My Post-Baby Body Transformation Journey 💙

Hey Bleu Bells,

I’m just going to be real with y’all – this post-baby body has me feeling some kind of way, and if I’m honest, I don’t like it. 😔 I’m feeling insecure, out of my element, and completely overwhelmed by how different my body looks after having Sariah. The darkness of my skin, the lower belly pudge... it’s all messing with my confidence. Now, don’t get me wrong – it’s not like I had the highest confidence to begin with, but one thing I did pride myself on was having a flat stomach and a naturally nice shape. I worked hard for that. I loved going to the gym, hitting hot yoga, and eating healthy. That was the old Shay, and I’m trying to get back to her. 💪🏽

Recently, I took a huge step and posted my first video, 8 Days Postpartum Body Reveal. Let me tell you, it was NOT easy. 😩 Filming that video, let alone watching it, was one of the hardest things I’ve done. I felt incredibly insecure, but I knew I had to face it head-on. If I’m going to get through this, I might as well put my flaws out there for everyone to see, right? And this way, you all can hold me accountable as I work on getting my body back. 💙

Let’s be real – after having the baby, I thought I’d be walking around with that post-Ciara body... flat stomach, loving life. Boy, was I wrong. I truly thought that once I gave birth, my body would just bounce back. The reality? It’s a whole different story. 🙃

But this is my journey now. It’s not pretty, and it’s not glamorous, but it’s real. This is what it looks like to go from having a flat stomach, to carrying a baby, giving birth, and now dealing with the aftermath. But I’m not giving up. I’m pushing myself every day to work on it, to get back to the gym, to hit yoga again, and to love this new journey. This is my BleuBody Challenge – my mission to reclaim my confidence and love my body again. 💙

And let’s not forget about my little BabyBleu Sariah, who is already growing into a beautiful young lady. Can you believe it?! She’s so alert, opening her eyes, smiling, and making my heart sing every single day... well until it’s time for bed. 😅 That’s when she turns into a whole new baby, and the real struggle begins, y’all! Sleepless nights, trying to calm her down and figure out a routine... it’s no joke!

Hi my name is Sariah. 

I love these moments

She hates the swaddle lol

I can't even brush my teeth lol 

This baby is attached to my hip! I love it!

Newborn photo shoot coming soon...

On top of all that, I’m still trying to keep up with content for the blog, dropping new videos on YouTube and introducing Sariah into the whole scene. It’s been wild, but honestly, this is my passion. I’m even working on building a brand for Sariah herself! Can you believe it? I went from Shaybleu to now having this new project: Sariah & Shay — this is indeed the next chapter, y'all.

I can’t believe this is my life now, but I love it. I’d rather do this full-time — creating content, building this brand, and sharing my life with you all — than anything else. So get ready for the new wave of BleuWealth because Sariah and Shay are about to make some serious moves! 💙👶🏽

Join me on this incredible journey, and thank you for the love and support, Bleu Bells! 💙
