“One thing that helped me was packing up my pre-pregnancy clothes and putting them away, because I didn't want to be disappointed if something didn’t fit me anymore. Then I bought new clothes, and it made me feel better to have clothes that fit me…I don’t want to have this pressure or expectation that I'm going to be back to my pre-pregnancy size. I don’t expect to and it’s not realistic... I’m a different person now and that’s fine.” - Justine Marjan
