Re: Did you weigh yourself right after you delivered?

I lost only 10 lbs. I had gained 23 lbs during the pregnancy. So I have 13 lbs to go to my pre pg weight. I am so misschapen (is that even a word). I have so much loose skin that I don't think I will fit into mypre pg clothing for a long time. I am just hoping to feel better soon and looking forward to being able to exercise again in a couple of weeks.

I gain a ton of water weight when Im pregnant..So I usually lose about 20lbs after the first week or so...10lbs baby + fluid + placenta etc...It always makes me feel like Im on the right track.

I was weighed at my 1 week post partum appt and I dropped 27 lbs!! That was all from delivering and all the water I retained because God knows I wasn't watching what I was eating after I gave birth. I am hoping for the same type of weight loss with this one too.

I gained about 27lbs or so and when I got home from the hospital I was up 15lbs this pregnancy. 2 weeks later and I weighed myself and have about 8 to go and then figuring out how to get the belly flab back to normal...

PS - Congrats on your baby girl!

I had a C-section so I weighed myself 5 days after delivery and I had literally lost only my daughter in weight (7 lbs). I was so depressed! But then the next day I lost 6 lbs and kept losing a lot and now I am only 5 lbs from my pre-pregnancy weight and 10 lbs to my goal! I am working out like crazy though and eating well. I gained 45 lbs in pregnancy!
