\/\u003E\u0026nbsp;I always thought that once I would get pregnant I would become obsessed with the weight that I'd put on during pregnancy. In the beginning, I was a little fixated on it especially since the pandemic hit right at the beginning of my first trimester and the level of fatigue I was experiencing was like nothing I've ever experienced before. That meant I was in bed sleeping 99% of the time and like many, I did put on a couple of extra lbs. During my pregnancy I actually ended up losing weight because of the diet I was on due to gestational diabetes which was a blessing in disguise. I was really lucky that within 1-2 weeks postpartum I lost all the pregnancy weight, and I'm not saying any of this to make any mama feel down on themselves. What I am trying to say is even though I lost all of that weight my body was different than before I was pregnant.\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBefore continuing this post I wanted to remind you guys if you haven't been following my \u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/www.ohhjuliana.com\/search\/label\/Fertility?max-results=12\" target=\"_blank\"\u003Ejourney to motherhood\u003C\/a\u003E then you didn't know that prior to conceiving I had gone through fertility treatments. Two rounds of IUI, one full round of IVF that included stimming the ovaries, egg retrieval, and a fresh embryo transfer. A second-round IVF in which we did a frozen embryo transfer. All of these treatments included tons of hormone medications that I had to constantly put into my body. From all of this, my body changed. So, not only did my body change from pills and countless injections it also changed in pregnancy.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBeing nearly 10 months postpartum my body doesn't look how it once did and I'm ok with that. My body did magic. My body grew, carried, nourished, and delivered a human being! It did something I thought it was never capable of doing. I want to show Lucy that I am proud of my body and my skin no matter how it looks like. I am the number one woman she has and will look up to, I am her role model. I want her to feel confident and love herself for who she is because I can't even find the words to describe how much I love her. She is and will forever be perfect in my eyes I want her to see that and also believe it.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EI ordered a few undergarments from the company ARQ and I love what they stand for and how they advertise their pieces with women that range from all shapes and sizes. I went ahead and splurged on myself and I had to pick up a matching set for Lucy. Lucy and I did a small photoshoot in our pieces and I will cherish these sweet photos for a lifetime.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-4fKvDz8BKhs\/YQNara2jezI\/AAAAAAAAKys\/-be_Wfq3QpIdV3eBb6Qaoq2OnRAinslcgCNcBGAsYHQ\/s2048\/ACS_0409.JPG\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em;
