How long will it take before I can fit into my old clothes? I had dd 1 month ago and only have 10 more pounds to lose but my button and zipper have a ways to go!!! I don't want to buy bigger clothes!!! Will my hips go back?
It took several months for me to fit into my clothes, even though I weighed less than before I got pregnant. I'm almost 7 months PP and most of my pants now fit.
With DD it took me several months to fit into my normal clothes even though by the time I left the hospital I was well under my pre-pregnancy weight, even after that some of my clothes still did not fit the way I wanted them to.
So hard to say, it's different for everyone. This time around I am 1 month PP and back into most of my prepregnancy clothes. BUT with DD1 it took almost 9 months and of had work to get there. And some stuff just never did look right again.
No offense but give me (and more importantly -- you) a break. Your 4w pp... You'll get there with time. Focus on your LO, it passes by quickly and you'll be back to your size in due time.

Im 9 weeks PP and weigh less than I did when I got pregnant and nothing fits. Maternity pants are too big, and regular clothes are too small! Yippee!! I dont know if its because I had a cs or not, but all my weight is right in front, in my belly, which wasnt there before I got pregnant. I just figure if I keep working out, it will eventually go away lol
I'm 5 weeks PP and I don't feel huge, but I can't fasten any of my pants either. I think most of my excess weight is still in my uterine region, which explains that. I recommend sundresses. They're more forgiving and more flattering, and I find them more comfortable than shorts too. I just invested in three nice nursing sundresses to supplement my mostly crappy remaining wardrobe and I think they'll probably get me through the summer.
