How much weight do you lose each month after labour ? I had normal labour and I lost 22 lbs in the first month. I put on 42 lbs during my pregnancy.
I can't wait to get back into my jeans

It all depends on the individual, metabolism rate, what you eat in a day, etc.

With that said, with my first I gained 45 lbs. and lost 33 within 3 weeks after delivery. The rest came off very quickly and I was back into pre-pregnancy clothes within a month and a half.

With my second, I gained the same weight but the weight came off a bit more slowly but was back into pre-pregnancy clothes within 2 1/2 months.

I've just given birth 3 weeks ago to my third. I gained 50 lbs. and have lost 26 lbs. so far. I've a feeling it may take me a bit longer to get back to pre-pregnancy size but we shall see.

i have had my first baby 7 weeks ago this sunday

in the first two weeks i lost about 2stone 3pds (i think - not quite sure of my pregnancy weight exactly). after that i lost another few pounds and i seem to have lost NONE in the past 2/3 weeks. i am rather worried about it to be honest with you! i am eating healthy foods and exercising so don't understand what has happened.

i was about a stone and a half over weight prior to falling pregnant so have another 3.5stone to lose. god i have a challenge in front of me.
joining weight watchers next week!

good luck to you hun!
