Body image at 6 months pp

been away for a bit. i’m 6 months pp now and still trying to get used to my new body. it’s weird, i know i’ve lost some weight since giving birth, but when i look in the mirror, i still see the same person i saw at 9 months pregnant.

does anyone else have this issue? like, my brain knows i’m smaller, but my eyes don’t. i’ve been tracking my progress, 27 weeks pp and i’m down 15 pounds from my highest weight, but it doesn’t feel like it.

i’m starting to think it’s not just about the number on the scale, but about how my body has changed. anyone have any thoughts on this?
