I lost 2 stone straight away, Kate was 9lb and the rest mustve been fluid and whatnot. I had put 4 stone on whilst pg and I was back to pre preg weight (but not shape unfortunately!) by the time she was 8 months old.

Am just reading the Pregnancy Bible and it says:

On average, giving birth results in a 5KG (12lb) weight loss, which sounds great, until you check your shape in the mirror to see huge breasts, a distended stomach and sagging skin!!!

and if uv had a c section then a flabby bit over your scar - I remember it so well lol

I lost nearly 9lbs straight off, but many people lose nothing at all expecially if they have overeaten (me in DS pregnancy )

the sagging stomach is the worst bit. I used to have a washboard stomach, but even though I'm now only half a stone heavier than pre-pregnancy, my tummy is really loose (if you know what I mean!).

But, my motivation is also seriously lacking. Need to shift the last few pounds in the next few months.
