Tummy

Is it harder to lose your baby belly the second time round?

After dd1, I was back into my normal clothes within 10 days and stomach down to normal within a few weeks.

This time it's taking forever. I am back into most of my old clothes, but they are tight.....and my stomach! I think someone misplaced their pizza dough! It's disgusting. I think there is quite a bit of stretched skin there which is some of the issue. How long will it take for the skin to go down? I carried all out the front with both babies but dd2 was larger and overdue so i think the whole structure of my stomach got a good work out.

Sigh. Where is my 17 year old body gone?? Lol

Yes is all I sadly have to say.

yep, still got my 2nd born spare tyre and she's now 3yrs old!

If you've got the doughy, crinkled paper skin, that's probably never going to go away, honestly. Mine didn't.

Ahhh PZ!!!! Hit a girl while she is down lol! I hate it. I've never been that self conscious but now I feel ashamed of my stomach. If everything else bounces back why can't that. Sigh.
