Maybe I was just naive
I'm talking about the whole body changes here (down below... Let's not even go there!)
Pre pregnancy, I honestly thought that the extent of my worries would be a saggy belly (fixable with diet and exercise) and possibly saggy boobs (manageable with bra)
I'm lucky that I don't have a saggy belly and no stretch marks. Thank you universe.
But my god, my hips are wider, my ribcage is wider. My boobs currently stick out either side on my sides, if facing mirror.
Basically, I look like a frump
Why did nobody tell me about the general width expansion????!!!
I know this is superficial, but I'm so sad and tired of feeling like a big wide frump. Clothes don't sit on my like they used to (All I see is boob and hip. My grandmother, basically) and I genuinely don't feel as if I recognise my old self anymore
It's a little hard to take with crap post pregnancy hair and massive dark circles.
I'm just a bit sad. Sigh
Moan over. Sorry! I know it's a minor worry in the grand scheme of things
