In an effort to help remind myself what I looked like 4 months post partum, I present to you a little progression:
about 12 weeks pregnant:
three days before I gave birth:
and me today (well, not exactly TODAY … this was about four days ago.):

I think I’m doing OK. Not wonderfully great, but then I was never a swimsuit model to begin with. I can fit into many of my “skinny clothes” so I take that as a good sign. And if I could muster up the willpower to ignore cookies, I think I’d be doing even better.
S’ok, though … I have about 5 more months to turn into Heidi Klum.

Oh gosh, you’re doing amazingly well, dont beat yourself up!

Good luck, man. It took me 5 months after I had my first kid to get back into my jeans. I’m hoping to do as well this time.

I think you’re doing OK too! Actually, I think you’re doing much better than OK. You look great! Also, I love that skirt.

12 weeks after I had Caleb, I was back in my pre-pregnancy jeans. Then I found out I was pregnant again. Now, 2 more babies later, I don’t know if those jeans will ever fit again.
You look great. I hate you.

My skinny clothes are packed away in a box. They’ve been out of fashion for so long, if I don’t hurry up, they will come in and go out of fashion AGAIN before I can ever wear them.
You’re doing GREAT. Don’t beat yourself up!
