How long after you had your baby were you able to comfortably fit into your old clothes? I'm just curious. I might Xpost this on 0-6 months too.

Re: ? for 2nd+ timers
lol...I'm hoping by 3 years after baby #1?
I was doing OK after about 4 months. However, I'm now in "woman" sizes and my juniors body is long gone. Pregnancy really changes your shape, so don't be too bummed if you end up having to look for new clothes altogether. I'm learning to love my more maternal shape a little mose each day.
Nothing really took that long for me, except jeans.....I had a may baby and by fall I was in my old jeans. But everything else was within a month or so. HOWEVER, I really didn't like to have anything tight/fitted on for months. My belly still had a pooch, even though the weight came off easily. I was always pretty self conscious about it.
This time, I'm sure it will be the same way. I just hope I'm fortunate enough to get all the weight off within a couple of months. I can deal with wearing looser clothing.
Good luck!
ditto the others...I could 'fit' into my old clothes very quickly, but the 'fit' was totally different.
Things I noticed:
ALL my tops seemed WAYYYY too short. Maybe it was the bfing boobs, maybe it was my pooch, but I am not more drawn to longer tops.
I hated my old low rise jeans as they all gave me a muffin top, even though they actually fit a little bit big.
Junior styles are completely a thing of the past.
I cared more about comfort at first than cramming back into my old clothes. Especially the first few weeks. BUT I actually like my body more now. It's more 'womanly' than 'girly' and I just fill out clothes better.
Around 3 weeks both times. I didn't gain a lot of weight with my last 2 PG, and I've gained less weight this time. I know I'm one of the lucky ones though.?
For me, the fit is the same, except that my abdominal area is "bloated". I've always had a flat stomach, but after 2 c-sections, it doesn't look so good. ?
