Hips...

cookiemomstarrcookiemomstarr member
in 1st Trimester

My hips have definitely widened.  I used to be able to make my 0's work, now I can't even button my 2's!! Ugh it's not just bloat, at least with that I could muffin top it. These pants are no where NEAR closing!!  I tried the hair tie trick...my zipper won't even stay up.  I'm currently living in leggings. 

 The "damage" has been done...my question...do your hips ever go back to the way they were?? Or should I have a farewell ceremony for my pants. :(

    Yes, my hips, thighs and everything else slimmed down to my pre-pregnancy size (size 6) after about 6 months.  I'm actually smaller now a size 2 or 4 depending on make.  

    But I'm sure it's different for everyone!

    I was just talking to my best friend who just had a baby about this same topic today!! She said she actually got smaller after and the baby is only 5months old! She was a 27 28 and shes in a 26 now. I guess it probably depends on the person but hey it gives me hope! She wore something on her hips after the baby was born.

    They will get smaller, but they will get bigger around the 3rd trimester.

    You should try a be band, I can wear my jeans that don't even zip when I wear that! It's really comfy and it smooths out any muffin tops you might have. I am a size 4 right now (pre-pregnancy size) and I can fit into my old 2's with the be band :) They are at Target for $16 I think.

    I was back in my size 0's a few weeks after I had my son - don't say goodbye to them!! I actually ended up narrower than I was to start - odd.
