[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP you don’t have to lose your body.  It might change some but you can still look just as good as before minus the effects of aging.  I still wear fashionable clothing, weigh the same I did in HS and style my hair.  It’s not any harder than it was pre-kids.  In fact it’s easier since I’m no longer working 14 hour days at work.  Kids sleep a lot.  Simply sleep train and prioritize yourself.  Don’t be one of those moms who doesn’t sleep train and is always exhausted with a cranky kid.  Don’t give up your career so you can’t afford to spend money on yourself.  Force yourself to exercise.  For real having one kid isn’t that hard.  Babies can’t even walk.  All they do is cry and poop.

It’s easier than pre kids? How is that? Before kids I could spend 20-30 minutes in the AM on makeup and hair. The only person I had to get ready was myself. Add in getting one toddler to daycare and one kid to elementary school and I barely have 3 minutes to slap some lipstick on because I’m trying to get myself ready, my kids ready, and everyone out the door and on time. You guys aren’t being honest if you think it’s easier to get ready and primp with two kids. Don’t lie to prove you’re a mom who takes care of herself. Also, it’s totally ok to be a mom who prioritizes getting her kids ready and puts herself second. Kids aren’t little and won’t always be high need forever and sometimes as a parent your needs do, in fact, come last. [/quote]
