All this weight

I weighed 105 lbs before I got pregnant and now I'm at 130 and I'm only 27 weeks. I'm just worried about losing the weight, my other family members really had a hard time losing it and some never did. Do genes really play and big part in it, or is it dependent on whether I get off my booty and terms I have the baby or not?

You have too remember too the baby will weigh a good 6 or 7 pounds. Your boobs weigh 2 lbs each and that only from the tissue! Your placenta is like another 3 or 4 lbs I believe. So try not to stress I started off at 127 now 158 lbs

It does, I breastfeed and I lost 35lbs in 11 weeks. BUt genetics does play a part. Look at your mom and sisters, see how they lost the weight its a decent indicator. That being said every woman is different, so its hard to know for sure :/ but breastfeeding burns around 500 calories a day so thats something, plus running around taking care of a baby. Its hard not to lose weight lol, you'll be fine

Are you planning on breastfeeding? I was 134 before pregnancy and I'm 172 now. Everyone tells me breastfeeding makes the weight fall off like butter so I'm not too worried ;) don't worry
