    Jessica, I agree it is hard to get back to liking anything about your body after childbirth. It took me 4 years to recover from my second (and last) child. I found it helped to just have an exercise program (even just a few minutes a day). The results were not immediate, but I FELT like my body was getting better. A few weeks of pilates helped immensely with my stomach flab. As for the stretch marks…well, they’re yours to keep, unfortunately. But, they may fade and some lotions can help a little. It may take a while, but just doing something about it will help. (Even walks to the park or playing tag with the little guy when he’s ready will help.
