How long did it take you to lose the baby weight?

I had my daughter on 9/22..I gained about 40-45 pounds in total...I have lost 33 and have about 10 left to go...just wondering how long it took everyone to lose the weight? Also I had a Csection, can it take longer to lose the weight b/c of that?

Re: How long did it take you to lose the baby weight?

Within 3 months I was back down to my pre-pre pregnancy weight Chat Icon But about 6 months before I got pregnant I lost A LOT of weight, about 15-20lbs, and I still have that to take off. Will probaly take another 4 months or so.

Re: How long did it take you to lose the baby weight?

I gained about 45 pounds while pregnant, and at 7 weeks post partum have only lost 25. It's annoying since most of that came off right away and I haven't really lost anything else.

I've also gained about 30ish pounds since DH and I got engaged, so I want to take that off too. I have a loong way to go, I think. Chat Icon

Um, I still have to lose about 60 lbs from when I got pregnant the 1st time (compared to what I weighed when I got married)....but now I'm pregnant again...so I'm not worrying about it now.

Re: How long did it take you to lose the baby weight?

about 2 months- i gained 45 lbs with my twins also had a C sesion. by 4 months i was thinner than before ( but not in shape!- just thin- which i didnt think would bother me but it does!!!)

i also lost weight before i got pg- about 5 lbs and for me that is a noticable amt.

Re: How long did it take you to lose the baby weight?

Well one year later I'm 6 pounds LESS then I was before I got pregnant. I think I lost all the weight by 6 months but most of it just came off right away (I gained 28 pounds). Oh and I didn't do anything special to lose it, just don't have time to eat as much Chat Icon

Re: How long did it take you to lose the baby weight?

I'm 4 weeks past my c/s and have lost all 40 pounds I put on. I definitely need to tone up, but I'm back down to my pre-preg weight.

I was VERY swollen, though, so a LOT of that weight was water weight.

Re: How long did it take you to lose the baby weight?

I have heard that if you are EBF then you will loose the weight faster. I lost all of my PP weight with my 1st DS within a couple of months.

Re: How long did it take you to lose the baby weight?

About 10 months.

I lost 22 of the 29 within 2 months. Then I was just waiting for the rest to come off and it didn't so I started working out and watching carbs. By her 1 year birthday I was 10 lbs below PP weight. Oh and I still have a slight shelf above the incision scar.

Give yourself time. It took 9 months to put it on, it'll take that long to get it off.

Re: How long did it take you to lose the baby weight?

I gained 45 lbs and also had a c-section. I lost it all by 8 weeks PP. I gained a lot of water weight due to severe swelling. I also EBF, which helped me lose weight quickly.

About 16 months but it was my own fault for not really making an effort to go to the gym and eat better earlier.

Re: How long did it take you to lose the baby weight?

I am still 20 lbs heavier than I was before I had my first baby(almost 5 years ago). I never lost the weight from my first pregnancy. For baby#2 and #3 I lost the weight by 3-4 months PP.

I had 3 babies (4 pregnancies) in 2 years 9 months to the day so I blame it on thatChat Icon
