[quote=Anonymous]It’s hard to lose your identity and body as a mom. Give it time. You’re way too early to be expecting your body to snap back, and your identity is going to be and feel different now. Don’t expect to return exactly to exactly who you were before and the body you had before and it will be easier. It’s very disorienting at first, but you’re still so early I honestly think you’re not focusing on the right things. I mean, for starters, if you’re nursing you may not want sex until you wean or your hormones get more in balance, and you may have so much dryness or scar tissue sex may not even feel good. Give it time. Your identity as a sexual being will return and your body will find a new normal, but 6 weeks PP is way too early to expect or think about this. I didn’t feel anywhere close to normal until I weaned both my kids. [/quote]
