go you!!

Same it happened but your really brave and I bless you and your children love that every one and you are safe

Love it. Getting dressed like, “Oh, hi, Canyon. That was a wild time.”

Couldn’t agree more!

Congratulations on being a mommy!! 🥰 I had an emergency c-section as well and it was tough!

Aww congrats

@@itsbubbles4021 thank you.

So glad you and your daughter are doing well. I had a c section with my daughter 2 1/2 years ago. It was crazy and unexpected but I'm so thankful she was completely healthy. And now is a crazy 2 year old.

Congrats love!

theyre not ‘imperfections’ tho

@@emilyhamm5328 that's why they put it in quotations...

@@sarahwiedenhoeft6849 its still a poor way to word it lol they couldve easily said changes instead of imperfections

It makes me think of how some Vikings gave women honors at their funerals, even a warrior's funeral, if they died in childbirth, because the acknowledged its dangers and it being this battleground. So I like to think of the physical repercussions of pregnancy as battle scars.

Hello 👋

Do you feel like you got more loose skin after the second or third? Or was it pretty much the same after having your first?

@@jessicab6305 I've had 3 c-sections aswell and I've found it's about the same now as my first baby. I'm 12 weeks postpartum with my third x

@@jenatkinson6839 well that's good to hear to. Congrats on all the little ones you're quite the trooper with 3 c sections. I'm getting induced on Monday with my first.

Ya true

Tortia tolk have you ever thot of coming to South Africa

Usually when a woman looks as beautiful as Colleen does, all the other ladies feel worse by comparison, but she makes all of us (including and especially pregnant women like myself) feel better about ourselves.

True!!!!

your body just went through so many changes. it's not fair for anyone to think it's supposed to look like nothing happened. you're beautiful not because of what you look like, but because of who you are and how you treat other people. and you just GREW AN ENTIRE BEING and then birthed them!!!! you experienced something that makes billions of people quake with fear and you made it through. you've been through more pain and struggle than billions of other people will ever experience and you became a warrior. you just accomplished something science can't even come close to replicating. I'm in awe of you and everyone else should be too. your body is a symbol of how you are one of the coolest people on the planet and a map of how you faced an incredible challenge every day and became a better person because you didn't give up. your baby is perfect. you created perfection. that means your body is perfect too.

@@starsaur6664 thank you so much for this, this genuinely made me cry. Your kind words have made me feel so much better about myself so again thank you so much for going out of your way to say those things 💗

After my first I felt the pressure to bounce back pretty much after leaving the hospital but she widened my hips and my body wasn’t the same as pre baby so my confidence went down I had my second and it went back kinda the way it was after having him but with baby #3 I had gestational diabetes and pre eclampsia I didn’t have any stretch marks until after I had him (in February) my hips and butt are definitely widened out more but something I wish I realized sooner was my body worked HARD SO HARD to have him here it went through diabetes and almost kidney failure which shot my blood pressure up to the point I was scheduled for a C-section for the following week and honestly I have never loved my body more I love my stretch marks my hips I love me and how I look honestly for once in my life I’ve honestly never felt better because my body worked hard for my 3 kids especially to have my last (I also had Covid while I was pregnant and with the diabetes I was scared we wouldn’t be okay)

It took 9-10 months making and growing our little ones. Be easy on yourself mama, it takes time to get it back. Congratulations btw

Congratulations!

@@MommaYeager1221 Thank you❤

First of all congrats on three babies in two years 🤯 you’re a rockstar! Also be kind to yourself! Your body went through permanent changes and won’t want to get rid of them now bc biology. You’re amazing!

@@marifazekas5650 Aww Thank you so much!!

Hello 👋

Her hair is gorgeous

what is hernias? also your so strong!!

@@gordythecat my husband had one years before me so I kind of knew what they felt like, but just to confirm I went to my doctor and he did a ct scan.

@@s0fthowell33 a hernia is basically where your stomach muscles have a hole in them and your insides kind of poke out.

@@s0fthowell33 also thank you for calling me strong! At the time it was super hard emotionally, and I felt so alone. ❤️

same

Congrats 🎈🎊

your body won't look like anyone else's body, because it'll be the coolest body on the planet for just having created a perfect human being.

I’m 31 weeks pregnant right now! Eat what you can when you can and don’t listen to other peoples opinions you know what your body needs best! Best of luck and congratulations on your little one 🥰

OH MY GOSH IT IS!!

You are perfect and amazing!

@@cecybellard1 ❤️

Omg I was literally looking for this comment!!!! I was going to say the same thing!❤️

Same, I saw c-section scar before and I'm pretty sure it was way bigger.

Her belly was way bigger then too

Her babies were born at 32 weeks, they were much smaller than a full term baby, therefore the incision wouldn’t have needed to be any wider Your stomach is also bigger when pregnant, so the incision could have been “longer” but as your body goes back down to its new normal size, the incision won’t look as long

Adding to the replies, doctors generally try to keep the opening small because the tight pressure babies feel on their body as they come out is good for them and helps them adjust. It also generally better for the person healing, as scar tissue can be really tough and end up causing issues especially if it gets hard or needs to be released with another surgery. Also, scars can shrink or stretch depending on the person’s skin and they way they heal. Some people’s scars widen as they heal and some people’s will get really tight and shrink.

I'm pretty sure they pull in the incision back in both directions with metal instruments and then it is only one baby at a time
