Tonight as my 7 year old niece and I were snuggled up watching tv, she reached across, patted my tummy, and said "you still have the belly then"..... !!!!
Funny as, out of the mouths of babes huh.
But  cos it's true

I look pregnant too - way worse this time around too. Haven't really had the time to deal with it though - maybe once Emma sleeps thru the night things will ease off and I'll get a life again

I find mine doesn't get much better till I stop BF (this contradicts the loose weight whilst BF theory). If I try to watch what I eat i.e low fat stuff, my milk supply drops noticably, probably doesn't help that all my babies have this rather large need for chocolate milk,

I got told by DPs daughter the other day that I couldn't go on the plane with them back to Wellington because my tummy was too fat for the seatbelt to go round me. And my tum isn't even that big anymore - it's my hips and thighs that are the problem!!! Talk about depressing.

I used to have a saggy belly before getting preggers but now it's filled out in a nice round little bump. I now look more pregnant than I did while I was pregnant  I'm blaming the c-sect ... I'm sure they left a whole lot of stuff in there!

I still have a lower belly, the top of my belly is gone but I've got the buldge thing happening even though I'm basically at my pre preggers weight. I have no time to do anything about it though.

I go to the gym 3-4 times a week and try to eat well (apart from eating way too much chocolate, but I can't be perfect) and I still have my baby-jelly-belly that hangs over the top of my pants  TBH I have no idea how I will ever get rid of it!! My legs got skinnier at the gym but that's about it  oh and my boobs got much saggier. So now I feel like a bulgy saggy old woman covered in stretch marks (my skin feels so gross) and I'm only 24 years old. Makes me feel kinda
At least Chloe was worth it, otherwise I would be really REALLY mad.
