Post partum check up

I just had my 4 week follow up and my doc said I've healed like a champion. My c section scar is already fading (thank God!). I haven't lost as much weight as I was hoping for, but my doctor reminded me that it took 9 months to put on so I should expect to work about 9 months to get it off. DH is very excited because the doc cleared me for all activity. I'm excited because it means I can actually go workout and have a little me time at the gym. The doc did prescribe a little zoloft for me because I've been feeling a little down/isolated/etc. I was one of those people that felt amazing the whole time I was pregnant and have not adjusted very well to not have such a hormone high. Hopefully this will help me feel a little bit better, but my doc did give me a plan in case it doesn't. I can't believe it's already been more than a month since Q arrived!

    Glad to hear! I can't wait to be able to exercise again. The best part of having a spring baby. We're going to be going on lots and lots of walks!!!

    This is a personal question, but I am worried about the weight loss for myself because I'm in a wedding shortly after the baby arrives. How much have you lost since you had the baby?

    I gained 26 and have lost 12. I was hoping to have lost at least 16 but no such luck! I think it's going to take exercise for me to get the rest off.

    may i ask a personal question?  are you nursing while being on zoloft?  i'm asking because i'm nursing and wondering about going on an anti anxiety med as well but not sure about doing it while nursing....

    good for you for getting an extra boost!!!  good luck!
