BTDT - weight
How much weight came off right after you delivered? I am trying to figure out how much I can expect lose right after and what will be a work in progress.

Re: BTDT - weight
I gained 35 lbs total. Delivered by emergency c-section. When went back to the doc a week later, I lost 20 lbs. The remaining 15 kind of trickled off over the next 4-5 months.

Re: BTDT - weight
With DD I gained 60+  (yeah, yeah, i know) and after delivery and when I left the hospital I was down over 20 pounds and lost another 20 within 4 months.
With this one, I gained 35 and will probably lose alot in the delivery room again, I had ployhydramnios with DD's pregnancy and this one so I have an insane amount of amniotics fluid and fluid retention, OB called it "rapid weight loss" when I deliver. I hope to BF this time and lose more weight than last time.

Re: BTDT - weight
#1 I gained 66. When I left the hospital I lost 3 pounds!!! I think it was from the emergency c/s and being pumped with a lot of IV - considering DS was 10+ pounds and I had elevated amniotic fluids.
#2 I gained 56. I lost 15 pounds in the hospital - scheduled c/s, 10-8 and high fluids again.
Both times I lost the weight by 6 months, but did gain 5-10 pounds after 
#3 I'm up 46 with 8 days to go!

Re: BTDT - weight
I gained 45 and lost 28 within the first 3 weeks. I've been stalled out since then and I'm now 12 weeks pp. I'm getting pretty frustrated at this point...

Re: BTDT - weight
i gained around 50 (i stopped looking around 42ish). by 6 weeks PP i had lost about 30. now i am 7 weeks and working on those last 20. i lost about 25 pounds by 2 weeks pp, and ive been losing about a pound a week since then. not exactly rapid weight loss but i guess it is better than nothing.
