I've had twins, and it takes a lot more work to keep things interesting after those beautiful babies are here. Men love attention, and he's not getting all of the attention he's used to getting from you. I started giving more verbal compliments and affirmations throughout the day, which inevitably turns in to more attention at night, if you know what I mean. If you coo over a baby or something they've done, somehow fit in a compliment for him too. It may seem too simple, but it works.

I absolutely agree that you should sit down and have a talk w/your hubby and just tell him how your feeling. Don't just suffer in silence maybe if you share w/him the insecurities your experiencing he will help out more w/the babies and allow you some much needed "ME TIME". I don't know if you have the babies on a schedule or not ,but that can also help so maybe you can get some more Zzzzzzzzzs:) Also you definitely need to fit in some exercise not just to lose weight ,but because exercise it good for your overall health. Maybe look into a fitness class that will allow you to bring the babies like "stroller strides" ,a gym that has childcare,or if you can afford it a personal trainer that can come to you. I wish you luck i hope that things start to look more positive soon. God Bless!

It took your body nearly a year to transform into the vessel in which to give life. The weight that you gained to give birth helped keep the children heathly and happy in your womb and you should embrace everything that you have become to shelter those beautify babies. I am a mother also and I know that after having children we go through many emotional and physicl changes. Just because you have gained weight doesnt mean that you cannot take it off when you and your body are ready. If you are a breastfeeding mother it is very important to your milk to continue to eat a healthy diet to maintain your milk. You can eat low fat foods, drink lots of water and get as much exercise as you can. When your children are done breast feeding you can start to focus on getting to the size you want to get too. I would suggest looking into the 6 week body makeover. It works but it takes commitment and time. Nothing comes easy. Don't worry if you want the pre-baby body you will get it. As for Your hubby not paying you any attention. Well it is very important to discuss this with him. We are not mind readers, there may be issues that you may never have thought about. So try to talk to him. And most of all take care of yourself, get your rest and take soem time out for you. You can't take careof others if you cant take care of yourself. Dear Giver of Life,
