Pre-pregnancy. I want that body back after baby! I hope my stomach bounces back to its original shape. Any tips mommies?

@camillesmom ok! I'm about to send you a request! My username is mmmirage

I was wrong is klazear90

You will do fine, it's going to be painful at first bit just keep in mind is way healthier for your baby and cheaper! I have one but don't go on it much but I think my name on there is kel1990 let me check

@camillesmom lol they better help me right because I'm so sensitive, I'll prob take longer to heal up before I go anywhere! I actually don't have an fb :( I have instagram tho! They also have direct msgs! Do u have one?

No problem depends on the hospital, mine they told me the nurse can help with it but I got way more information from the actual lactation consultant. Just make an appointment for when you leave if they can't come to the hospital, the nurse helped me while I was thew but got way more information afterwards! Also that birth control is called the Heather tablet or norethindrone tablet usp 0.35mg. Hey do you have Facebook would probably be resort to talk on that then commenting back and forth lol

@camillesmom oh wow thanks! That was a big help!! Will they also help me latch in the hospital?

Yea breastfeeding hurts at first, I highly suggest after getting out the hospital make sure you see a lactation consultant, they will help make sure your babies latch is correct, cause I know the latch definitely for me wasn't correct and made it even more painful that it was suppose to be, so see onr of them and for dry cracked nipples you can use coconut oil, just rib some in your nipple and you don't have to wash it off before feeding, also I think target or babies r us makes something called hydrogel. Get some of those or ask the hospital for a couple, it's like a cooling gel pad you put over your nipples in between feedings to relieve some of the pain

@californiahaley lollll 😂

@mmmirage, yeah my dad's had no issue making fun of me my whole life he just laid off while I was pregnant lok

@tattooedwho ok that's the perfect description and sounds a bit painful at first but ofcourse doable ! I'm so gna do it! My sister in law lost like 20 lbs the first month doing it! And then started dieting, lost her milk supply and now baby is very underweight :( he's only 14 lbs and is 6 months old!!!

Aww see your dad is caring about it vs thinking abt your weight. So sweet of him .. Lollll I said that to my brother yesterday ! I'm like.. Well I have a baby in my stomach , what the excuse for your gut! @californiahaley

it hurts at first but the more u do it the less it hurts then ur nips kinda get used to it..it kinda feels like they have teeth..the painful parr to me was latching on... i felt like she was biting down lol but after she latched i was okay. the pain lasted about five seconds. then after a while of doing ir it didnt hurt at all anymore..i lost so much weight like @californiahaley said its usually the beginning that hurts.. make it thru the first few weeks and it wont anymore and it's worth it for baby and you :) i never do it for long though i only breastfed the first few months with both my girls

If anyone comments on your weight just be like "yeah I've got a baby in my belly what's your excuse" that's what I always said.

@mmmirage, exactly no one on the street will be like omg she's still fat I mean it's been 2 weeks already! Lol my dad always made comments while I was pregnant but his were more like I might need a c section because of how big my belly was and all of his kids had to be c sections due to size. My family is still pretty amazed I had my son totally natural.

@californiahaley I wish all mothers thought that way. Annoys me when they start crash diets worried abt how they look. There's other ways. I'll definitely breast feed and stay hydrated! I'll ignore my brothers rude comments about my stomach being big. I have a growing child in me! Ugh some men are ridiculous

@kaylhunt2 oh no! Start drinking lots of water! I have an app where I keep track of how many glasses im drinking. U should download one!

@mmmirage, I would never put my sons food supply in jeopardy just to look better. It's not worth it. No need to diet. You will get it back just takes a little time. Like I said I didn't work out or "eat right" for more then 4 months strictly breast feeding was my weight loss solution and I gained 57 pounds! I've got 10 more to go to pre pregnancy weight but I'm not worried.

@mmmirage yeah a little flabby, but its from the extra skin on my belly. its going away super fast but i dont stay super hydrated, so my skin is having a hard time bouncing back. i had bad pupps, followed by a mystery rash so my skin is trashed.

@kaylhunt2 oh yeh def not stressed. Just want to know how to get back in shape. I have no clue on what to do because pre-pregnancy I would diet and workout but I can't really do all that after the baby. Oh man.. Flabby? Oh dear. Patience will be the key! I'll have to ignore any family or friends rude weight comments! I'm even getting it now and I'm thinking.. Hello! I'm pregnant!

@californiahaley

Yeah I don't know what type of delivery I will have so I don't know how long my body will take to heal plus my sis in law went on a diet and guess what, lost her milk supply!!! The doctor said u need extra calories for breast feeding, it's not a time to diet so I def won't be doing that. I've gained 40 probably so far and I still have 2-3 months to go :(

id say dont stress too much about getting it back right away. ive been losing a fair amount of weight, but im still flabby 4 weeks later. patience is key, as well as working for it. just make sure you heal up first

This was me almost 4 months PP. No working out. No watching what I ate. This is weight loss strictly breastfeeding. I don't have a pregnancy picture on my phone. But I gained 57 pounds ALL in my belly, that's what happens with an over 9lb baby

@californiahaley then I'll be a trooper and suck it up even it's still sore. I'll take some pain vs eating salads all day lollll

@mmmirage, doesn't hurt that bad. And if you make it past 4 weeks doesn't hurt at all

@tattooedwho so many people are saying that and they're all saying it hella hurts! Is it really that bad tho??

breastfeed! weight will fall off
