Body shaming during postpartum
Why people have to comment on other people s physique.
After birth we already feel vulnerable and its hard to accept new body image on its own.
I have gained like 30 kg and alot of strech marks
I know it will be a long journey ahead to get my body back
41 days pp we were invited for lunch by my cousin. I didn’t wanted to go but agreed for same change in scenery.
We went I rang the doorbell her husband opened the door
He said Hi how are you I am said I am good
Next thing comes out of his mind is oo you have gained weight
I said off-course I just delivered a human
We laughed
We went inside sit on soffa my cousin held my hand and she said ooo your arms and hands have gotten quite heavy
My husband got defensive and changed the topic
It made me so mad that it ruined my day
Why people are so stupid
I know i have gained weight you dont have to tell me and its least of my worries right now
