Everyone warns you about the baby weight when you're pregnant. "Don't worry it just takes time." "Don't be hard on yourself, you just had a baby, you look great!" And you go into it thinking you won't be hard on yourself, you'll give yourself grace, you'll give yourself time to breathe and enjoy your baby.

So after having a baby and carrying that extra weight for almost a year, my body and I have some growing to do together and figure out our new normal. Before Jamaica, I did what I could with the time that I had. So did I get back in pre-baby shape before my trip? Hahahahaha hell no.

I was SO happy to find @aerie swim during this journey. When you pair just having a baby with not being comfortable in your skin, it is a HUGE struggle to not only shop, but shop for swimwear of all things. They have swimsuits for all body types and they show REAL bodies!

Am I where I want to be with my body yet? Nope, but I'm giving myself grace to know I'll get there eventually and I'm going to embrace this beautiful body that did a beautiful thing. ❤️ #postbabybody #aeriereal #giveyourselfgrace
