"Show off how fat you are"

[cleckner04]

I think each and every one of you look amazing!! Some of you have very young babies and you already look better than I do at nearly 18 months PP. I have literally been asked when the baby is due like 6 times in the past year. I've learned fast that turning it into a joke makes it much less embarrassing for anyone that asks.

You are beautiful hun your body produced a miracle and every one of those marks should be worn with nothing but pride

 

[shellie82]

ok so not showing a flesh one but here is a clothed one from christmas morning, you can see how wide i am lol

 

[CocoaOne]

Wow.

Some of you are soooo hard on yourself! I bet most of you are still a healthy BMI

We should celebrate out bodies, not hate them, after all - they produced the most special thing/s in your life. That's pretty amazing

 

[Tudor Rose]

well said cocoaone

 

[shellie82]

im definitely not a healthy bmi, im classed as morbidly obese

 

[sglascoe]

well after 5 kids i am proud to be a chubby mummy......

 

[WanaBaba]

I think you's are all beautiful xx

 

[future_numan]

I think you are all beautiful A couple of extra pounds doesn't define the spirit we have inside of ourselves. I am 40lbs or 3 stones or so. Heavier than I was before I had Emily. I am proud ( though of course I do admit I would mind loseing a few ) of the extra curves I have. But I have carried four babies in my womb, nursed at lest 36 months of my life, spent countless nights comforting a teething, sick, scared or in need of cuddles babies / child. I have cooked countless meals, cleaned up everything from spilt food to vomit. Done enough laundry to circle the earth twice. I keep a clean house ( well as clean as a house can be with three teenagers and an infant) I have help kiss boo-boo's, healed broken hearts. I have driven more miles than an Indy car driver getting kids to play group, the library, dances, school function, dance lessons, swimming and friends houses.. I think I have earned those extra curves and streach marks. That is the badge that says...Yes, I am a mom

This made me chuckle

I think all of you ladies look beautiful! I am 2weeks and 2days post pregnancy, and have so far lost 26 pounds. I am about 14 pounds away from my pre pregnancy weight. I do have the saggy skin and tons of stretchies. But I look at my beautiful son, and all insecurities kinda go away. Because I am so blessed to have created this wonderful human being, I'll get my body back one day. The stretchies might not go away but I have something wonderful to show for them.

The day I found out I was pregnant

I love this thread. I feel bad about my after baby body and only see pics of celebs after baby bodies.
This thread is a real wake up call that it is normal to not have a slim toned tum and bum 4 weeks after the birth lol

 

[SKATERBUN]

^yeah but i think the thread should be 'show how voluptuous you are' I think when sometimes when you hear the word fat we associate it withd being lazy and over eating, having a baby is a mean feat our bodies go through hell, if you loose the weight quick its a bonus but there shouldnt be any pressure to, Im struggling as I'm in the over 30's zone so it was always gonna be harder and I'm not overeating and I'm definitely always on my toes with LO!

 

[aliss]

Here's another wakeup call ladies!!

Okay... so this is what I look like in a picture now:


Would you like to see the power of a camera from a distance!?


^LOL. Things aren't always as they appear in pictures That would be a closeup of my stomach after a 9.3lb baby and poor genetics. Yes, those pictures taken close together.

So please girls, do not call yourself nasty names like Jabba the Hut, photography is a magical thing.

Some days I love my body...other days I wonder how my OH can possibly fancy me with my belly looking the way it does...hmm xx

 

[SAmummy]

well I don't have any pics, but I did manage to split my pants all the way down the back in the grocery store after having Jed Clearly hadn't lost my baby weight All I could do was sling a baby blanket over my protruding backside and hope no-one would see it while I made a quick getaway

 

[Louise23]

I only have clothed ones.. But i will maybe take more tomoro of just skin if i dare I hate the way i look. I was 17st 2lb and just lost 4lb so A LONG way to go but im gonna get there so im not too fussed..As some said having a baby takesit toll.. ive had 4 in the last 5 n half yrs so i never really got back to where i wanted to be ever anyways. after i had my 4th i went down to 13st 8lbs but didnt stay there long "one more biscuit" etc etc night feeds = snack time u know what i mean! Soooo here we go!!

Alot of people say "u dont look that big ur all in preportion"- other way of sayin fat all over! I dont aim to be really skinny etc but just aimto feel happy bout myown body, Stuff what others think! I wanna feel good about me! Im sure everyone here understands that xx

First is taken when i was on wii at xmas HAHA and other on a night out.. im the one in the black n white striped dress!
