Yeah Yeah Yeah ...they've reconciled..sorta

So here I am 9 weeks post partum and really sick of elastic waist pants and overalls. I pulled my “fat” pants out of the closet. Fat pants that I would wear a couple weeks into pregnancy to avoid maternity pants. They are size 12’s.
Real size 12’s. I have shrunk size 12’s that are like a 10.5 ( that I’ve bought for a few bucks at resale shops and fit woooonderfully.) and then the fat pants of size 12s.

With the real size twelves I can actually BUTTON my pants. My button hole and button have reconciled. I just can’t sit down.

You have no idea how this boosts my spirits.
Whooooo hooooo. It encourages me to breastfeed for a couple weeks longer.

Just thought I’d share.

In the spirit of all the movie threads:

“Miss Scarlett, you done gone had a baby. There ain’t no way you’s gonna get down to 20 inches now.”

Shirley, I know where you’re coming from. I am six weeks postpartum and last week I went out and bought a pair of size 14’s just so I could stop wearing the damn maternity pants every day!!! I feel human again. I have like 20 pounds left to lose, though. Breastfeeding helps…now I gotta try to find time to exercise…
