I know no matter how much I work out my body will not be as it was before my girls came and after carrying 3 healthy babies I'm ok with what cannot be changed. I've grown people out of cells and brought them into this life and if given the choice if choose them a million times over.
i read this the other too! it is so perfectly worded, and i have had it open on my desktop ever since. the last line in particular is spot on.
Me: 28 DH: 33 TTC since February 2012, married September 2012
DX with Hypothalamic Amenorrhea 2/2013, HSG clear, Bloodwork good, SA great! Started seeing RE February 2013
Having a 32 weeker, I actually don't have a lot of change to my body. I was back in my pregnancy clothes about two weeks after I had him. I am NOT saying this to brag in any way, in fact, it made me a little sad. I was already feeling less than a mother because I didn't have my baby with me and the people would say things like, "you don't even look like you had a baby". I know they were trying to be nice, but it kind of felt like it was a fleeting thing. My body had done this huge thing, creating another person, and there was no real mark of that.
Anyway, I love this article and I wish it was more of a societal norm to accept PP bodies and not be in an all fired rush to "get your body back".
