I gained 50 lb with my first and lost 30 of it by my 6 week appointment. I was breastfeeding and had just started lightly working out at home.
With my first I gained 50 lbs after I lost 25lbs then the rest was fat. I didn't breastfeed, eat healthy or exercise so I never lost it. This one I gained 26 lbs I lost 20 lbs after having him 2 months ago I do breastfeed but I don't exercise and I don't eat that healthy but healthier than I did before. I can't seem to get rid of these last 6 lbs so we will see. But its worth it for my kids but I wish I had the will power to lose it
my twins are two weeks old and I already weigh less than my prepregnancy weight. I wouldn't say I ate healthy by any means, but not all junk. I only gained fourteen pounds and gave birth to fourteen and a half pounds of baby (not to mention weight of amniotic fluid and placenta). I didn't exercise while pregnant, but do have two toddlers I was constantly running after plus a busy work schedule. not exercising now, but I am breastfeeding.
I think another factor is that I was overweight to begin with
I gained 16 pounds with my daughter. I lost all of it the first month. I'm formula feeding.
I ate junk food a couple times a week while i was pregnant, but i also ate a salad and went on walks everyday.
For me it was easy to lose the weight. I started exercising 5 weeks after having my daughter.
