I asked my mom how long it took her to lose her baby weight. I was just curious.
"I didn't have any baby weight."
What? How is that possible?
"When I went in for my 6-week post-partum check-up, I had actually lost weight from before I was pregnant."
Uhh...
"I was so busy I didn't have time to have cravings so when I did eat all the food went to the baby."
Then I asked her about the c-section issue, because Katie had expressed disgust with the idea.
"I was in labor for 28 hours with Matt and the baby's life was in danger at that point. I was too small."
She's very petite. She's been a size 4 for most of her life and recently downsized to a size 2 thanks to her step classes.
She schedule my c-section before my due date because I was already fully developed. I told her about the potential spirituality of homebirth, already knowing the answer verbatim as to why midwifery would never appeal to her.
"It was a business transaction."
Folks, this is where I come from.
