Hey mommies, I just need to vent a little. Today we were about to go out to dinner and I put a dress on and looked in the mirror, thinking I looked a little big and as if I were still pregnant but then I brushed it off and said I'm just being too hard on myself and it's normal at 5 weeks post partum. I went into the living room and hubby jokingly said "oh hey you're expecting again". I knew he didn't mean it and didn't really think before saying it, but he could tell it hurt me and immediately felt terrible and apologized. I told him my self esteem is something I've really been struggling with and that it hurt me because that's exactly what I said about myself when I looked in the mirror. I've never seen him regret his words so much. I love him and of course I forgive him, I know he would never try to hurt me and he is probably beating himself up over this. But I just can't stop thinking about it. I keep hearing it again in my head and my heart is sinking. How do I get over this and just forget it all happened? Having a tough time with this due to PPD :/

Yasss ladies!!! I'm 28 & was bigger than ever starting this second pregnancy. I was tiny my (compared to now lol) last pregnancy. You just work on what you want to work on with your body but also learn to love it. You carried a life inside of you! That's a beautiful miracle! Be proud of all the ways pregnancy shaped you. You're a mommy and that's amazing. Another thing that may help with confidence if you're feeling low could be to buy a shaper from Walmart or something. I used to wear them all the time after my pregnancy. It just holds in the belly a bit and feels like a hug. :-)
