7 Ways Your Body Changes After Having Kids
5. Hair loss
It is normal to experience hair loss after pregnancy. It is because when you are pregnant your body produces a lot of estrogen and this causes hair to grow a lot and also become thick. After the birth the estrogen levels come down and your hair also falls a lot.
6. Back and hip pain
If you have had a c section, you will end up having a back pain for a long time. Normal pregnancies can also cause your hip to hurt a lot, but unlike your back pain with a c section, the hip pain goes after a while.
7. Swollen belly
Do not expect to get a flat stomach soon after the baby has gone out. You still will have a soft and a bigger belly for a few months. Also be ready to deal with the stretch marks on your stomach after you have had a kid.
You will experience these and a lot of other changes in your body after you have had a kid. Do not panic and see a doctor only when you notice something really abnormal like heavy bleeding or blood clots. Embrace your new body and give it time to heal before you go on an punishing schedule to gain you pre-baby body.
