AceShowbiz - Carrie Underwood found the struggle to regain her figure after her second pregnancy "frustrating" after bouncing back so quickly the first time around.
The singer, who fronts her own activewear line CALIA, has opened up about her challenging fitness journey following the arrival of Jacob in January, a little brother for her four-year-old son Isaiah.
"After having my first kid, I felt like I bounced back fast. And then with Jake (Jacob), it was like my body took a minute to get back to me. It was frustrating, because I'm like, 'Why wasn't it like the first time?'," Carrie tells People magazine.
Now the "Cry Pretty" hitmaker has learned to be less hard on herself.
"But I'm four years older. That also helped me shift my mindset - I'm still working hard, wanting to be the best me possible, but cutting myself slack and just thinking, 'Be kind to yourself.' It's amazing what we (women) do to ourselves. We're probably all our toughest critics."
