Re: Weight Gain

Not to discourage you, but I just lost the last few pounds of my 61 pound weight gain from DD!!!!! I am short and looked so big! As everyone says, it took 10 months to put it on so be patient and it will take at least that long to get it off..or longer because you have a LO to take care of! I am so busy running after her as her 1st birthday is 1.5 weeks away and she is crawling and cruising all over the place...especially all the places she doesn't belong! lol

Moral: You'll lose it!

Re: Weight Gain

With DS #1 I gained 50lbs, it took about 10 months but I lost it all without any effort...I never exercised or ate any differently. After birth I lost about 15lbs right away.

With DS #2 I gained about 43. Now 3 weeks PP I am down over 30lbs.

Dont worry about it! Just enjoy the last few days of your pregnancy...it will come off!
