Mirror, Mirror.

I look at myself in the mirror and a cliche comes to mind: Motherhood Changes Everything. Physically - it's just obvious. I wonder if i would ever fit in my size 2 clothes ever again. I pray to God my breasts shrink back to normalcy after breastfeeding...I could hardly recognize the person staring back at me - she wasn't made up at all, her clothes were loose and no high heeled pumps have graced her feet the last 6 months. That's so not me. The Nina everyone knew felt bare leaving the house without a smudge of gloss or powder, wore tight-fitting outfits and 2-3 inch stilettos. I wonder if my husband notices these things and if this is the part that men usually go out looking for playmates on the side. I shouldn't feel insecure - pregnancy is wonderful! well, it is but the changes seem to be so drastic. for one, i've never gained as much weight as i did now. 20 pounds is just astounding.
