I HATE men today

That would require them to have a brain and they all seem to lack on that 🤣

Uff yes, I wouldn’t wonder when your husband would ask you why you‘re tired and you‘re JUST with the baby. 🫰🏼🤧

I‘m sure you look great! And it’s anyway more important how you feel within. Would be a better feeling with people who motivate you and see the power and the superhero stuff that you did! Having a baby and being mostly alone is not for the weak and we all need some time for us - and not extra comments. Love to you!

Sounds like you need to talk to your husband and work on a compromise to get some time to yourself to hit the gym etc if your weight is bothering you

12 is even not a big size wtf 😱what’s wrong with people

I remember my dad telling me that the reason I didn't get a job was probably coz I was over weight...what a delight lol!! And my Nan saying 'hasn't she put on weight' whilst standing next to me 🤣 some people haven't got a clue x

I'm super petty and make comments back lol My husband has been awesome and super support of me... but other men, less so. So when they comment on my body, I comment on theirs! (Receding hairline, tummy, hygiene, muscle tone or lack thereof, etc) lol then tell them it doesn't feel so good, does it?

Posts like this are why I’m never having another kid. There are very few men (if any) who are empathic to the toll pregnancy/childbirth takes on a woman. So sorry you experienced this. Sending virtual hugs 💕

Men are so insensitive at times, woman can feel so insecure after baby’s regardless of weight gain etc, I used to be a size 8 and since hitting 30 and having 2 more children in my 30’s I am now a size 16 I hate it, thankfully my partner is very supportive he knows I want to loose weight and I have recently joined SlimmingWorld, be strong, remind your partner what you gave been through and tell him how much it affects you when he puts you down about your weight x

Girl my mom said something similar to me after having my first and was telling me how to “keep a man interested” by doing makeup everyday, cooking, cleaning, doing my hair, working out WHILE working 12-14hr shifts 4 days a week and my dad was sitting there agreeing with her about it all.

I understand you're sensitive about your weight but your father was trying to help I think. He's right about that and I know because of my own experience, I lost 15kg since giving birth and my back doesn't hurt as much anymore. I think you need to talk to your husband to compromise on some time for yourself so you can also work on your fitness

@Merion 12 was big for me. Everyone has different build. Though yes, 12 is considered average in America . Or low end of average

Comments like these make me glad that my husband, has said to me at 15 months postpartum " it's great that you've lost the weight , but you can't seem to lift as much , I think you've lost muscle mass" Actually being concerned about me, his long term partner for 12 years, wife for almost 5 years.... Mother to our child.... Yeah

( little buddy will be 16 months next week )

Just comment back and say hes got no calfs or biceps especially when a man is a gym head honestly these comments hurt them hard haha but im petty and im also with a gym head so i know how you feel hun lol xxx

Your husband sounds a bit selfish and a bit of a dick tbh. Argument or not you have just had a child and if he looked after the baby a few times a week instead of having him time then maybe you would be able to drop the weight x

My dad likes to tell me to lose weight 🙄. He doesn't do it in a condescending way and I know he just cares about my health but still, just leave me alone lol. Also, this is coming from a man who refuses to get a cpap machine until he's on Medicare and it will be covered haha. And when I said yeah unless you die in your sleep before then he was like oh well 🤣.

I would love to be a size 12 😍 if your happy with your weight then it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks and with only being 6 months your still recovering and looking after a baby ❤️

What in the world do these men expect you to do? Pregnancy changes you! Being stuck at home with a baby and most likely sleep deprived changes you! You need help. I wouldn’t worry so much about your weight but your mental health. Postpartum depression is very serious and something to watch out for.

Also.... The weight doesn't just fall off. And if you want to change your body.... The goal should be better endurance and stability and gaining strength overall.... Endurance to be able to chase after and keep up with kids

( well, for most people it doesn't, but every body is different and that's okay

I would fall into a deep hole if someone said that to me. I’m 13 months pp and I haven’t lost any weight from the day my daughter was born. It has been hard being 40lbs heavier than I was when I got pregnant. I have struggled having the energy to start workouts. It takes time and some people don’t lose it so easily. Some guys are just crap when it comes to women’s weight.
