On Loving And Embracing Your Body After Childbirth, Obis Ora Has This To Say

         


“I fell in love with myself the day I accepted my body. I have two kids. Deflated boobs, mummy pouch, stretch marks. Signs of miracle. I won’t trade them for the world” a mother commented on a post, while talking about the pressure to snap back after childbirth

Many mothers are hurting from body insecurities after childbirth and this feeling can be so frustrating. No woman fancies the many changes the body go through during and after pregnancy but they carry on with it, knowing that their babies are worth it.

However, a brand and fashion influencer, who is also a mother, Obis Ora is encouraging mums to love and embrace their bodies.

She wrote,

  • This motherhood, when they say “joys of motherhood”….this my caption above is one of them. I clearly remember how my body was before babies came along. Chaiiiii. Hot fresh babe. Bikini things o.
  • .
  • Once I birth my 1st baby, when I looked at the mirror, I couldn’t recognize what I was seeing. Is it the mummy pouch? or the stretch marks on my belly. It used to pain me before. Or is it my feet that went from size 41.5 to 43/44 now. See eh, it’s not easy. Talk more of social media making us feel like we need to snap back immediately.

However, I want to encourage someone. Are you feeling bad about your new body? Rather than loose your confidence or self esteem over it, begin to embrace your body and love it. We all have body insecurities. Trust me. No matter the money in the account, we all do. It could be your toes, new mummy body, back fat rolls, skin breakout, k-legs, flat boobs, hair loss, bad eye sight or flabby tummy. If it’s weight gain you can sign up for @Askdamzwebinar “Banish cravings and get snatched”.
.
Whatever it is, your body is yours for a lifetime. Love it, nourish it, be proud of it and flaunt it! Now, I don’t feel bad about my body changes. I brought life to this earth with it, and it wasn’t an easy journey. You can tell I have fully embraced mine and I’m packaging it well. Now it’s time to do same to yours. Would you?. Yes or No?

Caroline has lost jobs. She has lost friendships. She has lost good relationships. But her greatest regret is that she lost two babies to taking alcohol.

For 18 years, Caroline struggled with alcohol addiction and she lost two babies through miscarriages caused by alcohol. Many years later, she still carries the guilt around.

A toxic relationship triggered Caroline’s drinking to stupor. Alcohol was something she took once in a while but being in that relationship soon made it a regular thing. It became so bad that she was involved in near-death situations, near-rape situations but always escapes them.

Two months into her first pregnancy for her abusive boyfriend, Caroline started bleeding. She almost lost her life during that time because the foetus wasn’t evacuated until one month later, when she had money to go to the hospital.

She got pregnant again for the same man and this time, the pregnancy didn’t even last as she miscarried it almost immediately. That was when Caroline knew she needed to change, so, she decided to go into rehab and she returned a better person.

To free herself from the guilt she carries around, Caroline decided to share her secret with a childhood friend.
