[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I literally look 7-8 months pregnant, with a huge pregnancy belly still. I always had this "light at the end of the tunnel" mentality towards my pregnancy weight gain, like "at least it will be over soon and my body wont have a huge protruding stomach". But it's been several days and my belly is still massive... I am starting to really dread the idea of summer and going out and realizing that this weight gain may very well stick around (I dont want to diet hardcore until I'm done breastfeeding). I would love to hear from others who have been through it. I was always small before pregnancy and this has been very difficult emotionally.[/quote]

Don’t worry — I felt the same a few days out and now I’m 4 weeks pp and now down 25 pounds and feeling much better. Stomach isn’t completely flat like pre pregnancy but I look “normal” now in clothes. Would recommend compression leggings/ underwear/ bike shirts from belly bandit they have really helped with feeling more comfortable with my body when going out (to appointments etc).[/quote]
