I propose we introduce a new term into our lexicon: “Never Had a Baby Body.” This single word encapsulates a noun, pronoun, and adjective all rolled into one, and demands to be pronounced as one cohesive term. Picture it in your mind—bodies that bear more resemblance to a teenager than a mother. Sound familiar?
I first coined this term when a colleague of my husband, Sarah, arrived at our home, primed for a day trip with him. She stepped in looking pristine, donned in a chic outfit that flaunted her Never Had a Baby Body, ready for a four-hour drive. Meanwhile, I was at home with my youngest, just a few months old, still nursing, wearing a maternity top because it was the only clean thing I could find. You can guess the contrast, right? My husband headed out with Sarah, and I figured it was high time I washed my hair before his return that evening.
Fast forward a few weeks, and I stumbled upon a photo from my honeymoon. I couldn’t help but ask, “Who’s that stunning woman in the bikini with my husband?” It was just my Never Had a Baby Body from back then. While I looked fabulous, I realized it took no effort to attain that look, thereby diminishing my respect for that version of myself.
Now, when I see mothers who’ve sculpted their physiques back to their pre-baby shape, I hold a deep admiration for their diligence. Without an in-home chef or a relentless personal trainer, not to mention considerable willpower, I’ll likely never match my Never Had a Baby Body. And you know what? I’m perfectly fine with that. I have four incredible children and a wonderful husband who loves me just the way I am.
I’ll gladly take that over a Never Had a Baby Body any day.
