Six Weeks Post Partum Comparison

Posted by: typealice In: Baby| Daily| Gillian


I was asked recently what my belly looks like now, seven weeks after giving birth. It’s mushier than it was before I got pregnant, of course, and is a bit more muffin-toppy than it has ever been in my life, but it’s okay, under the circumstances. I’m two pounds over my pre-pregnancy weight, but I’d like to lose an additional 10-15lbs to get back to where I was when Clive and I first met and we lived in Mexico nearly three years ago.

Anyway, here’s a comparison sequence from the past 45 days.

About

I'm Gillian, a Nova Scotian woman with a son named Ash (born 09/07) and a wife to Clive. I am what they call an Attachment Parent; I breastfeed, wear my baby as much as possible, cosleep, cloth diaper and practice elimination communication. I have very strong parenting views. We are raising Ash as an organic vegetarian. I care about the environment and do what I can to reduce my carbon footprint and set a good example for others, especially my child.

I'm proudly drug free, but can't say that I have always been. My early 20s were comprised mostly of travelling- I've lived and worked everywhere from West Africa to the Caribbean. I currently run AP Mamas, a site dedicated to attachment parenting and G Slings, my sustainable sling company.
