After Pregnancy Belly?

[tay]

hey, my tummy was back to pre preg in 2 days, back in all trousers in 9 days. I was very very lucky! I didn't get one stretch mark during pregnancy... I seen to be getting a bloody new one every day now! I've just found them in my lady garden!! Will look for some pic's. (of my tummy, not my lady garden!)

This is my first so i can't honestly say i know how you feel.. But look at it like this.. You've got a beautiful baby out of it, so surely it's all worth it?.. And as for the OH I'm sure he loves you no matter what your belly looks like!

ta i agree and true, it doesnt bother him, but it makes me feel so repulsive
i didnt have any stretch marks till 36 weeks and thought id been lucky but he just kept stretching me lol i had a huge bump though..

38 weeks..

Yep big bump lol, how much did he weigh? And your bele is nothing to be bothered about.. You've got a flat stomach (a thing most women crave!!) Who's going to see the stretch marks under your top eyy? And they'll disappear in time .. Like I said before the stretch marks are there to show what beautiful boy you have... And I'm sure you'd rather have him and stretch marks rather than not have him and no stretch marks eyy? hope your okay xx

Haha made me laugh.. And you were very lucky then! Wonder why your getting the stretch marks now though? I haven't got any yet.. Hope I don't but if I do, I do, I'll have my little girl thats all that matters

congrats to all u ladies who managed to get back you pre pregnancy belly, im still trying to figure out how to get mine back i got this belly flop over going on right now not sure what to do with it

 

[tay]

i have no idea, maybe as i lost the weight so quick? I expected them on my boob's as i'm breast feeding but they are now on my hip's, legs, and bottom of my back! All signs of my little dude though so not too fussed! Good luck with your little girl.

Me just before having her and 11days after

I had two pregnancies in just over 2 years so was expecting my poor tummy to be quite bad but I got lucky in as much as I have no stretchmarks at all.

I do however have a wobbly belly! In all honesty, where I didn't pay for it with my tummy I certainly did with my boobs; they're awful

Anyway, here's some pics:

39+2 weeks pregnant


2 days PP


12 days PP


Now at 10 weeks PP



Oh and just to add I'm a size 12-14

It totally depends on your body - my stomach went completely back to normal with my first. I can dig up a pic if you're interested.
We'll see what this next one does to me though!!

 

[Louppey]

k you know what, I'm gona be brave and show my stretchmarks..I didn't really get any until the last few weeks of pregnancy, and most of them showed up a few days before birth...all through the pregnancy I wanted them and never had any, now I wish I hadn't wanted them quite so much lol.....here goes..!!

(took this pic about 10 mins ago)

Your stretchmarks are very similar to mine!!! Nothing to be ashamed of

I had a csection and now have a sort of bum bag type flap I hate it, it makes me want to cry. No idea how to get rid of it though I can deal with the stretchmarks - but not that.

 

[emsiee]

My stomach took a while to go back to normal after both pregnancies, about 5-6 months, but its even got better over the last 2 months or so too. I do have flabby, loose skin though, but its not fat, and its not noticeable through clothes
After my son, (my 1st) my tummy was more or less back to normal after 6 months, it does depend on your own body though.

I dont have any pics straight after birth or even up to 4 months after, there was no way I was taking any pics then! lol

This is me 10 months after my 2nd child. You can still see I do have flabby, loose skin, but Im happy with it tbh. (Excuse the marks on the mirror! lol)

 

[tristansmum]

Im 3 weeks on after a c section, does the flap of skin really ever go? Im trying not to lose weight too quick as I guess this would make it worse.

mine has xx

Well again.. Someones lucky!! And to say you've had two in 2 years.. I wouldn't know.. And tbh, you look smaller than a 12-14 to me

How long was it before it went? And did you do anything (diet/exercise etc)?

I want rid of mine!!!!!

Ohh I hope mine goes back flat! Hehe

 

[sausages]

I have a god-awful belly now. It's so depressing! was always a slim size 10/12 but now i am a 12/14 which is fine, but the aforementoned bum bag style flap really gets me down. I've had 4 pregnancies now and i just know that no matter how much weight i loose i will never get rid of the overhang unless i have surgery. There's no way i want to post a photo. It's hideous!

No dieting, no exercise, was just very good stomach muscles, luck and genes I think. Ok don't get me wrong, I'm not a stick at all but I'm happy with the way things turned out.

I hope I'm as lucky as you! You've got a great figure! And didn't you get any stretch marks either? (Don't look like you have) And was you just eating normal? Cause if im honest pre pregnancy I ate what I want when I want and didn't put a lb on, and NONE was heathly lol.. I just hope it's same when I've had little one! I've only put 12lb on up to now.. But I feel HUGE!! :/

 

[MrsVenn]

I actually really watched what I ate. I snacked on fruit and ate wholegrains only. Avoided sugar a lot and was just very healthy, didn't stop the weight gain though, but it may have helped with my waist going back to normal, I don't know really. Nope no stretchies either now I'm eating what I want again which is still pretty balanced but smaller portions. I just have A bit of everything but not go crazy

 

[MrsVenn]

Oh and thank you for the compliment,Boone has said that to me of late
