Just wondered how much weight everyone put on in pregnancy and how much of it you have lost already

I put on about 2 1/2 stone being pregnant. I gave birth on the 30th July and weighed myself a couple of days after that and had lost over a stone. By the time Haiden was about 2 weeks I had lost about 2 stone, but now I seem to be hovering about 1/2 a stone over my usual weight. I'm usually a size 10 and my tops are mostly fine, but even though I'm wearing my pre-pregnancy trousers they are a little tight! I'm not going out to buy some size 12's though as I don't intend to be in them for long!

I put on 2 1/2 stone too and was also a size 10. I haven't weighed myself yet though as i have left my scales in work. I'm dying too though. I think i've still got a stone to lose to get back to what i was pre preggers. I can't fit my size 10's on so have just been living in leggings and jeggings as at least they look like jeans and stretch-till i can get my ass back in my old ones.
As soon as i have had my 6 week check up, i'm hitting the Davina work out DVD while Olivia is sleeping. I've been pigging out on biscuits non stop.

I put on just under 3 stone, and have lost two so far which Im pleased about. I want to lose another two stone though as I was a bit over what I wanted to be before I fell pregnant.

Im going to start proper dieting on Tuesday as hubby goes back to work then and all the 'nice' food will be gone by then.

Think Im going to try weightwatchers as Ive done this before, Im going to see how I get on at home and if the weight isnt shifting Ill start going to the classes.

I gained a massive 4 1/2 stone, but I lost half a stone in the last couple of weeks of the pregnancy. The day I got out of hospital I had lost another stone and in the 10 days since then i've lost another one. So 2 1/2 gone and baby isnt even 2 weeks old so im not too worried!! Im breastfeeding so cant diet and havent been able to exercise yet so im sure i'll be able to shift it eventually. I had lost alot of weight before I got married last year so I have some size 16s left from before that that fit me now and hopefully i'll get back into my 14s soon!! I havent been a 12 since I was 15 lol.

wow girls - just wanted to say you're all doing really well considering you only gave birth a matter of weeks ago!!
I know I'm going to find losing weight difficult after baby is born as I was overweight anyway and really struggled with it - so I'll be joining back at weight watchers as soon as i can and throwing out all the crap in the cupboards (erm if I've not eaten it all before baby arrives!!).
Keep up the good work and I'll see you over here soon.

I put on about 2 stone when I was pregnant, Bertie is 3 weeks old and before I was pregnant I was 9'8 now I am 9'12. I can fit into most of my clothes, some of my size 12 trousers but i cannot get the zip together on my jeans. My hips must have widened or my bum is more padded, either way i have joined the nearby curves gym and as soon as I lose some weight I cant wait to go out clothes shopping. Now is a great time to up-date the wardrobe. I also put some of my maternity clothes on e-bay and I made ??60 today, I am putting my tops on next week - all counts towards my new clothing allowance

I put on 1st 11.5 lb and so far have lost 1st 5lb (Fraser is 19 days old). I can get in some of my pre preg jeans but they create a lovely muffin top out of my stomach so I'm sticking with stretchy stuff and early maternity stuff for now, although I did buy and wear a new sixe 10 dress to my sisters wedding yesterday so I'm please with that. I'm breast feeding so can't diet and I'm hungery and eating all the time but feeling quite hopeful that I'll have my old bod back before too long, with just 1 small stretch mark through my belly piercing (to prove I did actually carry Fraser).

hey everyone!
feels good to be posting in born in aug haha
you are all doing so good with the weight loss thing

i weighed 10 and a half stone before falling pregnant and was a size 12. in the first 4 months i lost 2 stone due to not eating well. i had cailey on 22nd of aug and now weigh 9 and a half stone and i reckon im a size 10 as my pre pregnancy jeans are too big! but ive lost all my shape..... mostly my bum which im not too happy about!

i so cant wait to go on a shoppin trip for me!! but no doubt i'll be buyin pink for my lil lady too!

I gained 3 stone in my pregnancy, 6 days after birth I had lost just over a stone and since then I have lost another 4lb I think but havent weighed myself for about a week. I want to lose more than the 3 stone I gained by christmas x

I honestly have no clue about my weight, as don't have scales!!

I was size 12 bottom and went up to size 14. I can fit into some of my more baggy size 12 trs, but they still feel uncomfortable - I think more because of my c-sec scar. i have no feeling in my bleey above the scar and below my belly button - so can't work out if my trs are hurting me cos they are tight!

Gotta wait until 6 weeks, then will start exercising!

Hello! I actually lost half a stone whilst I was pregnant (morning sickness for 24 weeks played a big part). Sophie is 9 days old now and I've lost another stone and a half bringing me to 2 stone lighter! Hurrah! Want to try to lose another 1.5 stone by Christmas as was overweight before I fell pregnant and want to make most of opportunity.
