Let's hear them ladies!

I feel compelled to take the baby wherever I go. In my mind, all the strangers are like, "Oh, she just had a baby. She gets a pass for looking like that."
I'm letting myself use her as an excuse for a couple more weeks because I am TOTALLY down with the suggested 6-8 weeks/until cleared by your OB.
The way I see myself is pretty shameful right now. I don't need anything but a "go ahead" from my doc for this to turn around, but I'm surprised that I feel this way. I thought by baby #3 I'd be more at peace with my pp body. I was wrong.

This is truly flame-able...

I can't wait to go back to work. I'm thankful for this time to get to know my son and bond with him, but I feel like all I do is change diapers, feed him, and watch him nap.

I am completely ignoring the doctors request to feed my son every 2 hrs. I do my best to keep to that during the day but if I try to feed him every 2 hrs at night he won't even latch he is so tired. So I space it out to 3 hrs and then he eats great for about 15 min on each side. I would rather him eat less often and know he is actually eating than follow the every 2 hrs and have him not eat at one and be starving by the next.

My PP body has me seriously questioning if I want another baby or not. I bought a size up in jeans and they still don't fit thanks to the deflated tire hanging out where my abs used to be. I cannot wait for my 6 week check up and will have a complete meltdown if I'm not cleared to start working out. This whole flab thing is really getting me down.

P.S. I loathe working out. I'm just desperate to look like myself again.

I'm definitely not having another but I'm totally hating my PP body as well.

SO and I try to wake up together at night. He works evening shift and he wanted too so I have taken full advantage of it. After I feed her, he always burps her. My confession, I go to sleep after she eats

Anything anyone gave us for Maggie that said "Princess" or "Diva" or similar went straight to the giveaway pile. Sorry not sorry.

Also, we've banned the Disney princesses. I'm going to teach her to save herself.

DH and I are totally in this boat as well.

we will not encourage the princess or diva mentality.

I have two little girls and I'm so with you on this.

I call the early stages "managing imports and exports". I love him dearly, and take full advantage of the snuggles, but I feel like the majority of my time is spent feeding him and then cleaning his butt.

All of my pre-pregnancy jeans are too big on me and while I should be thankful that I weigh less than my pre pregnancy weight, I am more frustrated because I don't have the money for a new set of clothes and I hate wearing loose jeans!

Same here. I know I should be "happy" that I'm below my pre-pregnancy weight but now I look like a slob because my clothes hang off of me. I was overweight before being pregnant and getting pregnant made me eat better so I lost weight the entire time I was pregnant. Now I just hate the way my body looks because it looks like I'm in a deflated fat suit

I responded to my 1st TP and FFFC posts a day late. Group slacker. When I am mad at DH I can be impatient with my LOs. In a construction zone (no pullover) with newborn DD screaming her head off I yelled at her "shut the F--- up" (confession held since 2011).
