..to have complained to GMTV about Loraine Kelly's feature about women snapping back into shape after birth ?

Did anyone see this ?

Loraine interviewed 'z' list celebrity Lisa Scott Lee who modelled in a bikini 6 weeks after birth.

The feature had been trailed earlier on GMTV as being about the pressure some women feel under to snap back into shape 6 weeks after birth. Interesting I thought, having given birth 4 weeks ago (2nd child, so under no illusion about my body's recovery !)

The feature simply perpetuated the pressure to which it was referring and was void of any facts about real women and the length of time it takes for the body to recover.

They did mention that 'Dr Hilary' would be on tomorrow to dicuss this further, but even so - pretty iresponsible I thought.

I've probably wasted my time complaining but there you go ! (And before anyone points it out to me, I don't expect serious features on LK Today, but I don't expect such irresponsible boadcasting).

It took me a year to lose the bulk of my baby weight (I never lost all of it, actually!). I put on 4 stone, had a 10 lb baby delivered by c-section and a bad back for ages afterwards. I can't believe people seriously think women should be prioritising weight loss after the birth fo a child. It says such sad things about our culture.
