Dressing a postpartum body
Anyone else struggling with their post partum body??? I’m 6 weeks pp and always been plus sized, so this isn’t new as such but my shape is so different that I’m finding it hard to dress myself! I can’t find trousers or jeans that fit around my tummy with the extra weight there and I just want to be able to feel nice in my clothing.

A lot of high waisted leggings and tunic style shirts. Hang in there! It gets better
I’m the exact same plus size almost 6 weeks postpartum, I’ve been wearing a lot of comfy two piece sets, got them off shein! They are stretchy but still flattering, straight leg and shorter top. They are easy to wear plus not much thought had to go into picking clothes to wear as they match so that’s always an option
I’ve found that with both pregnancies I’ve started to find the ‘new me’ at about 3 months ish. Your body changes soo much in the upcoming months. I was wearing a lot of high waisted loose trousers with a tie up waist so they went with my body. Got a lot of them from shein/Vinted as they have lots of different styles and patterns and then just a plain top with an oversized jackets.
Literally everything just hangs differently, even pieces not really affected by my change in size/shape. Like everything just looks weird on me now
