Depressed over new body

I hate my new body, I appreciate it has grown life and brought it into this world but I hate my body. I hate what I see when I look at myself walking past a mirror, or who I look down at my belly that refuses to go down. I’m 9 months PP and I’m hating the way I look and it’s affecting my mental health so much. I can’t even find clothes that suit my body. I’m 4ft11 and 73kg wearing size 14. I HATE that I can’t find a style that suits me anymore or helps slim me down visually someone please help

I feel the exact same and I’m also 9 months pp. don’t worry I think with time, we will get a little bit more time to focus on ourselves again. Ur beautiful and u created a new life. Be easy on yourself and be kind to yourself ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Give yourself and your body some grace. It has gone through 9 months of growing a beautiful lille baby. I personally was struggling with it also so I started using some supplements which have helped amazingly well!

I understand this completely! I gained 75 lbs during pregnancy. Lost 50 lbs fairly quickly still struggling with my new appearance. Everything is so squishy. Still trying to find my style. So I still wear everything oversized & only tend to wear clothes that are comfortable. Sweat suits and Uggs have been my go to this winter

Same. Here for you if u need to talk about a plan

Heyy girl, give yourself time and grace. I felt exactly the same. I’m the same height as you so totally get it, I’m 6 months PP with my 2nd baby and I’ve managed to get myself back down to 51kg (weight I was before pregnancy) by walking a lot! I do 45-60 mins each day and try to eat in a calorie deficit which is hard as I’m a serial snacker 😭but I believe those two things helped me. DM me if you need any support I’m happy to help xx

I feel this 💔

I feel this, it’s so hard adjusting. I still have bad days and my kid is 5. I absolutely hate when people say “love your new body it gave you your son” I love what my body did but hate what pregnancy did to my body. I definitely plan on having a tummy tuck if I can ever afford it one day. For now I have to remember to be kind to myself and do what is in my control like eating better and trying to work out. It’s hard but it will get better but you might still have bad days here and there.
