[quote=Anonymous]Same. Always been thin until I get pregnant and gain 60lbs both times. It’s definitely hormonal since I don’t eat that much more - nothing to justify gaining that much. 2nd time around I did Pilates on a regular basis and that helped me with strength, flexibility but I still gained a lot of weight despite exercising up until 39 weeks. I find eating oatmeal in the morning helps me eat fewer calories throughout the day although again didn’t see a big difference across pregnancies. I lose about 20-25lbs the first week (liquids and baby weight - I have big babies), and then maybe 10-15lbs over next 6 months despite breastfeeding and not eating a lot (strangely I have no appetite when breastfeeding and remind myself to eat to keep supply), then I lose everything but 10lbs once I wean at 12 months pp. the last 10 I can lose when I approach it from a weightloss perspective (calorie deficit and exercise)[/quote]
