Date night and a post partum update
Hubby and I went on a date night, woop woop. Three kids and we still manage to hang out, nah don't be fooled, my mom and hubby's parents are staying with us so we have plenty of hands to help out. Getting a clean bill of health after my 6-week post partum appointment coupled with hubby finishing his class motivated us to go out without the kids for a few hours because we could. I couldn't be happier, it's nice to take a little break from the kids from time to time (though I couldn't wait to come home to my Bean, he needs me too much right now).

Anyway, back to my 6-week post partum update. I still have hair on my head, YAY. I got my hair done in anticipation of the post partum hair loss
craziness that always rocks my world after pregnancy around 10ish weeks. Right now my hair is doing amazing but obviously it's too early to tell, I am only 6 weeks post partum.

I am enjoying my hair right now and so not looking forward to the hair loss but myy Bean is so worth any potential hair loss
As far as the body goes, I got a clean bill of health after my appointment. Also, my belly is down to a reasonable size, my normal clothes fit (though I am still wearing maternity pants, I hate the muffin top) and overall I feel pretty good with what I see, how I feel, and where I am right now
I am also loving the number on the scale. It's not my ideal weight and things are still jiggly everywhere but for being 6 weeks post partum with my 3rd baby, it's an amazing number. Ideally, I want my weight to be somewhere around 135lbs, we are almost there YAY.
This pregnancy was my easiest one yet both emotionally and physically. This has also been my easiest recovery. I guess they are right when they say it gets easier after each pregnancy :). If we are lucky enough to have another baby, I hope that pregnancy and recovery is just as good to me. YAY for an awesome post partum recovery.

Hurray for dating. my in-laws are coming and I hope to take the opportunity go. My body is not where is supposed to be but I hope to get there so. I have to eat well and cleaner.
ReplyDeleteYou look great! So glad you and hubby got some alone time. You need it and if you can you definitely should!! Maybe the hairs won't fall out after all? Who knows you could get lucky but since it's a pattern at least you are prepared to deal with it since it's happened before.
ReplyDeleteWoohoo on going on date night. That's awesome! It is always fun to do that. It really helps to get away for a bit.
