After a difficult pregnancy, I had a fantastic birth (painful, but short) and now have a wonderful little boy sleeping next to me. Beyond delighted, so please don't flame me for asking a "vain" question. I used to be a professional athlete (once upon a time about ten years ago) and still take care of my body and exercise. The pregnancy, which was tough, after 4 mcs, took its toll on my body and I am so happy to not be pregnant anymore.
However... when will I stop looking pregnant? I gave birth (vb) a week ago and I still look about 4-5 months pregnant. How long did it take you to lose the belly? I dont mean get back to pre-pg weight, I fully expect that to take a while, but how long before people stopped asking when babys due (iykwim)?
