Coping with Body Changes

Hi! STM here, after my first kiddo my body pretty much went back to normal (even the weird larger darker nips and skin discoloration I experienced!) and that was with me not really exercising. This time around im a couple years older (28) and chasing after a toddler so my focus is really just body neutrality. I try to look at my body like I would any other, and since I don’t judge other bodies it’s been kinda nice to afford that outlook to myself! My body does not define me. my son, husband, and cat love me regardless and my true goal is to stay as healthy as possible (haha which is not the easiest when all I crave are carbs!) but I’ve taken up swimming again during pregnancy and it’s helped my mood and hopefully health a lot.:)
