Your Mom Body Image


One thing which really changes from having children is – our bodies. Also, your body image changes with having children. We go into motherhood with such positive views and don’t really think about some of the more complex issues which come with motherhood.

Some women will do everything under the sun to gain back their ‘before children body’. Some will go such great lengths to have surgery to just return to the body they once new. Others will choose to accept the changes and let it be. Being a busy mom, you don’t have the time focus on yourself as much. So often what would of bother you in the past doesn’t faze you, as it once might.

Which type of mom are you? Are you going to the gym regularly working on changing you body back, to it’s former self? Or are you just accepting the changes? Or are you a combination of the two? Some of us try for a while to make changes. Once it gets hard fitting into your schedule to get to the gym, some of us stop going. If it’s hard to make the changes happen in the gym, do you give up the fight?

We all go thought the process as mothers, women with several child go through the process several times. It’s all about you. Your own personal thoughts, feelings and opinions and what you choose to do with your life, truly reflect in your body. Nothing is more personal than body image. We either love or hate the state our body is in. We have natural views of our own bodies as women. Then we also have media pressure of the unnatural sort being forced and bombarded upon us. In our society we’re constantly sent image of what’s expected from us as women. So complex an issue no wonder our society is so confused, resulting with some taking drastic measures to change themselves?
