my poor body will just never be the same again!! i looked at my poor saggy boobies and flabby belly, (i don't think any number of sit ups will ever get it flat again), stretched marked skin, not to mention the old downstairs parts!! and yet i am considering doing it all again, i must be crazy!
HOLLO i agree with the saggy boob and down stairs bits, what are we thinking!!!!!!! ah of course we'll all do it again, it's all worth it aint it!!
I find it is one of the most depressing things. I am only 12wk post labour and I know I need to be patient but the stretch marks are so dark and big, my belly and hips look like I have been drawn on with purple texta, the worst part is when I was pregnant you couldn't see any stretch marks and I thought I was safe. It wasn't until I had them and my stomach went down did I notice them. My boobs are just revolting and I'm so self concious of them. The worst part is having a good looking and fit husband and now look at me! No amount of exercise is going to bring my boobs back where they are meant to be, I guess I will have to learn to deal with it?
I'm with you on the stretchies but they are fading.
The loose skin gets better over time too. I've come to accept that I will never have a bikini body again or fit into the clothes I used to wear before having kiddies. I have to accept that sometimes I don't look good in the trendiest gear and settle for something that isn't quite as hip!
I've had 3 children (inc 1 c/s) and i am quite fit. I've managed to almost fit back into my pre preg jeams - size 8!! But i eat really healthy, and not much of a junk food fan. Give your self time to go back to normal, you've just had twins!! My friend had twins and 2 years later (its their bday today :D) She's looking great, but she did have some issues for a while there. (oh, and i do have saggy boobs, thats what i get for bf 3 kids!! :D)
It does get better, and you will do it again :)
Hehe, it's good to know that I'm not the only one who thinks like this... I keep thinking about how bad my body is at the moment...saggy, stretchies, flabby, about a million more wrinkles etc. :( But at least our little man is gorgeous and makes me smile. :) I would hate to see what my body looked like if I did this all over again...yikes! ;)
