Weight loss after giving birth
posted 10th Jul
Just asking for those who had babies recently how much weight did you drop soon after having your baby. Recently meaning last few years or so to present time. Its been a while since I had my daughter so I dont remember.

With DS I dropped 20lbs in the first 4 days. I lost most of my baby weight I was going to loose with him in the first 6 months. Unfortunately for me the weight didn't STAY off...gonna work harder on that this time around!

I dont know from personal experience but my firend just had her baby 3 months ago and she said she lost a full 20 pounds by the time she left the hospital. Now she gained a good 70 pounds and still has about 40 to lose 3 almost 4 months PP.
And 2 years ago my Best Friend lost about 15 pounds before she left the hospital and with in 2 weeks lost the last 10. By her 3 week PP you couldnt tell she had even had a baby...LUCKY WHORE! lol.
And my Sister gained 85 pounds with my nephew and she lost between 15 and 20 before the left the hospital and with in 4 month ALL 85 piunds had come off.
Hope that helps!! My doctor told me to expect to lose about 15 by the time I leave the hospital...he said thats an avereage that he has seen in the past 15 years hes been delivering babies.
