Weight gained after having a baby?

Question

Hey ladies,
I’m curious how much weight everyone has gained after having a baby? 
So far, I have gained about 20 lbs and I am currently 29.5 weeks along with a singleton. 
Kindly comment singleton/twins(etc) and weight gained after having the baby. 
Thanks so much ❤️👍

Answer

My first I gained over 50 during pregnancy and lost nearly all of it before getting pregnant again when she was 9 months old. 
My second I gained about 40 pounds during pregnancy and lost some of it but then ended up on domperidone for breastfeeding issues and gained 45 pounds by the time she was 7 months old. 
I started this third pregnancy with some of that weight still. Hopefully after this baby i lose it.

Answer

First, prepregnancy to 2 days before my water broke - 2 lbs
Second - prepregnancy to the day before my water broke - 8 lbs
Third - prepregnancy to 12 wks today - -10lbs so far
1 i’m overweight to start with
2 I’ve been sick or very sick with babies 1 & 3 to start off and with baby 2 I got a little sick, but also had the flu at about 6 wks and dropped weight quickly
3 I make much better food choices when I’m pregnant because feeding my babes is motivation for me to eat right that I just can’t seem to find when I’m not pregnant. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’ve come out of both pregnancies 20 lbs lighter than I was when I started simply by giving birth. Then I usually drop another 10-15 in the first couple weeks and level off for a while. Then slowly gain it back over the next year or so and end up right where I started (or worse after baby 2 😞). Then I’m pregnant again and we start the cycle over 😂 I’m hoping maybe once we’re done having babies and I don’t have so many highly dependent children, I can get some more permanent control. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

I gained 65 with my first and last 40 the first month. I'm still trying to lose the last 15 but my Dr never got mad at my weight because despite it being high I was gaining the right amount monthly. It didn't help I bloated really bad towards the end.
