I’m sore the next day. Women’s bodies are so rarely just a number on a scale.. I’m thrilled that you love your body! Enjoy it :) |
7,308,751 | mommit | Good for you! People try to pull you down out of envy and it's not fair! Please don't feel guilty and enjoy your new vibes. Proud of you |
7,308,752 | mommit | Be proud! Fuck the haters. You’re taking care of your body! |
7,308,753 | mommit | Yea mama! Love that amazing strong body! |
7,308,754 | mommit | No shame in that at all OP! I’m glad you love your postpartum body! I was about 130 before I got Pregnant and got up to 184 during, I’m still trying to adjust and love my new postpartum body but I’m already back down to 159, yay! Point being you did good ate right and exercised all through your pregnancy you 100% deser... |
7,308,755 | mommit | After my hormones have gone back to normal, I have loved my PP body. I think your post is awesome, not enough women appreciate all the hard work their bodies do through and after pregnancy. Cheers lady! Here's to loving our mom bods |
7,308,756 | mommit | I know what you mean!!! I posted for a breastfeeding sub asking for help because I dropped to the underweight category after 6 months PP. I was always small, but not underweight. I got a bunch of downvotes because it came off as a humbe brag. *Not intentional,* but it feels so taboo to talk about!! In my case it's not ... |
7,308,757 | mommit | My body is exactly the same as it was pre pregnancy now (6 months postpartum) adding a nice scar! I can’t complain at all and sit in silence hearing my friends complain |
7,308,758 | mommit | That’s amazing. Idk I think we should all cheer each other on regardless. Don’t feel guilty! Just because I am not yet where I want to be doesn’t mean i should rob you of your accomplishments. That’s amazing. Pat yourself on the back, love your mom bod, do all the things. |
7,308,759 | mommit | Why should you feel guilty? Enjoy these moments as they are! Everybody is responsible for their own body weight and now you are proud of yours and that is wonderful. Happy mom, happy baby. I gained 22 pounds during pregnancy, and after a natural birth and breastfeeding I rapidly lost them and I know how you feel, I can... |
7,308,760 | mommit | Fuck yeah! You love your bod, don't let anyone tell you no otherwise! |
7,308,761 | mommit | Strut it Mama! You deserve it! |
7,308,762 | mommit | Can’t relate on the weight loss, but can on the boobs. Seriously good for you! I’m sorry you felt like you couldn’t be happy about it. You put in the work, please enjoy it! Don’t let anyone take your happiness. |
7,308,763 | mommit | As someone who doesn't have kids yet, it's very reassuring to hear that someone is as happy or happier with their post partum body! All I've seen are people that are sad and insecure about how pregnancy changed their body and it's scary! |
7,308,764 | mommit | SAME! Pregnancy kick started my healthy living. Now I look better than ever! |
7,308,765 | mommit | I am just so happy for you! This random internet stranger would like to give you permission to not minimize your own happiness for the sake of others. If they truly care for you, they will not be hurt by you celebrating yourself. |
7,308,766 | mommit | Wowwww!! Amazing!! Congrats!! |
7,308,767 | mommit | I'm just gald another woman loves herself and is comfy in her body! Good for you! |
7,308,768 | mommit | I don’t relate because I gained so much weight from breast feeding. BUT IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU! You shouldn’t feel guilt for being proud! If I was you I’d be shouting from the rooftops. Good job keeping a little human alive and for keeping yourself healthy & happy. Get it Girl P.s. please share your secrets |
7,308,769 | mommit | That’s awesome! Glad you’re happy with your body Gives me a bit of motivation! |
7,308,770 | mommit | After the birth of my first son, and after the initial healing, I actually felt really fascinated about my body. I have fairly wide hips and I've always hated my bum because it was wide and somewhat square. After giving birth it felt/looked like my very square shaped hips had rounded out, giving me a distinct hourglass... |
7,308,771 | mommit | I lost so much fluid when I had my c-section that I looked like me again! I was puff-free and felt amazing. I was desperate to stay that way, but my chronic inflammation came back with a vengeance. It was nice while it lasted though. So I feel you. |
7,308,772 | mommit | I'm so glad for you! |
7,308,773 | mommit | Same here! I’m really only about 5lbs or less heavier than pre pregnancy but pre pregnancy I was constantly trying to lose and always super conscious of it. I am happier now ~5 lbs heavier than I’ve ever been! |
7,308,774 | mommit | 35+4 weeks and have put on almost 40 lbs. I love my body, never in my life have I been satisfied with my weight/body. Pregnancy has put in perspective how amazing my body really is. I am literally growing another human and loving myself. |
7,308,775 | mommit | Same! I’m so lanky and weak! I gotta hit the gym. |
7,308,776 | mommit | Though I only gained 11 pounds during my pregnancy I feel like I lost muscle! So it’s not just me. I was wondering if I was imagining it. |
7,308,777 | mommit | Nearly everyone i know got long term bigger boobs and more curvaceous; i got super sick in pregnancy, got way skinner (skeletal ribs and all) have tiny deflated boobs i'm hoping that once i stop breastfeeding my body will adjust but i'm trying to be grateful to my body that it grew my son from conception to 6 months... |
7,308,778 | mommit | Just letting you know there are a bunch of us who can’t lose any weight breastfeeding, but the weight comes off easy when we stop. :) It’s oddly different for a lot of us. |
7,308,779 | mommit | My butt is gone too |
7,308,780 | mommit | Wow! I could've wrote this! Before kids, my body was absolutely banging with curves exactly where they needed to be. After kids, my shape is... not ideal. Losing all the weight fast was great but I don't know how to dress myself anymore OP I'm so happy for you!!! It's tough to see all the posts about moms struggling... |
7,308,781 | mommit | I should add: my boobs went away after weaning, but yes they were great while they lasted |
7,308,782 | mommit | I have faith you will get there! Good luck on your journey!! Don’t put too much thought into your weight! You’re a beautiful mama inside and out |
7,308,783 | mommit | Hey its never too late, we all go through seasons of life where maybe we aren't as on the ball as we hope to be. That doesn't mean we have to stay there! I believe in you, you did it before, you can do it again! |
7,308,784 | mommit | same ! I adore my post partum body bc before pregnancy I was all muscle, I was a gymnast for 14 years and then cheered after in college. Post partum i've lost allll my muscle and finally have the more girly figure i've always wanted |
7,308,785 | mommit | My boobs are definitely deflated (with some stretch marks), but I like my nipples better, somehow? I think for me it was a mixture of being done breastfeeding, but also my alcohol consumption has increased since covid. I couldn’t tolerate any amount of a hangover with really young kids, so never drank, but will have a ... |
7,308,786 | mommit | Breastfeeding took me down to a skeleton with...F? Cups? I don’t know. I exclusively lived in nursing tanks with no specific measurements. Anyway, once I weaned, it took about 2 months for the weight to start coming back. Now my butt and thighs have reclaimed their space, and my boobs shrank back down to their usual te... |
7,308,787 | mommit | See, I am a fan of a muscular body. Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder! |
7,308,788 | mommit | And you can get a fever too |
7,308,789 | mommit | I just cleared out a three day clog. The pain was unbearable. Now my boob is underperforming. |
7,308,790 | mommit | I once nursed one out...cried and screamed it out for 30 min straight while taking breaks to force myself to remark how adorable my daughter is in order to help relaxation/letdown. My husband took clogs/mastitis REAL serious after that. Amazingly, my daughter (less than 3 months old at the time) sleepily ate through th... |
7,308,791 | mommit | I laughed at this. A blocked duct, yes. A full blown blocked duct for more than one day? I think the only equivalent is the anesthesia wearing off mid abdominal surgery. |
7,308,792 | mommit | I've never had a lego progress to mastitis though :/ |
7,308,793 | mommit | I used to get clogged ducts every other day, really bad. Then I started taking sunflower lecithin and I never got one again. It really works. |
7,308,794 | mommit | The accuracy!!!! |
7,308,795 | mommit | I almost ended up being hospitalized from a blocked duct getting infected |
7,308,796 | mommit | Hahahahaha!!!! So true! |
7,308,797 | mommit | I was thinking more of going through labor and then childbirth haha. Not that dramatic but dang I hate clogged ducts with a passion. |
7,308,798 | mommit | Clogged ducts are the bane of my existence. |
7,308,799 | mommit | These are awful, I actually had to stop completely on my left side because it was happening constantly as well as milk blisters which are even worse |
7,308,800 | mommit | I currently have a week old bleb that is slowly going away. I squeezed and pricked the fricking thing first day. It didn't burn as much now. It's on the top area of my nipple so it's hard for my baby girl to suck it out. |
