Feeling sexy again post-baby?

[DetentionGrrrl]

Have other MNers felt sexy since having their little ones?

DS is 20 weeks now, and i'm still 7lbs over pre-baby weight (and a bit squidgier!) but have started to feel fab in last couple of weeks...like the old me.(For this, read : a bit dirty)

Has anyone any tips to share with others for feeling sexier post-baby?

ooh jarmn started a thread like this - seems a lot of us are feeling teh same i've 2.5 stone to loose post J! think it's helpingme to have an understanding DH to seems to find me sexy regardless even thou I don't find myself sexy iycwim.

My children are 7 & 4.5, so a lot older. It took me quite a long time to feel sexy again. I just didn't have the time or the inclination. However, I definitely feel like "me" again & have done for a few years now. I even did between babies too! It takes a while though. Make a bit of time for yourself, don't worry about the squidge too much. Do your nails, get your hair done, buy some nice undies (or whatever makes you feel good). Appreciate that you DH/DP will be delighted with any sex he gets, so enjoy his pleasure, even if it takes a while for you to get genuinely back into the swing of it.
Hope that helps!

for me it was all about going back to work. I really didn't want to go back but I'm so glad I did (it's just 2 nights so still get to enjoy ds and dd day times) but when I went back and people saw me as a person again, not just someones mum and I started getting hit on by other people at work, I realised that I am desirable and DH has never known me like this, he's a very happy guy! I go to work, get the buzz and go back home to him!

My tip then is to find somewhere where you can be you and have lots of fun, it'll make you feel desirable again and that'll give you your mojo back!!

oh yes, I felt immediately sexy - like I wanted to celebrate by becoming pregnant again!

I couldn't do anything about it for a few wks though, because of the stitches!!!
