“I felt an overwhelming sense of appreciation and love for my body and everything it had gone through to produce our daughter.”
"I loved my pregnant body, but am having a difficult time coming to terms with my postpartum one. This was taken a day after my emergency C-section and it looks like I am still pregnant! I have multiple stretch marks all over my body, and a giant, itchy scar. My boobs feel deflated and numb from breastfeeding. I'm now nine months postpartum and while I’ve lost a lot of weight, it has been a huge emotional and physical struggle to learn to love my ‘new’ body.
Just know that even if it’s a huge sacrifice to your body, it will be worth it when your baby smiles at you. I also want you to know that it’s OK to not feel OK all the time about these changes. It doesn’t make you selfish or a horrible mother to mourn your previous life and body. This is such a huge undertaking and it all takes time and getting used to.""Here I am at one week postpartum.
