I need to cut myself some slack. If I just had clothes that fit, I think I'd be more ok with it. peaches: I know! When I was pg, even though I was exercising all the time, I couldn't WAIT to get back to REAL workouts. Hot Yoga, running, Zumba, etc. That has yet to happen, though. *sigh* shelikes: You are SO RIGHT. I feel crappy for even bringing it up, but it's on my mind, so on the blog it goes. Gori: HI! Your blog is so interesting! Thanks for the commiseration. What the hell, right? Jenny: Yes. Walking. God knows, poor Freya could use it. The weather and Clark's hatred of all things carrier related has hindered this, but I think soon we will get out there. Kelly T: Totally. I love her so much. If only we could still dress that way!

It's only been three months, you still have lots of slack time allowed. The weather has been tough, hard to get outside, and going to the gym is a pain in the ass. My secret was walking the dogs. 30-60 minutes at a time, once or twice a day (much easier when you give birth in June). Take SB and Clark in the stroller, or use a sling for the boy. While it doesn't feel as dramatic in the moment....those steps really add up. We all have those post baby moments. Even after the weight drops, it's been redistributed :) I wouldn't mind those boobs back. I loved those! It does get better. It’s only been three months, you still have lots of slack time allowed.

I left the hospital wearing my pre-pregnancy jeans and back at my pre-pregnancy weight (in part due to the horrible hospital food.) And then? I was stuck in the house with a baby and pint after pint of Haagen Daas and gained 25 pounds in the first 5 months (In part due to the fact that I didn't leave the house alone with the baby until he was 3 months old!) So I feel ya. I gained 24 pounds during pregnancy, (in part due to a very restricted gestational diabetic diet.)

You are amazing. Look at what your body did! It created a BABY! It hasn't been that long. Keep working on your body when you can. Be kind to it. It's worked hard. Keep going and it will be back.

One mom I know doesn't lose any of her pregnancy weight until she is ALL DONE breastfeeding, where as some of us have it drop off along the way. I have a feeling that I'm going to have a much harder time with the weight coming off/my body getting back to the fit state I like it in after this second pregnancy because I didn't start out in optimum shape like I did with Audrey. I might get Tracy Anderson's post-pregnancy DVD--she's the one who got Gwyneth back in shape and is Madonna's personal trainer. Also, the longer I live with it, the more I'm kinda in to my new (softer) mom bod. Or maybe it's because trying to keep up with a two-year-old I don't have time to give to much of a f***! :^) But I am really really looking forward to being able to get back to an active lifestyle after this pregnancy is over.

I hear you loud and clear. Oh how I understand!! Generally, what I have experienced and what I have seen with my pals is that it takes about the same time as being pregnant to recover from being pregnant. Also once Clark is up and mobile you will be amazed at how quickly your body gets back to a state of hotness. ((although I have seen pictures of you since you had the baby and you look hot to me!!!))) Oh Jenny!! I hear you loud and clear. Oh how I understand!!
