Weaning = weight gain :-(

Boo! Over the last two weeks when I have only nursed DD once a day, I have gained 5 pounds! Gah! Before this, I was less than a pound from pre-pg weight, too. Apparently I didn't realize just how much I was able to eat whatever I wanted while BFing... Who knew eating dessert every night would come back to haunt me....? Ha!
Brought to you by IVF, ICSI, limited fert, and oocyte cryopreservation.
Because we're fancy like that.

Re: Weaning = weight gain :-(
Same here. While bfing, I weighed the least I have weighed since high school. I've gained 7 pounds since weaning, about 4 weeks ago, although that also coincided with me starting Estrace (and Christmas), so I'm not exactly sure to what I can attribute the gain. I blame it on weaning, lol.
me too.
Turns out I don't have a magical ability to eat ice cream and candy and not gain weight. Humph.

Same thing happened to me. I had a friend at work tell me the whole time I was bf'ing to just wait because the weight gain would happen. I didn't listen to her and I paid the price!
It goes on so fast....and comes off so slow. Argggh!
