[quote=Anonymous]I'm a few years away from being 40 but I just had a baby earlier this year.  My older kids are 15 & 17.  I was out (still am) of shape, weighed a lot more than I did when I had my first.  My body ached so much, especially in the pelvic area and back during this last pregnancy.  It was really difficult to walk.  I just really felt my age and weight. I was very nervous about how it was going to be with a newborn.  This baby was very colicky for the first 6 weeks which I didn't experience before.  This was very overwhelming for me.  My recovery has taken longer.  I have incontinence and am doing pelvic floor physical therapy.  Weight is coming off VERY SLOW.  I thought I wouldn't have the energy for my baby but I actually do and that surprised me.  I feel like I have the same energy that I did when I was younger.  I'm up and about more than I was before this year.  I didn't know many women that had kids as young as I did but I know a lot of women now having their first kid in their mid to late 30s.[/quote]
