I have 4 kids and I just bought a pair of size 3 jeans that fit!

I sometimes look at my figure and I almost cannot believe that that slim waistline belongs to me! I have always been a natural size 5-6 when it comes to jeans and such. When I walked out of the hospital the day after having my (now 18 year old) daughter I was even wearing a size 6. When not preggers I am normally a five. The other day my bf and I went out shopping and he handed me a pair of hip huggers off of the size 5 rack that he liked. They fit really well and we both loved the so we bought them. When we got them home we noticed the tag on them said that these jeans are size 3. So though I feel like I am fighting the battle of the bulges since I stopped dancing, apparently I am also winning. Though my daughters are both size 1's. My mother and father are both large people and so I have struggled with my weight off and on since I was a child but I have maintained a healthy weight and a good figure despite having the 4 children. I feel good! No in fact I feel great!

It is good that you have managed to get your figure back after 4 children and im sure alot of women may be envious of you. But in my own personal view's as a male, and please dont take this the wrong way but I think you must look horrible. That really is to skinny, and with all the media hype about anorexic children trying to conform to soceity view's of what is normal, you should try and set a good example to your children regarding what size frame they should be. Im sure ive read somewhere that being slightly over weight by a couple of pound's, you are actually more healthy than you would be with your size figure.

That's awesome and as a guy let me tell you a secret: I'm sure many women would envy your figure since you are a mom of 4 kids! Though I am not the fussy kind of guy, I do think that it is amazing that you are able to maintain your figure and keep healthy so that your children would be able to have you stronger and healthier each time. And I think your boyfriend truly appreciates that.

Well done,im a mother of three grown ups but I really struggled to ever get my figure back afterwards.My daughters both have had kids and they both went back to there normal size more or less straightaway,they didnt need to exercise much at all.But I really tried hard to regain some kind of figure after the births,but I think my eating habits were too bad.
