Missing my old life

Anyone else grieving their old body/life. Don’t get me wrong I’m so ready to meet my baby girl and beyond great full for her. But me and my husband are so young and I miss our fun days, I don’t miss the drinking or the smoking I just miss being able to do things with him and not feel sick or be in pain. We’re currently at the lake with all our friends and I’m just sitting in the truck because my nipples are killing me😂

Yeah, you’re not alone! I grieve my old body all the time. And, I miss being able to up and go whenever I want..now it’s such a process trying to get out of the house, I sometimes just stay inside lol. I have a 8 month old, he’s my world, but I do grieve what I was

@Elena i try to explain to my husband what I’m feeling but he’s a guy and just doesn’t get it😂 he just thinks that everything will go back to normal after she’s here but I know that’s not the case. But still super excited

lol honestly, it’ll be worse before it gets better..but it goes start getting better! I’m starting to feel like myself again..SLOWLY but I’m starting to be able to work out and not be super tired all the time. I’m hoping I’ll start to love my PP body sooner than later. Guys don’t get it lol, mine just makes me feel loved, but he knows he couldn’t begin to even try to know how I feel.

Yesss girl I’m five kids in already! We brought the kids to the water park and I’m tired as hell

Yea I miss my old body and my boobs before pregnancy 😭. My coochie looks weird now too I hope it goes back to normal soon.

@Rachel Kim I’ve gained around the same amount and I hate it🥲

I definitely miss my old body. I've gained like 50lbs with a month to go, I miss my smaller boobs which are now just bigger then I would like, I feel swollen all the time and can't even wear my wedding ring... I feel like a mess. Lmao!! I just keep telling myself that this shall pass and it'll all be worth it when i'm holding my little man. 😂

I definitely have these moments too and it’s so normal!! A lot changes when you have a baby I totally miss my pre baby body allll the time too😭

I feel this way too! I had just turned 30 2months before I got pregnant & had lost a bunch of weight and was feeling so great. I’m 7months pp currently & still haven’t lost any of the baby weight😩 I’m also missing my job that I ended up leaving to stay home with my son. I feel very fortunate to be able to be with him every day but I do miss that part of my identity and even some of the coworkers that I got along with. I’m 900 miles away from family so motherhood has been pretty lonely and I’m not the most social person so it’s hard for me to put myself out there to create new connections.
