[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a few weeks postpartum and I get so sad when I catch a glimpse of my tummy in the mirror before I get in the shower. [b]Also didn’t realize my butt would turn flat and squishy too.[/b] My husband is so sweet and tries to make me feel better but I agree, I just feel gross! [/quote] Chances are good that your movement patterns in late pregnancy did not work your posterior chain much. Also, if you're breastfeeding, the baby is literally consuming the fat out of your butt (it is where the body tends to store extra fat in pregnancy that is mobilized for this purpose). Stretched skin may or may not come back, but the rest of this will change with time. [/quote]
