Hello there 'hi_it_is_me123',
Pregnancy is a beautiful thing. And the power of the female body to transform itself to hold, carry and birth a human child is a wonder to behold. If a man is lucky enough to be with a woman who loves him enough to receive him, become pregnant, carry his and her child, and endure the birthing, then he should look upon her body with utmost admiration, adoration and love. Now there are methods used by many women to reduce the aftereffects on the skin caused by stretching during pregnancy. And you can look into those things. But don't let your fears deny you the most beautiful gift the female body can give - the gift of life. Any man who body shames a woman for that doesn't deserve her! I hope this helps lend another perspective on the miraculous beauty of the journey a woman's body takes during pregnancy.
This kind of loose skin is extremely rare - meaning this is an extreme example of what can happen. Most women do get stretch marks, and most have a bit of a belly pooch, but it's nothing like this. I'd bet this result occurs in less than 1 in 100,000 child-bearing women - it's not like 2 in 10 women will look like this after a pregnancy.
You are freaking yourself out by looking at the very worst extremes. That's not smart or healthy.
Oh really!. Thanks for the explaining it.
Most women will look something like this:
Of course, you don't want to gain 100 pounds - just because you are pregnant doesn't mean that you can eat as much of whatever you want, because if you do, you'll get huge and then you CAN have more serious problems. But, yeah, stretch marks and a bit of a pooch is typical - the extremely loose skin is the exception to the rule. And that woman may have had twins or something that really stretched her skin, or she may just have skin that is susceptible to that kind of wrinkling. But it's not the norm.
This is true. My mum had three of us pretty much close together and never got this. Think it also depends on your body's resilience? I don't know. My mum has some stretch marks and that's about it.
They would be ok with it as they can't control it. It just happens. What can he do? Leave the woman because of this?
A woman is a woman and is still attractive to him even with the lose skin.
I have never been pregnant but I have heard that you can reverse the lose skin with time by fasting.
Don't be scared of pregnancy as it's something that can't be avoided. I was scared a lot all my life and still am from it. But what is worse is going through that and other artificially injected pain that people give to themselves.
Wow a great post. I agree with you
I would be very upset if the Person I was with didn’t accept this. To the guys that don’t: your lady is probably already feeling bad about her body , her lack of freedom etc. please do not think loose skin from pregnancy is gross. It’s a part of pregnancy , and body changes are already something we are self conscious about during those times
I agree with you
@t-8900 very respectable response! Everyone goes through weight issues

Wow, it's not that bad... Actually, I'm amazed how quickly the female body recovers after such trauma. We have two kids and in neither case was the skin sagging that bad. My wife had stretch marks but hardly an "eye sore". The hardest thing was vaginal delivery can tear the skin between the vagina and asshole. That happened on our first requiring stitches. I took two weeks from work and did everything for my wife. The labor process was tough (at least for me to watch) when it came to the pushing but that phase didn't last too long. Definitely get an epidural, that was a huge help for my wife and made labor much more manageable.
You'll care less about what you look like, etc when your baby is born. Nothing will prepare you for that feeling when you see their face and hear their cries for the first time. I'm a pretty emotionless guy but god, I cried uncontrollably when both my kids were born.
If he's not then he doesn't deserve to be a father. I wouldn't build a family with a man who was so superficial lol
Like 99% of women get saggy stretched out skin from pregnancy. The stretch marks will fade somewhat and if you workout you can reduce the stretchiness of the skin to some degree. Also if you want to (and can afford it) you can have surgery to remove excess skin.
I have 3 kids and my tummy is no where near as bad as those pics. It's all about genetics like if your mom had strech marks you will likely have them too so maybe ask your mom about if pregnancy was hard on her body or not to see how it will be for you
Most tummy's go back to normal. Sometimes there are some light stretch marks.
I've never seen anything as bad as that photo. What happened her her stomach? Did she gain 100 pounds and have a 22 pound baby?
Something more than just a standard pregnancy must have happened.
Ya I want kids so if this happens it is what it is. It will get better with diet, exercise, and supplements. All by the way are things that should already be going on so we can live a healthy long life together. I'd never stop loving her and once you have a deeper emotional connection you will get mental stimulation for sex more than physical.
I don't like it. But not out of choice. Like some things you just don't decide on, like whether you like cilantro.
It's definitely something I'd overlook though.
Having a loving wife and child is 100x better than a wife who has perfect skin.
As far as remedies, I've heard something about essential oils preventing stretch marks, but you'll need to do your own research on that.
With loose skin, ironically I think the solution may be to gain enough weight to fill out the skin, then lose it at a slow enough pace that allows your skin to toghten again. (Skin can only tighten so fast, which is why fast weight loss leaves so much loose skin)
You can lose hair and teeth and eventually have saggy skin from a single fight as well. If a guy won't be with you because of something that is natural and can be fixed then they are not worth your time. But if you are not willing to work on it afterwards and let yourself just fall apart then him having desires isn't wrong.
Desires? You can't get fallen teeth back or tight skin when it is too loose? I heard it is permanent for some women and the only way to get rid of it is surgery
Well yeah, fake teeth or dentures. And saggy skin can be removed. But also unless your belly is enormous from child birth your skin and body are prepared and your skin can shrink back to normal or close. Skin stays saggy after birth only if you decide not to take care of yourself afterwards. Plus all of this isn't normal circumstances, child birth is natural and side effects to the point of losing teeth isn't a normal accurance. Otherwise you would see millions of women with empty mouths
Ok this is fair but i personally would not get fake teeth except it many of teeth are fallen. Would you also take care of your body aka work out for your wife too?
This has been worrying me as well. The more I learn about pregnancy and giving birth the less inclined I am to be pregnant. You may be able to fix these belly’s by tummy tuck which is becoming more and more common and affordable as time goes on.
Wait till you learn how much you have to work to pay for food and diapers and your whole life to be ruined by a screaming toddler who shits their pants multiple times a day.
I find it difficult to comment being a male, and without a partner that's gone through the experience. But life is all about creating new life, would you want to miss out on this experience? I was delighted to see a naked female recently, and she had given birth a long time ago, and she looked wonderful!
I don’t think that stuffs common, my aunt got pregnant with 6 kids and she doesn’t have saggy skin. As long as your diet goes back to normal after your pregnancy you’ll most likely lose the weight quickly
How many pregnant women have all of the nutrition they need? many are given poor advice by Doctors since they do not know nutrition and fear it. For example, ask a Doctor about iodine and he will shriek in fear... but a deficiency can cause cretinism in a child, and sufficient amounts can make a baby smarter. Stretchmarks... those are all related to collagen levels. Most people are deficient, and I can almost guarantee no Doctor will address this in any way when talking to pregnant women.
Look at the differences in baby IQ in relation to iodine...

My mother told me she never read anything about pregnancies, because she knows she can get scared, and either way she will be pregnant. She has 3 kids, still married to my father and they love each other. What's important is the mother to be happy so the baby can be happy.
If she had stretch marks it wouldn’t bother me at all for some women it can’t be avoided but stay hydrated and use coco butter or a good lotion to try and prevent it plus not getting pregnant too early. I’ve known plenty of moms that did natural child birth and didn’t have stretch marks so it’s very possible and any guy that’s gonna trip over a woman that bares his children having stretch marks isn’t worth keeping
In all honesty. I could be wrong but I think this happens when she also gains a lot of fat while pregnant. Which could be her own genetical response when it comes to hormones.
But if legit all she ate was junk food throughout the whole pregnancy I would be pretty pissed off.
Not just cause that was more than likely why she has loose skin, but also the baby would be very unhealthy due to the food it pulled nutrients from has little to no nutritional value
If you only eat junkfood during pregnancy, the baby most likely won't survive. I read an article that say that a woman get misscarriage due to fast food
No sane woman would do that. I think it is genetic
Yeah that wouldn’t surprise me. I brought up the genetic point also for obvious reasons. She could always look into getting it medically fixed and exercise helps with tightening the skin also since it is attached to all soft tissue. Including muscles
I would hope I'd be OK with it. I think I would.. I mean I love her at that point right. It'd be pretty unreasonable to expect to be with someone forever and not expect them to change now wouldn't it..
I expect changes to happen. All that would bother me is if she tries to hide it. It's not like I won't eventually develop a dad bod.
Time, healthy living and skin care can prevent some of it and reduce any which occurs.
I dont think you can get rid of it without surgery. I dont know.
Like I said. Prevent some and reduce. Doesn't mean totally get rid of. Just helps a bit if done right. As the skin can heal some and the tissue underneath can firm up some.
Of course I expect a lot of that is genetic. Like I went with a recommended weight loss timeline to prevent loose skin and had zero problems with loose skin. But that might just be genetics.
I used to be fat so I have stretch marks of my own, I'd remind her that I have them to so she wouldn't feel alone. Then take her out or something (this is if I would notice she's feeling bad about it)
That's one of several reasons I never wanted kids. Thankfully I can't anymore. Screw that.
These things happen no man should worry about a women with skin like that after a baby and another thing a presious gift has joined the world so the saggy skin is a good saggy uve gave birth and your child has left u feeling good
Don't care. She is my wife and I love her regardless.
Hey, she since she would get saggy stomach skin because of me (us) I wouldn't be in a position to complain. All I could and would do is to support the mother of our child.
It's fine. You can't help it cause it's life. I do support the idea of women getting a tummy tuck and it becoming a more affordable procedure souly because it does relieve a women of a lot of skin stress and back stress, especially if your a smaller women and you gave birth to Godzilla
If saggy skin is enough to make you reject a good woman, then you ought to be given a one way ticket on the next shuttle to the cosmos and left to die in the vacuum of space. Really, the superficiality by both sexes these days is incredible.
Well, i mean you're literally constructing another life. Its pretty hard on the body. I still have my stretch marks and scars
But, like the photos?
Not that it matters but I don't think most moms have that for life.
I would be very pleased that she had given birth, and I'd be equally supportive of her after giving birth.
Ex wife had a tummy tuck because of that, some womens skin don’t do well with pregnancy, some use coco butter during the pregnancy so the skin doesn’t get so bad, but yeah they lose teeth sometimes too
After significant weight loss or being pregnant, no. There is no way to avoid it. That is life.
If you want your own babies. That is one of the chances that need to be taken. Unless someone else carries the child for you.
Where did you learn it can be permanent? I've checked over 20 articles on web about loose skin after pregnancy and all of them stated it is a temporal effect.
Yeah, most moms don't have that. Some of them are fuckin smokin.
But why does it happen if the female body is designed to have babies? Simple, because if your skin didn't stretch it would tear or the baby would be crushed to death as it grew. That's like, an important part of the design.
But also, because women aren't genetically designed to be Barbie's. It's not all about looking good. That's a societal construct that has come around in the last couple hundred years or so which is a very small amount of time in genetic terms.
Can you avoid it? Absolutely. Don't have kids. That's got to be one of the less troubling side effects. I mean first of all... It doesn't last your whole fucking life like the child will. You don't even have to spend money on it.
With good diet and exercise it will go away pretty quickly. But the memories of cleaning vomit and diarrhea off of everything you own will probably change your feelings about sex for the rest of your life.
No! If she gets like that, OUT SHE GOES!!
(just kidding)
Those are battle scars to wear with pride. That loose skin will tighten up somewhat with time and a rigorous exercise regime.
Yes, she got that giving birth to our baby which makes her even more beautiful
Loose skin can be corrected with exercise that is targeted.
Wouldn't bother me. Fact of life.
Can't avoid loose skin from pregnancy, but exercise can help toning it back up.
Holy crap! What was growing inside you? Did you birth a full grown child?
Wtf no
These are pics from internet
Omg hahahajah
As a man I find that so attractive!!! You got to love the perfect imperfections! Those arm battle scars darling. You earned that sag and those tiger stripes. Rock 'em with pridestrioes.
Yeah it's from child birth there's not much she can do. Specially if it's my child I won't mind
It's a reality. If it bothers you, then you can fix it.
I mean its not the best thing but I know what I signed up for so yea
I would be VERY OKAY.
She didn’t get pregnant by herself.
No I’d leave any woman that looks like that.
I would divorce her if she got that
Then don’t get someone pregnant.
Why not just kill her, much more efficient
Typical response of a little immature child.
Oof, so many people not getting sarcasm
Yes it’s normal and okay
I honestly find saggy boobs to be very attractive
It wouldn't be a problem for me.
By the picture there that looks really ugly
I'm scared now.
Badges of honor.
Go get advice from a nurse
Its a bit weird
I hope you never become a father.
@paganwarrior he’s 19 so
