Sharing real life motherhood moments, life-saving products, and tips/tricks from one mom to another.

Dear Reader,

As a new mom, you may be facing a lot of changes in your life, including changes in your body. It's natural to feel self-conscious about your postpartum body, I know I did, but it's important to remember that every body is different and there is no "right" way for your body to look after giving birth.

And keep in mind...this journey won't be linear.

You will ebb and flow throughout acceptance and disapproval over, and over, and over, and over again.

It's also important to remember that the media often presents unrealistic standards of postpartum bodies, which can contribute to feelings of inadequacy and shame.

However, it's important to focus on your own journey and celebrate the amazing things your body has accomplished in bringing new life into the world.

Here are a few tips to help you embrace your postpartum body:

1. Practice self-care: Take time for yourself to relax and practice self-care, whether that's taking a bath, going for a walk, or reading a book. This can help you feel more connected to your body and boost your confidence.
   ​
2. Surround yourself with positivity: Surround yourself with people who uplift and support you, and avoid those who make negative comments about your body or appearance. Seek out online communities of other postpartum moms who can offer support and encouragement.
   ​
3. Dress for your body: Invest in clothes that make you feel comfortable and confident. You don't need to conform to any particular style or trend - focus on what makes you feel good. With summer coming up, I know it can be a rough season to get through when you're struggling with your body image. That's why I LOVE these curve-friendly swimsuits. Not only do they fit comfortably, but they will flatter the hell out of your figure! You'll be wishing you lived in a swimsuit this summer.

And if we're being honest, I want you to know, I struggle with this too. Even 3 years after giving birth...

It is an ongoing journey.

Some days I feel like I still got it.

Some days I feel like my body is broken.

But every, single, day...I choose to keep showing up. Because I am worth it. And so are you, loves.

Remember, your postpartum body is a testament to your strength and resilience. Embrace and celebrate it for all that it is.
