My postpartum recovery definitely took a toll on my body. I still don’t feel my 100% because one, my wound still hasn’t healed, and two, my baby weight is still on me. I know a lot of moms say to give the body time to heal, adjust, and be what it’s supposed to be for the baby, I can’t help but feel awful whenever I feel the pangs of pain down there and when I see myself in the mirror and in pictures. Like, girl, you really that big?! But I know all of this is temporary… that I will heal eventually, and that my body will shed its extra love handles.

Today, I will be sharing with you the things that I do to cope while I’m still on this road to complete recovery.
