The Next Time Around

And from this photo, you can tell that she made sure to remain in better shape throughout her next four pregnancies. Despite being pregnant, Simone proves that she’s still fitter than other women who have either already given birth or haven’t even had kids yet at all. She shares, “I had just one year between two of my pregnancies and even in this time I managed to get my tummy back to normal by 3 to 4 months post baby… I didn’t have time to slave away in a gym so my routine post pregnancy was always at home and only when I had the time and energy.” You can almost hear the collective sighs of annoyance from most women looking at this picture. But like her or not, you have to admit that she’s one fit woman!

Feeling Resentful Towards Being Pregnant

Simone shares that for a time, she ‘used to feel resentful about her weight gain when she was pregnant and there were times she couldn’t recognize her own body.’ She goes on, “People thought I was mad. I even got banned from my gym by the management because they said it looked bad on them that I was training while I was pregnant.” Yet these days, she couldn’t be happier about where she is now, and her amazing bunch of 5 kids.
