This study explored the lived experiences of and meaning made from postpartum mothers and their journey with their body image following childbirth. Using an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis design, seven women were interviewed to understand their lived experiences. The Developmental Theory of Embodiment was used to help make sense of the postpartum mothers’ experience and meaning-making processes. Themes included: (a) transformation of maternal body image, (b) sociocultural pressures of bouncing back, and (c) holding the duality of postpartum body dissatisfaction and body appreciation. Implications are provided for counselors. Recommendations include thoroughly assessing for and treating body image and related mental health needs for postpartum mothers.
