According to Drew Barrymore, getting her body back into pre-baby shape has been no easy task!

“After making two babies, holy cow, does your body do some crazy stuff!” the 40-year-old star said in a candid new interview.

“It’s hard to stay positive and love yourself,” she added. “You feel like a kangaroo with a giant pouch — everything’s saggy and weird.”

"You think about how beautiful it is that you’re able to make children. When I lose sight of that, I exercise, read Dr. Seuss’s 'Oh, the Places You’ll Go!' and spend time with my kids. Then I start to see things that are bigger than myself," she told 'Glamour' magazine.
