“Bakit hindi ka pa pumapayat, eh nagpapabreastfeed ka naman?”
Ah yes, the unsolicited comment na walang expiration date. Yes, breastfeeding burns calories… pero it also turns me into a human rice cooker na laging gutom.
Motherhood doesn’t come with a countdown timer for “balik-alindog.” Some moms lose weight fast, some don’t, and BOTH are valid.
My body is busy keeping another human alive, not meeting your beauty standards. So instead of asking bakit di ako pumapayat, try mo na lang magpasalamat na may nanay na healthy, happy, at present para sa anak niya.
Every curve, every stretch mark, every pound tells the story of how I became a mother.
