I slouch or hunch even when I'm standing or walking! Oddly, I have a very strong core, but I just naturally slouch I guess. I blame it on the fact that I have a petite frame with big boobs, so they pull me forward, LOL. But really, when I'm walking around, they do strain my back unless I'm wearing a sports bra. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868813 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 18:52:54 +0000 jhd 868813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>it's not bad, but could use some improvement. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868765 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 18:35:48 +0000 Foodnerd81 868765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really. It's not great but not terrible when I am walking or standing, but sitting it's terrible. I have a weak core and upper back and it's caused back problems for me, so I'll get on a kick and do all my PT exercises and it really helps... then I get lazy. </p> <p>Now pregnant I feel like I'm just walking around with my belly out all the time and obviously you can't really hold your stomach in! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868726 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 18:16:07 +0000 mrs. bird 868726@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no. i have a screwy spine though- a reverse curvature in my neck that has calcification fusing it that way, a floating chip out of a disk in my back, and one hip is higher than the other which causes an S curve in my back. when i went to a chiropractor for the first time &amp; had x-rays done, he was horrified. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868724 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 18:15:13 +0000 Dandelion 868724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No not really. I have better posture when I'm walking and standing up, but sitting I look terrible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868709 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 18:09:05 +0000 Mrs. Pen 868709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really. It crosses my mind every few minutes at work since I'm in a chair. But I hunch a lot. </p> <p>We have desks that move up/down to stand or sit so it's nice to take breaks between the two. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868697 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 17:59:27 +0000 Bookish 868697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's been really bad since I got pregnant. I've always tried to have decent posture....but I'm so weight heavy in front right now that it's just not happening :p </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868696 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 17:57:43 +0000 Smurfette 868696@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sadly, no </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868670 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 17:33:06 +0000 Pepper 868670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: Yes, I'm very aware of it! I really notice how I slouch when I look at pictures... I make a conscious effort to stand up straight in pictures now. Using the computer has ruined me, I think! I slouch at my desk all day long. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868634 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 17:16:23 +0000 .twist. 868634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@deerylou: haha!

I have big boobs, and I'm pregnant, so I probably look like a midget version of the Hunchback of Notre Dame. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868625 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 17:13:59 +0000 jmarionsmith 868625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ugh no. i know i'm going to be hunchbacked when i'm older... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868620 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 17:12:25 +0000 Mrsjets 868620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: I think I was lazy about it in the beginning - I'm going to make an effort to be more posture aware next time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868614 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 17:11:02 +0000 katsupgirl 868614@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have good posture when I think about it. LOL! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868611 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 17:10:15 +0000 .twist. 868611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pepper: Is it something you've always been aware of? Tried to correct? I became aware of posture really early on in life. Kind of weird, but my friends were all in ballet and would tell me how important posture was, and so I worked hard to make myself have good posture even though I wasn't in ballet (weirdo kid right here!) </p> <p>@Mrsjets: You mean to tell me that after I give birth I still have to look forward to bad posture through breastfeeding! waaah! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868606 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 17:07:52 +0000 Mrsjets 868606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did, then I got pregnant, then I breast fed for 12+ months. I'm working on it but its tough! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868602 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 17:06:24 +0000 Pepper 868602@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have terrible posture, made even worse by pregnancy. I slouch all the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-good-posture-1#post-868597 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 17:04:00 +0000 .twist. 868597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you have good posture? </p> <p>I used to have great posture but feel like being pregnant, this belly weighs me down and my posture has definitely suffered. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wish-i-was-pregnant-again#post-50126 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 04:30:03 +0000 looch 50126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, totally. I loved my pregnancy and I would love to do it again, but I realize that the next pregnancy might be totally different.</p> <p>I too loved the body image I had while pregnant. I just loved the way I could wear clothes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wish-i-was-pregnant-again#post-50095 Tue, 10 Jan 2012 22:16:26 +0000 BabyBruins 50095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like i'm in a similar situation after having an unexpected c-section 6 weeks early. I was not ready to have my pregnancy be over. I was comfortable with how I looked and I hadn't gotten " too big" that I was uncomfortable either.<br /> It all happened so fast and I feel like I just wasn't ready for my pregnancy to be over and to start being a mom. I kind of feel angry about it.<br /> I'm sure I wouldn't have felt ready if I had made it to my due date, but I feel like I would have been in a better place mentally since that would have been when it was "supposed" to happen. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wish-i-was-pregnant-again#post-50046 Tue, 10 Jan 2012 18:53:11 +0000 reggie 50046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I remember the first night home from the hospital.. Eli was in the bedroom next door to us sleeping in his own crib with the doula in his room. I told my husband I really wish he was still in me so I would know that he is safe and warm and comfy... but I'm sure you'll forget about this feeling once your LO starts to smile and coo :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wish-i-was-pregnant-again#post-50043 Tue, 10 Jan 2012 18:42:27 +0000 Katm558 50043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's really bad, but I know how you feel. It's bad for me because I had another complicated pregnancy, was in and out of the hospital, on bed rest for 13 weeks, and then had to be induced. So, I had two really difficult pregnancies, but I totally want to be pregnant again! I think I just want to have a normal pregnancy, wear cute maternity clothes, and have a baby shower. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wish-i-was-pregnant-again#post-49925 Tue, 10 Jan 2012 14:26:32 +0000 rachiecakes 49925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Although I don't wish I was pregnant, I gave birth a week before Christmas and had been on bedrest since the week before Thanksgiving. I was thinking this opening about the next holiday and thought, "New Years", lol... I feel like I missed the holidays this year. I'm looking forward to him getting bigger (we're having weight gain issues) and celebrating holidays together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wish-i-was-pregnant-again#post-49891 Tue, 10 Jan 2012 13:42:38 +0000 Coastinganon 49891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had my second baby, a girl, at the end of October and she was 9 days early and the labor was fast...like, got-to-the-hospital-30-minutes-before-having-her fast. Since it was just before Halloween and then we headed right into the holidays, I feel like I have been on a whirlwind and, yes - I know this sounds crazy, it seems like I skipped having her.</p> <p>There is this weird part of me that wishes I was still pregnant. Partly because my body image when pregnant is 1000x better than when not. Partly because I miss the connection with my baby. And partly because it went so fast, I sort-of feel like I got gyped out of bonding birthing experience.</p> <p>Anyone else ever feel this way? </p>
