I guess this is a bragplaint (?). Fifteen months out, I am finally 5 pounds below my pre-pregnancy weight. But, I am two sizes larger in pants and one in shirts. And I have been working out regularly, which I never did pre-kids.
Anyway, it is super annoying. I want to fit in my old clothes. I estimate I will have to be 20 pounds lighter than when I got pregnant to fit in them!
oh, I already have bigger clothes - I would've been screwed this past year without them. I just feel a little miffed about it, but oh well, she is worth it.
My stomach is fluffy. I've been down to my pre-pregnancy weight for a long time and even below.
I guess I'm more comfortable with the idea that my clothes don't fit the same since this was my second pregnancy. I'm still determined just not kicking myself for it.
Yeah my body has never been the same since DS1 and he's 8. I was actually in the best shape of my life for the 3 years leading up to getting KU with DS2 but was still two sizes bigger in jeans than pre- 1st pregnancy. To give you FTMs some hope I'm now still the same jeans size post baby #2 as I was post baby #1. So at least the 2nd baby didn't cause more "harm".
Somewhat related, after becoming a mom I feel more modest and don't want to wear anything form fitting. Stuff that I used to wear might technically fit, but I don't feel confident in it.
Re: Anyone lose the baby weight but still bigger size?
