Re: How much weight did you lose during labor?

I gained 50 lbs. I weighed myself 2 days later and was only down 8 lbs (prettty much her weight) but I was very very swollen still. At my 6 week visit I was down 25 lbs....still have 25 lbs to go

Re: How much weight did you lose during labor?

I gained 40 total, lost right away 15 I think then within a few weeks lost 15 more and wanted to keep 10 so that's where I'm at. I think breastfeeding made me lose most of it because I did not one ounce of exercise. That along with having no time to eat!

Re: How much weight did you lose during labor?

I weighed myself the day I got home from the hospital (two days after he was born) and I lost nothing! Didn't see how that was possible but I guess I was retaining a lot of fluid.

Re: How much weight did you lose during labor?

I gained about 48 pounds. Luca was 7lbs11oz.
I weighed myself about a week after and I had lost about 12 pounds. At my 6 week pp visit I was down 29 pounds. It's now 14 weeks pp and I've lost another 7. So I still have about 12 to get to pre-preggo weight.

Re: How much weight did you lose during labor?

Have no clue eaactly but within the first week I was close to 10lbs from my prepreggo weight. ihad gained 30-35lbs in total. I know people who came home weighing more than they were preggo - I guess retaining water - so eveyrone is different and you never know how you will react.
