After Walt and Whitney were born I immediately lost almost 30 pounds, and I felt great. Fast forward a month, and now I feel bigger than when I was 9 months pregnant...I know that sounds crazy. I had a huge belly, but my stomach was tight. It feels like someone let all the air out of me, and I'm a droopy balloon. With all that being said, my clothing options are limited. WARNING women who have just had a baby, DO NOT try on your pre-pregnancy jeans! I made that mistake, but have come to terms that it's going to likely take a year to get back to my normal shape. It took my body a year with Turner. However, I have a feeling it's going to be a bit challenging finding the time to take a work out class.

I've been wearing leggings a ton, but it's starting to warm up here in
Texas so on to shorts and dresses. I've also been wearing my maternity
jeans a lot, but decided to bite the bullet and buy a pair of jeans even
though I plan on losing weight. I spotted
THESE American Eagle boyfriend jeans online and fell in love. I immediately went in to the store and
tried on a pair. It was like heaven was shining down on me...they fit
like a glove and made me feel great. They are comfy, stretchy and figure flattering...and only cost me $38! You've got to try on a pair!
I've found that doing my hair and putting on jeans makes me feel a bit
like myself again, even if I'm not 100% comfortable with my body. Mamas, did you experience this after you had kiddos?
