I don't feel any different 'down there' and I had to check my episiotomy scar every week to see whether it was healing or infected. Very lucky not to have an infection with such an open wound. I cant see the actual scar at all but my perineum looks different, there is a ridge the runs down to it and the bottom of my labia has been cut through but healed relatively well. So if I were to have sex with a random man and if he looked at me 'down there' I am not sure he would think that I have had a baby or that it looked at all weird.
Boobs are a bit sad looking. They are bigger than they were pre-pregnancy, but they are not as perky. But I wouldn't feel ashamed to get my breasts out at the swimming pool or in the gym, they don't look TOO battered. Tbh, after my 34B's exploded into 34E's when my milk came in and then went up and down to a 34DD then I was expecting them to look worse.
Everything else, kinda looks normal. I am the heaviest I have been in years and as I had a super energetic job I used to be super toned and now I am lounging about eating out all the time I DO need to tone up. But 24hrs of work a week when I go back should sort my body out. I was lucky not to get a single stretch mark or any loose skin so its all about getting fit now.
Spunky- my social life since leaving work and starting maternity leave has never been so good! Before I was working horrible back to back shifts, nights and weekends and all my friends were nurses/doctors too and we never managed to get the same working rota! Now, I have loads of mummy friends, 3 of my work colleagues are on mat leave and we meet up regularly. 'Most' days I am out after Tabbys morning nap, usually lunch out or at a friends or I host friends coming over and we have baby play time or we are naughty and go shopping!
