[quote=Anonymous]From my experience, weight loss is just different postpartum. I gained 40lbs both pregnancies, lost 20lbs almost immediately and then lost another 10lbs at the 3mo(ish) mark and then lost the rest of the weight around 6mo. For whatever reason, it felt like the weight would stick for a bit and then come off in waves rather than gradual loss on a week by week basis. Granted, I don’t diet or exercise for weight loss so this is how things naturally happened for me following my own hunger cues and being active in ways that I enjoy. I, too, have a somewhat thin and athletic build so it can be weird feeling a bit heavier than usual but, if possible, I think it can be helpful to relax and just have faith that your body is responding to nursing and hormones and all that goes into mothering the way it should be. I remember freaking out about losing weight with my first, though, so I can empathize with you and wish you the best in feeling back in your own skin. [/quote]
