Before getting pregnant again I was the same size and weight as before having Kate by about 4 months after I had her. Actually 8 months after having her I was 10 lbs less than before I had her, but I gained those back after I went off the dairy free diet. That said, I don't look the same. I could be more toned and my ribs expanded or something because all of my pre-Kate shirts were way too short (not because my boobs grew!).
I weigh less and wear a size smaller than I did before I got pregnant with my 1st. Then again, I've also spent the last 2yrs pregnant and throwing my guts up. My oldest also pitches a fit whenever I eat, so sitting down for a meal just doesn't happen. She's the best diet ever.
I always had wide hips and big boobs, so nothing really changed. I just wear a size smaller.
I'm 20 pounds lighter than I was pre-baby, I'm still the same size, though (damn hip bones don't shrink!). But then again, my baby is 4 so I've had time...
Mom to J (10), L (4), and baby #3 arriving in July of 2015
i was about the same right before i got pg again, but i don't usually weigh myslef. I go by how things fit and the fact that i could wear a bikini this summer and not offend anyone.
No way. I was pretty skinny pre-baby. And I think I lost a lot of my muscle. I am a lot flabbier now. I can fit into most of my clothes, except for some 0s and 1s, and my weight is not bad. But I am working on getting rid of the saggy baggy elephant look in my tummy and the droopy drawer of a butt.
I have had a battle with postpartum thyroiditis So, I lost the weight quickly in the beginning and then went up 15 lbs again. It pretty much sucked.
I have since figured out that I needed more exercise and less carbs to get my weight back down to normal, but I did not start wearing the same size pants again until she was a little over 2. I joined a gym for a year and now I walk as much as I can and get on the treadmill a couple times a week. I have NOT been as good about my diet recently, but I think I overall eat less than I used to.
But bikini? I might be a size 4/6, but this ugly, raisin-y looking stomach is NEVER seeing the light of day again! Not to mention my stomach muscles separated and never went back to normal no matter how many crunches I do, so I'm going for a tummy tuck after baby #2.
Re: Are you the same size/weight you were pre-baby
When I got pregnant this time, I was 4 lbs lighter than I was pre-pregnancy with DS. Hopefully after this one I can get back there again!

yup i'm about the same size as pre-pg with DD. of course i'm headed upwards again... i've put on a couple pounds already with baby #2.
2 pounds lighter right now. ?However, I was 12 pounds lighter, but gained weight over the summer. ??
?
I am actively trying to lose it though. ? I would like to get 15 - 20 pounds UNDER my pre baby weight before next summer. ??

I'm about 15 lbs less than my pre-baby weight. (nursing and WW got me back to pre-baby, running and WW got me under after I weaned)
I'd feel great about the drop in 2 sizes, if my boobs and belly weren't so saggy. (um, let's hear it for legs and ass!)
