Body clings to weight

Does anyone else experience their body wanting to keep weight on after having babies? My second is now two months and my body looked better a few days pp than it does now. Been slowly creeping back up in weight and when I look back at pictures from when my now two year old was a baby I followed the same trend. Couldn’t seem to start losing weight until 4-6 months pp. 😒😒 I’m trying to just stay strong and wait for my body to release the extra fat stores again. I’m the same weight and gained the same during pregnancy but look much different this time around 😰
