When did you return to prepregnacy weight?

[Anonymous]

I came home from the hospital 14 pounds lighter the first time and 16 pounds the second time. But, BUT, I had hyperemesis, was slightly overweight with number 1 and at target weight with #2 although 9 years older. I could not eat 2 months pp as the nausea still remained. I rather have had some pounds to lose and actually eating.

How have you done it?

30-45 minutes of home workouts 4-5 days a week. I do growithjo on YouTube right from my living room. I’ve never loved working out so much and gotten results so fast. I also try to do intermittent fasting on the week days, but I don’t always. I count calories, but I do try to be mindful with food. However, I do treat myself. If I restrict myself I tend to binge.

By HS graduation of our youngest. Wish I were kidding, but I carried around a lot of extra weight for a long time

I was back to the same number after about 3 months but weight distribution was still off. Had much more belly fat which made it hard to fit into old pants. 2 years later I’m getting close to actually feeling back to pre-pregnancy body shape.

2 weeks postpartum. I was obese, gained only 10 lbs during pregnancy, and lost it all and more breastfeeding.

Use surrogates.

Kids are 7 and 3. Truth is - never. Pregnancy did a number on my pelvic floor and I can’t run anymore. And running 30 min to an hour most days was how I stayed at a size 0 and 115 pounds. It torches calories and I can’t do it anymore and nothing is a real replacement for that. Not to mention, I never have that kind of time to workout - my kids have special needs and sleep poorly so there’s no way I can wake up at 5 am and exercise like some can. My hips, feet, rib cage, and chest are all also bigger. I have a lot more empathy for women after kids. I love mine but they wrecked my pelvic floor and core and unless I have surgery no amount of pelvic floor physical rehab or core restoring exercise programs are gonna fix me.

I was told to give yourself 9 months. That’s how long it took to grow a baby. Go easy on yourself.

Gained 35 lbs during pregnancy. By 3 weeks, had lost 20 lbs (baby was almost 9 lbs tho).

But now these last 15… I’m only 10 weeks out but I can tell they won’t budge until I stop breastfeeding

For my first, 5 months. I was hanging onto 10 extra lbs until I stopped eating chips and cookies at 3 months and then the weight fell right off. But my stomach didn’t get flat again. It wasn’t jiggly, though, it just looked like I was 2 months pregnant. I guess my uterus was permanently stretched out.

I’m 4 months PP from my second baby now, and 2 lbs heavier than my pre-pregnancy weight. I expect I’d lose it if I stopped the junk food again. I’ve been using a Bellefit corset this time but it’s not helping much. I doubt I’ll ever have a flat stomach again.

Breastfed both babies. Walked a ton with the first but not as much with the second, as it was a winter birth. No other exercise.

This isn’t a thing. You need to build your core back.

Oh that’s good to know! I’m actually in PT now for that. It’s my second c-section and I don’t want to feel weak for a year again.
