Natasha wrote: “Postpartum body mail. This is the first picture I took of my body after having my baby. I didn’t take it to compare to my old body, but because I’m so proud of what my body has achieved over the years.
“I just had my fifth baby at the age of 41. I’ve been in touch with my body a lot over the years and I haven’t always been that proud of it.” When I was younger I felt there was a lot of pressure to “get back on my feet” after babies . Have a specific clothing size.
“I’ve had a scale in my bathroom for years and weighed myself first thing in the morning to make sure the numbers were going down.”
“I’ve tried a lot of diets, I’ve tried to avoid ‘fads’ and focus on exercise and a clean lifestyle, which have always been the ‘diets’ that have worked best.”
“It’s common sense, but to feel good, starving yourself won’t work!” It’s a slow but concerted effort that yields the best results over time.
“So this time there are no scales! No diets as I am breastfeeding. There is no pressure. My approach is love and gratitude for my body housing my baby and protecting him for almost nine months.
“I still haven’t figured out where to start on my fitness journey this time?” Maybe Pilates? peloton? (Once the stitches and everything has healed) Definitely baby yoga (yoga with the baby in the sling, looks great).
“But whatever I do, I’m going to enjoy the process and enjoy the new stretch marks, mummy bag and thread veins on my legs.” This is my new me and I love her more than I ever thought I could .”
