Cpw: post-partum size

arlingirl · February 2014

What size are you post baby.

We've probably already had this poll, but I'm curious!!

bumpuser794640 · February 2014

I'm not PP, so there's that. I am a size or two larger than I was pre grad school, though!

arlingirl · February 2014

I'm back in my pre-pregnancy "fat pants" which are a size larger than what I typically wear.

I've gotten into one pair of black work pants that were way big pre-pregnancy and now "fit", but snug. I ordered one pair of gap pants a size up, but haven't tried them on yet.

I put my size 12's on the other day and they're a few pounds away from buttoning. [-O< I still have 8 lbs of baby to lose and 8 lbs of honeymoon I gained right after we got married. Sigh. Feels like I'll never get there.

I like food. Speaking of, lunch time!!!!

I am a size larger but sadly I have kept a size every baby.

It's terrible, but part of the reason I've told DH I don't know about a second baby. We put our bodies through soooo much. It's nuts.

I'm down a few sizes from pp. Breastfeeding worked in my favor and I know I'm lucky for that. Been dairy free now for 4 weeks and that is helping too. I've always been overweight and I still am but now I'm a bit closer to my ideal weight

martyn17 · February 2014

I fit into my prepregnancy clothes, but they don't look terrific. I need to lose a little more weight and tone my tummy.

I'm back in pre-pregnancy clothes and 1 pound away from my old weight. Its hard for me to believe because I look nothing like I used to. Different shape body and no much muscle tone. Damn diastsis recti!

sdtchica13 · February 2014

I'm in most of my pre-preg pants, but have a few pairs from pre-Corri that still don't fit me, so the goal is to get back into those. Shirts are actually more problematic, because my currently giant tits raise the he of every shirt 2 inches, which makes half of them too short to fit properly, lol!

Maternity pants. I was a 12ish. Now im 14-16. I refuse to buy bigger clothes. Refuse! Maternity and yoga pants for lyfe!

Bmore721 · February 2014

I am a size larger, but closer to my ideal weight now than I was pre-pregnancy. I was underweight when I got pregnant.

lrichmond86 · February 2014

I should edit to say "back in maternity pants". Before getting pregnant again I had lost a bunch of weight and was the size I was when dh and I got married. Oh well. Start from scratch in six months or so.

cuterusaurus · February 2014

So I fit in my pre pregnancy clothes but I think maternity pants are the most comfortable things on earth now (felt differently during pregnancy).

Lelo2006 · February 2014

Smaller because I had hyperthyroidism. I am definitely way more active though, and I eat a lot less than I did pre-pregnancy (I don't have time).

WanderingA · February 2014

I fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes but my body shape has definitely changed. My belly is a little rounder and definitely softer and my boobs are still up a cup size (we'll see what happens post-BFing). I don't weigh myself but if I were to guess I think I am probably 10-12 lbs. heavier than I was PP.

merc5411 · February 2014

I weigh less than before pregnancy, but I was heavier than I wanted at that time. I'm back to my "wedding" weight, but I still want to lose 20 lbs.

MRads · February 2014

Below pre pregnancy weight and my thighs are smaller but I have a pooch at my stomach, which I've never had before. So I weigh less but I'm less satisfied with the shape I'm in. But not enough so that I've found the will power to actually go for a run.

jennipalmer · February 2014

@arlingirl it is hard everything we go through but worth it...plus I have plastic surgery fund for when I am done having babies

Mommy1stTimer · February 2014

A little smaller, but this little tummy pooch can bite me.

fieldpetal · February 2014

I'm back in my pre-pregnancy shoes....

karen0477 · February 2014

I'm a size up, but just about in pre-preg pants....my stomach is terrible though.....so disgruntled with that!!!

Mrs JillB · February 2014

I put I'm back in pp clothes, but I'm really a different size/shape than I used to be. Also, I'm nursing twins right now and I'm able to just shove food down my throat and not gain any weight. It doesn't bode well when I wean......

geoffandjen728 · February 2014

In some areas I'm technically back to prepregnancy size, 3lbs lighter, but yet nothing fits(too small or too big and often sometimes both!) I literally don't know how to wear clothes anymore and I refuse to go shopping.

mandmh05 · February 2014

After my first pregnancy, I went up a size bc I realized that even before I got pregnant, I was cramming myself into pants that didn't really fit me. So now I'm back in the size that really fits me. They hide my mommy pooch belly and muffin tops better.

Dtams13 · February 2014

My prepregnancy clothes fit but they don't fit the same. I need to get back into working out but don't have any time right now.

valstulas · February 2014

Back in my pre-preg clothes, but working hard to get to a smaller size. At least I'm working hard when I'm not having wine

ljs4117 · February 2014

I was still up 15 pounds when I got KU at ~10 wks postpartum.. And before getting pregnant with DD1 I was up 10-20 lbs from where I wanted to be. Boo. Needless to say I am in maternity pants now at 23w.

probably will be in them until at least the end of the year.

fabk · February 2014

Below the c/s scar aka the equator I am down 2+ pant sizes depending on the make.
Above the equator I can't find tops to fit me. Not only am I still bfing so my boobs have their own postal code but my stomach is still flubby.
Its crazy I am a size 6-8 below and xxl on top.

PrimRoseMama · February 2014

I still wear some maternity pants but a size or two up depending on brand.

rooter84 · February 2014

I am back in pre pregnancy clothing. However it fits different now.

JTA2426 · February 2014

I'm about 2 ish sizes below where I was prepregnancy- about 10-15 lbs down. I won't say I look good, my belly is all flabby skin and weirdness, and breastfeeding has removed every bit of my butt. All gone.
