Update: 22, Surviving Newborn Twins and a 2yo (Sierra)

I recently posted on here when i was 2 weeks postpartum with twins. I am now 5 weeks postpartum and wanted to share with everyone the update. My girls are doing fabulous. They are both breast feeding like champs and since birth have each gained 2lbs!! My 2 yr old is doing so great with them, he is a very big help and doesn’t show any jealousy towards his little sisters at all. I couldn’t ask for a better bunch of children, they are my life! Again this website has been very inspiring and i absolutely love it!! I am very self conscious of my body and myself, but then again there are very few women who aren’t, this website has taught me that no matter what i am a mother and i am beautiful and it’s bc of my children that i am who i am. My stretch marks are beginning to fade ( i didn’t get very many, which i was completely surprised about carrying twins and being so small) and my stomach has gone down drastically since my 2 week postpartum picture, i was very concerned and worried about muscle separation in my stomach and have since learned that there wasn’t any and i’m very thankful and blessed…just wanted to share my update i will continue to update as time goes by and my twins continue to grow.

    You look amazing! I had twins five years ago but I was never a small girl. I also didn’t get many stretch marks and those I did get, quickly faded. Congrats on three beautiful children!

    chj i did wrap my belly probably for the first month after the twins were born i really do think that that helped a lot to help my stomach go down…
