I love my post partum body. And I loved my pregnant body. I am looking back at some photos of me in Mexico and thinking that I was muy flaca! Very skinny. It feels good to have curves, to feel full and womanly. Sure, I could do without the belly now (I know, just 5 weeks post partum), I mean the belly that's hard to get rid of when you're in your 30s, had a baby and don't do abdominal exercise and people constantly ask you "Oh, are you expecting your next?"
But in general, I like how I look now. And that feels good.
I loved my pp body, too. But I liked the belly. I feel womanly with a round belly that has held life. I'm sad that won't come again for me. Live your belly today for me! :-)
ReplyDeleteWork it girlfriend..love your curves, I am still trying to love mine! I was just looking through photos from your trip here in may...wow! It was so amazing to see you here in this house...don't mean to be so dramatic, but it was quite amazing don't you think? Your big pregnant belly, with Lupe on your lap...awsome!
ReplyDeleteAnyhoo, have a job interview Monday...enjoying some peace and quiet...went on a long hike this morning with my dog Szin, left Rosie in bed, and James is right now at this moment climbing Mt. McGloughlin with his 74 year old boss. He just called me from 7000 feet up! Wow! I was too nervous bout going, I am not familiar with that mountain, and it turns out I am doing things here in the house that have needed to be done so all is well...Had a fun birthday...just also looked through some old documents from my follow up MS, and my Dr. said it was probably a blight ovum..which means there was an egg, it just didn't develope...errrr dang progesterone! HA! in some sick way it gives me more peace about it...anyway, love you so much, so glad you have a blog...kiss my babies and one for you too.
XOXO
