Does anyone weigh the same as they did before their baby?

Question

I was around 130 before getting pregnant, and had planned on losing a few pounds if my husband and I couldn't get pregnant right away. I'm due in 8 weeks and currently around 165. I could use some inspiring stories from other moms out there, because the idea of dropping this extra weight I've put on seems very daunting right now. 😳 how long did it take you to get back to your pre pregnancy weight? How did you do it?

Answer

I weighed about 200 before getting pregnant.  I gained about 35-40 lbs. and now my son is 6 months old and I weigh about the same (a little under 200). I haven't tried to lose any weight. I do breastfeed, though, and I love going for walks and pushing the stroller. I haven't changed my diet though.

Answer

I was 23 when I had my first and I gained 55 pounds. It wasn't to tough getting the weight off after having her. Took me about 4 months to get back to pre pregnancy weight. Getting back to work helped me a lot.

Answer

I gained 65 pound with my first. Starting around 135. A lot of it was water weight. I went to the doctor a week after delivering and had lost 30 pounds in that week, because it was all just extra fluid. Then, after I was given the okay to start working out again it only took me a couple month to drop the next 30. However, I was 19 at the time, so it may have been easier.

Answer

I gained 15lbs throughout my whole pregnancy and lost all of it a week after I delivered. Then lost 5lbs more the week after. Didn't do anything but eat more junk food. I blame the stress and lack of sleep. And breastfeeding, they say it helps a lot, which in my case it sure did
