Three Months Postpartum

Mamahood is splendid! Our baby Mira is growing and changing so much, I constantly wish that I could hit the pause button. Lots of cooing, chatting, and smiling at me makes the difficult moments completely disappear. While she's constantly changing, I feel like I've hit a plateau. My body has not budged; same weight and the oh-so-darling muffin top! Now that the weather is more manageable, I have been walking several times a week, but only sporadically I have gone to yoga class or gotten on the cardio machine ... and counting calories, forget it! Perhaps a slower start than I had originally planned, it's most important that I have time and energy for my daughter and helping her get to her milestones. It took nine months to gain it, so be it if it takes that long to loose it. I am suspicious though that my body has changed forever, and I may not be able to get into my skinny jeans that I wore years ago. Oh well, I will love my new mama curves!
