Were you back to your old figure before TTC for #2?
I am back to my pre-pregnancy weight and can fit my old clothes but my body doesn't seem the same as it used to be.
We plan to TTC this summer. I can't help but wonder if my body will NEVER go back to normal. If I get pregnant again, I feel it will just be that much harder to get back to my old shape.

Not even close for me, but I have developed a thyroid condition that went undetected for years that I believe is the main reason for my issues.

Re: Were you back to your old figure before TTC for #2?
yes, i'm working on getting it BETTER than before! That's my goal...lol. We are also TTC this summer. Try pilates!! I've really gotten into it. I feel like it's such a good workout and really helps sculpt ur body. I want to keep it up through my second pregnancy so hopefully I won't gain as much weight this time and it will be easier to get back in shape after DC #2. I was very lazy during/after my 1st pregnancy and it really took a toll on me mentally and emotionally when I felt out of shape and overweight and exhausted after having DD.

I def think it is possible to get into better shape. It just requires dedication. My closest mommy friend has a personal trainer and she looks fantastic.
After work, I am overwhelmed with housework and errands galore. I feel tired all the time. I guess I have no excuse since I never work out. I need a lifestyle change.

I lost all the weight with my 1st in 9 days. With my 2nd it took much longer.

Weight-wise...yes.
But my body was not the same. I just didn't have the time to work out as much as I did pre-baby.

I got back to my pre-pregnancy pretty quickly. My friends all say I look the same but I don't feel the same at all. DH says I am back to normal also.
I used to live such an active lifestyle before DS. Now I feel tired ALL the time. It's not as bad as when DS was a newborn but it feels pretty close.

Same for me. I was working after I had DD and devoted every minute I was home to her. During the summer I would go running after she went to bed. But once it got dark again I stopped.
Then I got pregnant and have been pretty much exhausted all of the time. Bad MS....so I never worked out at all with this pregnancy like I did with my first. But I've gained less weight with this pregnancy.

I know what you mean, but even though it's hard you have to try and set aside time to take care of yourself. you'll feel so much better for doing it in the long run. the other stuff WILL get taken care of !

Re: Were you back to your old figure before TTC for #2?

Re: Were you back to your old figure before TTC for #2?
I lost the baby weight plus 5 pounds within 2 weeks after I had Abby. I put back maybe 10 and stayed there tilI got PG with Zippy. As for my body, having a baby at 38 and 40 will do very different things to your skin that someone 10 years younger than that, so was my body the same? He ll no.

Re: Were you back to your old figure before TTC for #2?
Yes- I was. I lost all of the weight and then 5 more pounds.
Not as "toned" in the mid section but everyone, including DH, said I looked great and my old clothes fit fine.
DS was 19 months when I got pregnant again. I just had DS #2 5 weeks ago. I have about 7 pounds left. I didn't gain as much with the second pregnancy, probably because I was chasing a toddler around.
We'll see how I look after this baby. I am no spring chicken at almost 38 so I don't know...

Re: Were you back to your old figure before TTC for #2?
Yes...actually 3lbs less...
I wouldn't start TTC until I was at that point, because I thought that it would make the old preggo weight that much harder to lose!

Re: Were you back to your old figure before TTC for #2?
I never really got a chance to get back to normal as I became pregnant with #2 just 3 months after having DD. Plus, I had gained 70lbs during that pregnancy and had only lost 50 of that. So I was still up 20lbs. I really worry that it's going to take FOREVER for me to get back to normal after this baby comes.

Re: Were you back to your old figure before TTC for #2?
After having DD, I did get back to my normal weight. My figure, um, not so much, but I've come to realize that's never coming back. After about 2 years, I started to gain some weight & that's when I got pregnant. DS is now 13 months & I actually weigh less than my PP weight before my first pregnancy. My figure will still never be the same
