Some women always have the bit of skin hanging around for a while. www.theshapeofamother.com Post-partum pregnancy gallery
There are some full nudity here... lots of women are NOT ashamed to show every and all the effects of pregnancy on their bodies. You are forewarned  |
This website just made me really really depressed...
Steph Tasha and Rachie, you look amazing! I hope I go back to looking like I did before. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | It'll happen, Claire - Just may take some time  Remember, though, like has been said earlier in this thread, it takes 9 months to get to the size you are at the end of pregnancy - It's unrealistic to expect things to go back overnight, but be patient and in time things will go back into place. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | OK, so here is my belly 2 weeks postpartum.
It's still very jelly-like but it is shrinking day by day.  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | thanks girls.
I have ups and downs with the way I see myself and my new body image, but since it has only been 2 weeks I can't really expect any magic.
I guess by posting the picture on a public forum I am just trying to be more comfortable with the way I look. |
