Weight Gain/Loss

How much weight did you gain during your pregnancy/pregnancies?
How much have you lost, or have you lost it all?
How long did it take you to lose it, or however much you've lost so far?
Was your weight loss contributed to breastfeeding, exercise, just being lucky or what?

Just trying to get an idea of on average how long it takes to lose your baby weight.

ETA: Just realized I should've posted this in WL&F. Oh well,  .

With my 1st i gained 40 lbs, lost 45 within the first week PP.... i was breastfeeding, but I attribute it to pure luck..
With my 2nd i gained 45 lbs, lost 35 within the first 2 weeks PP, but i've gained back 20.. and I've been breastfeeding for the past 10months...

I gained 21 lbs during my pregnancy.I lost it all plus 8 extra pounds and i'm almost 3 months PP. I do exclusively breastfeed but also I have high metabolism.

I gained 70lbs last time. I BF and exercised, but did not watch what I ate. I lost it all by 6 months pp. I lost most of it by 3 months pp, but I had some toning to do b4 I looked "normal" again.

Thanks ladies for your answers!

with my first, i gained 80 lbs and lost all but 25 pounds before getting pregnant again. with my second, ive gained 30 lbs and lost all of that with in a week. I did not BF.

35 I gained I lost it all 8 month pp now I have lost an extra 7 pounds since then

I gained 13lbs, breastfed for 2 months, only exercise I got during that time was up and down the stairs, and a few stroller walks  
I lost the 13lbs instantly, the day I went home from the hospital I was back to my pre-pregnancy weight, since the 13lbs was all baby/fluids, etc.
then I lost 2lbs/week after that,I wassubstituting my breakfast with a Slim fast, since I wasn't eating enough daily.I am currenly 12lbs lighter then I was before I got pregnant!

dont' worry about that, you are a small grl and u won't have trouble without working out, i know it haha. however i have to work out to lose these pounds. i'm old and my metabolism musta slowed down, i need to lose 10 more poudns yet. but don't worry about that now, eat all you want!

but to answer the question i gained 40 pounds, i have lost 30asap when he was born and i have 10 more to go, i didn't do anything to get rid of it, i breastfed for 2 weeks, but i don't attribute that to it...i just didn't do anything haha. i have some flub yet if you look at my post but i am getting it back, i just need toned and i will lose the 10 pounds asap.

I gained 26lbs with my son and lost it all by 3mths PP. I did strict portion control and counted out everything I ate.

Pre-pregnancy I weighed 155 the day I had my son I was 204, so I gained almost 50 pounds! 6 weeks pp, I was down to 180, but now 8 months pp I am down to 150. I breastfed for about 2 weeks then complications arosed and I stopped. I just take my tots for walks all the time and the weight came right off! my husband is deployed too, I hope everything is going ok (or the best it can be) for you!

I gained 35 lbs during my pregnancy. I lost 15 in the delivery room. - got down to 10lbs over my prepregnancy weight during the first month, after I quit BFing I gained 10 back. I've been stuck at 20lbs over my prepregnancy weight ever since.

i gained almost 30 lbs throughout my pregnancy, idk how much i've lost, but i'm only 1 week pp, and my stomach is already back to normal. i'm not breast feeding, either. so, i guess i'm just lucky.
