The Myth of Post-Baby Snapback

There's a myth out of here of the post-baby "snapback." This is the false idea that a mother must immediately shed all of her baby weight after delivery. It's the false idea that a mother should immediately get back to doing everything she did before the baby. The U.S. is the worse perpetuator of this false idea. Everyday women see celebrities seemingly back to their pre-pregnancy weight in a matter of a couple of days or weeks.

This “image” of the “snap back” is a mix of illusion – photoshop, editing, lighting, angles and waist trainers. Many people commented on Beyoncé's first public picture with her twins about how great it is that she is thin again. The Carters are billionaires and only heaven knows what type of access they have to specialists of every kind. This is not the case for the average mother and family.

Furthermore, I don’t think that the goal should be to “snap back.” You can’t “snap” a pregnancy. You carried the baby for 40+ weeks. You’ll more than likely lose the weight over the amount of time that you gained it. Slow and steady wins the race.

Mothers who just delivered have only two responsibilities – recuperate and nurture the baby. That’s it. Here’s a list of things mothers shouldn’t be worried about – entertaining others, doing chores, running errands, losing weight, working out, looking perfect, being perfect, being on the scene, etc.

Postpartum depression is an unknown phenomena in communities where mothers are nurtured, loved, cared for and allowed ample time to settle into being a new mother.

When a child is born, a mother is also born, and she too must learn, adjust and embody her new body. It’s not about getting back to pre-pregnancy. It’s about accepting and loving the new you.

Please, love your body, the stretch marks, extra skin, wider frame. With time, you will transform into a stronger woman. Childbirth is a strengthening Rite of Passage. With love, RootMama.

My wish right now is that God should continue to bless Dr Emu for his good works towards the life of those people who are heart broken. My name is Michael DeBruin and I am from the USA, it's been a while since my lover's attitude changed from being the caring type she has been to me, but later turned out not to be caring at all. But not long, I later discovered that my lover was having an affair with someone else. and also she told me she doesn't need me after all we pass through then a friend told me about a spell caster. that with the spell I will get back my woman, I took his cell number then called him and also what's-app him which he reply to me and I did some sacrifices to the spell man and he bought the items for me which he used for the sacrifices and later called me that before 48 hours my love will come back to me and now we are more in love with each other than ever. you can reach him on WhatsApp +2347012841542 or reach him via mail ; emutemple@gmail.com , my lover returned back and broke up with the other guy she was having a relationship with... Thank you Dr Emu.
