Does water weight go away after giving birth?

    Yes. I gained 47 lbs with my daughter. I started getting really swollen around 17 weeks...I had blood pressure issues, so I think I had a lot of extra water weight. I lost all 47 lbs in one month; however, I did breastfeed, so I'm sure it helped the weight come off. I would sweat so much...especially at night... that I would saturate my bed and pillows. I peed a ton too.

  • My dr told me to expect most of the swelling to go away a few wks after the baby is born. I am so looking forward to my shoes fitting again.
