mom's who did Weight Watchers after having baby
How long after giving birth did you wait before you joined? Also, if you were breastfeeding while on the program, was it any harder or different to stick with it? I was a WW member before becoming pregnant and now 3 weeks after having my  I am eager to join again! Thank you!!!

Re: mom's who did Weight Watchers after having baby
I rejoined by 4weeks pp (?), I think?! It wasn't too long. But I'm not breastfeeding, either...don't know if that matters. Actually, I believe that WW gives u an extra 10 points a day if your breastfeeding....so definitely look into that!!
GL!

Oh that is so good to hear!! I was thinking about going next Monday to sign up (4 weeks pp). I can't wait to finally be in control of my body again!!!  How has it been working for you? And for 10 extra points - if I WASN'T ALREADY BREASTFEEDING I SURE AS HECK WOULD START!!!

Has it helped you lose the baby weight? I remember reading your birth story where you were already in your skinny-Minnie jeans by the time you left the hospital... SO WHAT ARE YOU DOING WW FOR MISSY????

Re: mom's who did Weight Watchers after having baby
6 years later - after being miserable with my weight. Don't wait that long.
No one should be unhappy with themselves for that long - ever.

I waited 8 months, should have joined sooner. I am actually in my first week of WW and it says you get 12 extra points for BF.

Re: mom's who did Weight Watchers after having baby
I was doing WW before I got pregnant. I'm due in Sept and plan to breastfeed and want to start WW up again too.
I have all the books and it was just my friends and I doing it at work but I couldn't remember how many extra points you get for breastfeeding but now I know it is 10! Great.
Good luck. I think WW is the way to go, I lost 25 lbs before my wedding and have pretty much kept it off, my friend after having 4 boys started with me this past sept and she has lost 25 lbs and still loosing!!!

Re: mom's who did Weight Watchers after having baby
well I waited about 4 weeks as I had a cs. I gained a whopping 65 pounds with my pregnancy nd couldn't wait to start, although have yet to begin exercising. I immediately lost about 30 after giving birth. I've been on ww for about 8 weeks and have lost another 15. I'd like to lose about 30 more......its tough but I really miss my old body and wil lwork as hard as it takes to get it back
