I was 20lbs shy of pre pregnancy weight 4 months after when I unexpectantly got pregnant again, had a miscarriage :( gained like 50 back, lost 15 and im now 30 weeks pregnant.

  • Thanks ladies :) I'm feeling optimistic about losing my baby weight now. Wont be in time for bikini season but oh well.
  • I gained 60 pounds with my first! I was so big but I lost 40 by my 1 week checkup and a few months later lost all but 10 pounds. This time I am scared I am going to gain more!
  • I gained 29 lbs with my first and had lost 17 the day after he was born...he was only 5 lbs 9oz. It took me about a year to lose the rest because depression took over and the depo shot dint make it any easier
