I recently did some redecorating and asked my husband to take our wedding photo down so that I could put something else in its place. (I know, I'm a romantic devil aren't I!) I forgot to tell him what to do with it, and quite frankly I hadn't given it any thought. He ended up putting it on a wall in our bedroom and I just noticed it last night. Ugh. I was much heavier when we married than I am now. I don't necessarily want the reminder of that in our bedroom, for heavens sakes! But I haven't said anything..I've given up pointing out my flaws to him--if he likes the photo well enough to hang in our bedroom, then I'm gonna let it be.
Anyway, I just wanted to say that I don't think men want or need a woman to look like a young lady. They want a woman who takes care of herself, regardless of whether she's had children or not. Besides, what does having kids have to do with anything anyway? Sure, I've got stretch marks and things sag in places..but overall, my body looks a ton better after kids than it did before.
If your man doesn't appreciate a real woman, then he doesn't know what he's missing.
