Ok, i complain a lot about my body,i admit it. But there are some things that I love about my post-baby body:
1. I have BOOBS!! woohoo :) never had them before.
2. I am so much stronger from carrying a kid around the past 4 years. I've got some guns :wink:
3. I have cool stretch marks that remind me of all of the incredible changes i've gone through the past 5 years..
*wasn't October 20th Love your Body Day or something?*
I love how strong I am, too! Carrying around a babe for 2 years really gives you a workout.
I also love how much more stamina/endurance/energy I have. I used to be really lazy before getting pregnant and now all I do is run around chasing after the kiddo.
I also just love my body as a whole. I appreciate it a lot more. Having a kid was a really positive experience for me and helped me see how wonderful my body is. I especially love my boobs, lol.
P.S. I love this thread! :D
Yay! Positive body threads!
I love the fact that I'm CURVY-- hips and boobs to the max.
I love my stretch marks, how they're silvery lines that cross my body, dipping lower into deep purple lines as well.
And, for some reason, I photograph really well since giving birth (three years ago, now!)
everything.
good post :)
I'm stronger, too. I have stretchmarks on my boobs - don't know why, but I love them. I'm curvy.
Im still pregnant....but I like the fact that my boobs are huge...abd that I finally have a butt!!
I also like how my body has changed sooo drastically in the matter of months. Its pretty damn cool!
I'm with maja.
I have a new appreciation for everything about me.
Before,I was so self concious about my weight and keeping it down for some reason, but I'm over that. I don't know why, maybe because I know my kid will love me no matter what size I wear and that's pretty much all that matters to me. I'm more comfy with my body now... when I'm not struggling to make it something it's not. Oh yeah and like a few of you have said, I like how strong I've gotten. I didn't think it would happen that fast but when my kid went from 7lbs to 12 lbs pretty much over night it kinda sped things along...
i'm still pregnant, but i am loving my pregnant body. granted, sometimes i'm really uncomfortable, but i love looking in the mirror and realizing that all by myself, i really am capable of sustaining a whole other person. that my legs are strong enough to carry her around all day, that my body is awesome enough to be able to fit her in there. also, of course, i love my new boobs.
but it's just amazing to me. i'm actually looking forward to giving birth just so i can be even more amazed at my ability to take care of business all on my own, without anyone's help, and bring a whole new wonderful person into the world.
i love being pregnant.
My butt is so round now! I didn't show with my daughter 'til I was 5 months except my butt was transformed. It makes me walk differently, like prouder. I like it when I can feel it move from side to side with it's little jiggle.
Well i love the stretchmarks too. They are an amzing reminder of how beau a woman's body is. We don't have to look like thin madels to be real woman. I love my mommy glow. I love my but its a lil big but hey it's mine.
My hips, I feel so womanly with them. I am slightly curvy now and I love that. The stretchmarks really bother me though :( but het, good with the bad right?
i honestly, love the way my fiance loves my stomach. i lost all my baby fat but the abs are kinda sad. but david is always saying how much he loves my stomach so that makes me love my stomach
