[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lady, I promise once the baby is out, you will be too tired to care.  I find that the losing your body is not so much the problem... it's the losing 30-minutes a day to spend on basic hygiene, hair, makeup, putting thought into getting dressed --- that's the real reason why a lot of moms look bad.  We literally DON'T HAVE TIME  to put ourselves together, especially in those hyper-needy early years.[/quote]

Nope. Maybe in the first 2 months when you're up all night, but nope. Don't scare expectant moms with this drama. I have always had time to bathe myself and look decent.[/quote]

Really? You most either have a lot of help, one kid who is an easy baby, a hands on partner who lets you primp, or just ignore your kid. [/quote]

I have one kid who was an easy baby. Some help, but not an army of nannies (or even one nanny). But a lot of "easy baby" is nurture, not nature. Some is nature -- but I had an easy temperament and a fussy, anxious mother. I probably would have been easy if she hadn't been the way she is.

I don't primp, but I'm also not a martyr who skips basic human hygiene because a baby is crying briefly.[/quote]
