    On my 8week visit I weighed 98pounds
    On the day I had Rylie, September 12th, I weighed 141pounds!!
    Yesterday I weighed 111 pounds! haha, I can't believe how big I got and how almost back to normal I am now lol. I wasn't even trying to loose the weight, but so thankful I did(:

    I gained 40 as well and my son is 4 weeks old...I've lost (according to home scale) 20 of it. I still have 40 to go before I'm back to where I want to be.

    @lindseynicole26 that sounds great to me losing weight u aint trying to lol thas awesome :)

    @lily_glz ull be there soon. R u breastfeeding? It helps u lose weight too :)

    @mam082711 20 is still alot of weight u lost & it takes time :) I guess just eat right & workout. I was in the hospital for a week after my daughter was born & I had gd n was on a low carb diet n it helped me lose weight also n im keeping it up :)
  • breewashington08breewashington08

    @kris100717 awe im glad I can make u feel better. Yes I had 40 & hubby said I would only drop ten & I was gona stay a big girl. I was 200 & I was 240 & now 210. Im 5'6. But nobody not even my doc could tell me to slow my role on wat to eat, this was my first pregnancy I wana enjoy my cravings as long as baby was healthy I didnt care how much I gained :) & good luck hun. Just b happy

    @lmelanson girl, I was on a low carb diet & that was it & I think its bc about out of the 7 days I was in the hospital 3 of those days I couldnt eat or drink n my stomach shrank. I was always hooked on to iv & stuff so I guess thas how I lost 30 in a week. My hubby cant beieve it. My stomach is almost gone still a lil flabby lol in the front. Hubby likes to pinch it lol but I guess just eat light n have more meals & snacks so u dont over eat when u do eat a meal.

    @kris100717 the charts they use are for ideal people aka the barbie doll types, not real people lol Before I hurt my back I was 160 and that's textbook obese for 5'6". I did NOT look obese in fact I was very toned and a size 12. Ideal textbook weight for 5'6" is something like 125lbs and if I weighed 125 I would look skeletal and like I had an eating disorder. After I hurt my back (and prepregnancy weight) I was 180 still textbook obese but I began to look chunky and moved to size 16. So according to those charts I should've gained 15 lbs. My doctor said the weight I gained was perfectly fine and was never concerned.

    I was breast feeding but stopped at 3 weeks. Now I'm stuck at 117 :(
  • NylasMommyNylasMommy
    @breewashington08 yes girl but isnt it great? And im pumping alot also bc im leaking like crazy. My shirts be having wet spots n im like wth lol
  • NylasMommyNylasMommy
    @lily_glz ohh y did u stop bf??? Did u try pumping to see if u still had milk? My baby wont latch on sometimes but I just pump n she drinks it out the bottle. Lol bc I barely have nipples n she doesnt like that :(
  • MommytoJulianWMommytoJulianW
    Wow I didnt lose much I only lost 15 lbz in two weeks I gained 50 lbs
  • lily_glzlily_glz
    I was drowning my baby bc milk would just spray out so I started pumping and my supply decreased alit so I went back yo breastfeeding but she wouldn't latch anymore :(
  • breewashington08breewashington08
    Lol I b leaking thru my shirts to. I leaked straight thru nursing pads at the store an my husband was like..um.... u jus gon walk thru the store like that? Lol sure did.
    I read in a comment u left smebody else that u bearly hav nipples. Hav u tried a shield? I hav flat nipples so I use the shield an then aftr he nurses for a few minutes I take the shield off an he latches to me perfectly. Just a thought :)
  • NylasMommyNylasMommy
    @youngmami3 its okay everyone is different but remember I wasnt well in the hospital & they would let me starve :(

    @lily_glz my daughter is not latching on also. That was good u had alot of milk. Im tryna pump alot now so I dont have to buy enfamil bc she wont take my boobs :(

    @Breewashington08 lol to u walking thru the store with wet spots... U walked in there proud to huh? I would of lmao & no I havent tried the shield. Never heard of it. Do they carry it at babies r us? Thank u for letting me kno about this I will have to check it out. Im pumping milk for her tho. I think she likes the fast flow of a bottle than breast. Shes so chunky

    @caroline8_p u did good girl. I lost my weight cuz I couldnt eat wat I want after I had my daughter. I was on the low carb diet or no food or drinks diet lol

    @darknesofnight4u did she had a reason to hate u. Lol shes rude & from wat ur telling me she is a bitch haha.

    @nameless u got 15 to go, u can do it :) I hate stepping on the scale. Cuz u dont knoe if its up or down n it messes with ur whole mood. Even if I lost 30 im still 210 & im still a big girl. U ladies look so tiny :)
