I love my wife now more than ever since the birth of our daughter last year and we are always having fun, laughing and grabbing quality time together. But there is no denying that her breasts have changed as she is breastfeeding at over 18months and counting. They are very saggy and flat and I, to be honest, try not to look at them. The rest of her is amazing though. Are Scott and I the only shallow men out there or the only honest ones?? M Interesting comments from the men here.

I love my wife because she's a good mom but the attraction ended long ago when she gave up on that body. I could look past some of the sag if she tried but like so many woman, the maintenance of a good body to catch a man was summarily traded in for the love of kids, income, security and support. The rest of you guys, save Scott, are simply writing what the women want to hear because it somehow makes you feel good for taking the high ground or you are simply not being honest. Tisk tisk. My advice to women interested in this subject is to, at the very least, try to improve your girth. I know it's difficult and you'll never get that body back and that's OK (well kinda). Seriously, I think your husband would be so much more attracted to you if he saw that you were at least trying to get back into shape. Seeing the effort alone would be a turn on. But to sit back and say "Oh well, I had a baby and I'm older, so this is the way it has to be" is something the feminists have pounded into our collective heads. Is it really wrong to try and look good for your spouse? This whole idea of "I'm beautiful just the way I am" is nonsense and a lie. To conclude that it's "too late" to do something is just an excuse to justify eating the same portions and foods you did 20 years ago. This simply shows that you don't care enough to do something about it and hence, if that's the case then prepare for the inevitable marriage that will become little more than an economic arrangement.

My wifes body was excellent before the baby and now everything sags. It's horrible. Honestly I try very hard not to look at her body. Her breast remind me of raisins and her rear is even smaller then before she was pregnant and still it sags. I don't know if you guys are being honest but you can't sincerly say that your women after having a baby and breastfeeding are as attractive as prebaby standing in front of you naked. Liars.

My husband is really great to me and has never had an issue or problem with how I look, I had HUGE babies (10 and 11 pounds) 2 c-sections and gained about 60 pounds each time. I was never a size 2 but I loved being a size 7 when we met, I didn't watch the scale. Now I'm more like a size 14 and could certainly stand to drop at least 30 pounds. He has joined the military and looks far better than when we met and I'm suddenly really worried he's been lying to me about liking the way I look and not wanting my pre-baby body back, I'm scared that he'll want someone that is attractive as he is now. I don't think I really lack self confidence, I'm not a small girl but I'm pretty and I think I carry extra weight really well, people of both sexes commonly comment on my beauty. I just keep reading about how men are so visual and I get scared. My husband isn't good at putting his feelings into words and it has really made me feel better to hear some other dads chime in like this. I don't want to be 'that wife' that nags about how 'you can't possibly love this body' but I needed some confirmation, so thank you. (I realize this article is about 2 years old lol) I really, really appreciate all of these comments and this article.

My own wonderful husband has always told me that he still thinks I am beautiful and does not mind my post-baby body. But...I wasn't sure that I believed him. I suppose I thought I could attribute his response to his good-nature...I didn't believe that it was possible that he ACTUALLY still liked my body. But now I know that when you have a good man, you have a good man. They are out there, like mine, and like the guys who posted on here. Yay!
