how long did it take you to get your body back after baby??

Question

For those women who put in the effort to eat right, exercise, and really worked hard to get your body back after you gave birth...how long did it take you?
Before baby I was in pretty great shape. 130lbs-worked out 5-6 days a week-ate clean
When I got pregnant I had to stop working out due to health concerns in the beginning-I fell off the clean eating train-and at 34 weeks pregnant I'm weighing in at 172lbs.

I plan to work out 2-3 times a day 5 days a week-go back to eating paleo-and doing everything possible to get my body back.
I'm due Nov 2nd. At the beginning of February I have my SO's company holiday party...and I want to look hot again before then.
So factoring in healing time I have about 2 months to lose 45lbs.
Is this reasonable for somebody with a strict diet and exercise regimen who was in shape before getting pregnant?

What are your experiences??

Answer

It might be possible, just keep in mind the first few months your newborn will need a lot from you, you will be sleep deprived, so set reasonable goals. There is no way I would have had time as a new mom to workout 2-3 times a day.

Answer

With my first pregnancy it took me 6-7 months but I gain 100lbs but I did it

Answer

I was 126 pre pregnancy and back to it by 3 months post partum but that was without any diet or exercise.

Answer

5 years but it wasn't much of a body to begin with lol

Answer

I lost 20lbs in less than 2 weeks after I had my first!

Answer

There are so many things that factor into it, I'm learning. Breast feeding shreds weight off some women while it causes others to hold on to the weight. Also if you end up with a c-section that can delay things. I was fit before pregnancy and gained 43 pounds. I still have 20 to lose and I've been dieting and working out since 6 weeks post partum. I'm now 9 weeks. I had a c-section. It depends on your body and hormones I think.
