hi, I had a c-section 5weeks ago and find myself discouraged because I haven't been able to move around much since the baby arrived. I need to loose weight but my husband keeps buying me snacks to make me feel better emotionally and I feel I'm eating more now than when I was pregnant. I need help!

    It's always difficult with a new baby, so don't be too hard on yourself.

    I've had 3 children - my youngest is 9 months - so just give yourself time. I've never had a c-sec, never even needed stitches, but I've still waited until after my 6 week check for exercise, apart from walking.

    Maybe ask your husband to buy some healthier snacks for you, and once you're healed start taking your baby for walks.

    Feel free to add me.
