Just lovely.

We have Henry's christening on Sunday. It has taken me 3 horrendous trips to the mall (2 with the baby, 1 on my own) to find a stupid dress to wear. My once size A tatas are now a size D and don't seem to be going anywhere. I have lost most of the baby weight but still can't seem to find anything to hide my baby gut. Last week I finally found a dress that I liked. Held my girls in place and cinched my waist. I tried it on tonight-DH went to zip me and within 10 seconds the dress burst open. After 30 minutes of trying to fix the zipper I had to rip it off of me. Ughhhhh!. I feel like a fat peice of poo.

    Awww! Hug! Post baby body is SOOOOOO hard! Nothing fits like it used to and your proportions are all off. I cried many many times when trying to look cute. I feel your pain! Hoping another dress presents itself quickly and without too much hassle!

    Ugh I'm sorry. I hope you find something suitable ASAP. I know I looked horrendous for my twins baptism but I just care as long as it fit.

    I feel the exact same way. None of my work clothes fit me and there's no way in hell I'm putting on maternity clothes when I go back to the office in 3 weeks. I guess I need to find stretchy pants... :(

    Hugs hun - post baby body is the worst!

    I've just started to have normal days where I feel like I don't look 4 months pregnant.  Just days, not a consistent feeling.  I think I fasted for 24 hours for the boys christening. :)

    Me: PCOs DH: Perfect!

    Sister I feel you. I  had the HARDEST time with my post baby body. NOTHING looked the same and I was really upset for a long time..My bubbies.which were large C before J were now deflated Ds were all saggie and flat like pancakes..and my arms ugh..it was where all my baby fat decided to go..they were huge (still are) and really unattractive..I really hated the way I looked and I had a hard time with my body image. I just didn't look/feel like the same person and I had to put on a suite for J's bris right after I gave birth..Also, I have NO idea what my body is going to look like after this baby. I am going to need some serious nips and tucks!

    My only suggestion is to find something that you like and invests in some good spanks, get a chunky necklace, and some cute shoes..and hope that draws away from all the areas that you are not happy with..

    That is the worst feeling.  The scale says one thing (yay!) but clothing is totally off . . . I don't know how to dress my new body either.  Good luck with the dress hunt!

    huge hugs!!!

    post-baby body stuff SUCKS. it's so hard to find things that fit. for me (and my mom, when she was pregnant), our ribcages actually expanded to fit the baby in since we have pretty narrow frames naturally, so even with the baby weight lost i can't wear my old dresses because they're too tight around the ribcage. grrr. >(

    silver lining though . . . nothing wrong with having D-cup tatas! bet DH isn't complaining. ;)
