Babies Ruin Bodies

Whelp...this made me cry. Or maybe lack of sleep. Or hormones. But for fuck's sake, I cried:


(Don't worry, it's not sad).

Re: Babies Ruin Bodies

  • I reposted this on Facebook the other day. It's so wonderful.

  • 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 really needed this today....it was definitely a rough one and this helped put things into perspective!

  • I reported this from Facebook the other day, love this!!
  • I reposted on FB as well, it's beautiful. I pick my daughter over my pre-baby body, hands down.
  • 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".
