Weight Question
Hey girls!! I was just wondering.. how long did it take for you to get somewhat back to normal after giving birth to your multiples??
I gained 80lbs during my pregnancy and made it to 36 1/2 weeks. Its only been 3 weeks and I have lost 50 lbs but physically I feel GROSS.
I am happy and can be to be home with my girls but I cant wait to be able to start working out again so that I can get back into some kind of shape that doesnt consist of blob. The docs told me to hold off still because of my c-section.
I guess I was just wondering how long it too k everyone to get back to, or close to their pre-pregnancy weight and shape.
TIA!!

Re: Weight Question
I gained a total of 41 pounds- my girls were born June 18 2010, so almost exactly one year ago. I'm 5/8 pounds away from my pre-preg weight. It takes time and lots of exercise. Although Im close to my pre prego weight, honestly, my body isnt the same and Im not in the same size. I'm ok with it all- Im healthy and have happy babies- 
Dont worry, it takes time, I really didnt start to feel myself until 6/7 month mark.

Re: Weight Question
I started to feel better around the 3-4 month mark. At 5 months I still have "fat" days where I feel gross. I still have about 5 or 6 lbs to go. If I exercised more I think I would feel better about myself. My abs are very weak and by then end of the day my stomach can be pretty bloated.
Hang in there you will get there! You had twins!! It does a number on your body

Re: Weight Question
I gained 75 lbs. I lost all but 10 lbs within the first few weeks. Took me 6 months to get back to pre-preg weight.

Re: Weight Question
I only gained 25 pounds during my pregnancy. I lost most of it right away, but still looked pregnant for months. My stomach is still pretty gross, even though I weigh less than I did before I got pregnant. My kids are perfect and healthy so I'm fine w/ my body! You'll get there...it just takes awhile!

Re: Weight Question
I gained 45 lbs and lost 30 in a few days and now I still have 10 lbs lingering. My hips are wider and I feel the same way. When will my body go back? People comment that I look great but I don't feel like I do. I might go on ww but I'm still nursing. my girls are happy and healthy and weighed exactly 8 lbs at 1 month so I'm very happy about that!
