    I am still trying. Mine is almost 2 years old. As soon as I stopped breast feeding the weight came back.

    Yep, I had a baby in June of 2013 and I'm 60lbs heavier then I was then. I dropped 60lbs using MFP in 2012 then gained over 80lbs with the pregnancy. Sooooo, that being said, I'm still trying to get my body back. I need to get my butt in gear and lose this weight. I hate feeling this way :( I can relate to the frustrations. I actually gained weight breast feeding, partly b/c I craved carbs, lack of sleep and running around after a toddler and a newborn with intestine issues made it tough. But now I'm getting back to doing this for myself. Feel free to add me, I love watching peoples journeys. Anyone can add me, the community support was key for me. I try and be as positive and supportive as I can.

    I had a baby almost 5 months ago and just stopped breastfeeding. I was one of the lucky ones who did not lose weight while breastfeeding :grumble: so now I've got my work cut out for me. Feel free to add me!

    I have a 19th month old, not really a baby any more but I still have "baby weight" to lose. I gained about 70 lbs from the time we started trying to have another baby to the time that my youngest son was born. We lost 3 babies between our oldest son and my youngest and I have huge issues with emotional eating, hence the 70 lbs. I lost 45 within the first 9 months then was stuck for about 8 months. Started on here 2 months ago and am down 20 lbs so far.

    my third baby is a year old and my fourth is 8 weeks old, I'm not trying to lose weight I'm actually trying to gain some back. I'm logging and relearning how to eat after being pregnant for two years pretty much. I have severe hyperemesis when pregnant and was on a feeding tube, picc line, and my kidneys began to fail me.....so my concentration is learning what hungry feels like, train my body to not be sick when I eat, oh and tone tone tone. I started lifting again to get strong like I used to be. All that time in bed does a number on ya....

    The baby with whom I gained the weight is starting preschool in a month.... baby number 2 (with whom I gained nothing), is almost 3.... put on 35 pounds with #1, so looking to shave at least that much off by November.

    I am...my baby girl just turned one July 31st and my son will be turning 7 in September. Unfortunately, never lost the weight from him either. On the track to getting healthy and losing the weight in the process...so I can be around a long time for my kiddos and keep up with them!

    Haha, yeah I would certainly have them take a second... or third look. My sister is pregnant and they told her it was a girl at first, so I planned her entire baby shower around a pink theme, bought a ton of dresses, and sewed a few myself... and then at 20 weeks they told her it was a boy. Go figure. I hope you don't have any surprises tomorrow. :) Feel free to add me for when you start trying to lose your baby weight. I'm sure I'll still be working on mine for a year or more.

    Hi there...am new to this. And been reading some posts. I had my second baby 8 months ago and he was 10lb. I gained 25kgs in pregnancy. I lost 6kgs giving birth then over the past 7 months Ive lost a further 5 or so kgs. My weight seems to fluctuate a bit from 68-70kgs which is frustrating as I have been exercising since he was 5 weeks old. Ive been walking at least 2-4 times a week about 3-4kms eating pretty well..Im not one to induldge into cakes,chocs,icecream or fizzy just coffee with 1 sugar a cuppa tea at night. I have tried FIIT which totally kicked my butt but now I am walking/running with the pram. 2 weeks of doing that and Ive gained weight!! Im working pretty hard at it and getting nowhere fast seems to gain it back faster than loosing for no reason. I am still kind of breastfeeding on 1 side only and perhaps maybe twice a day...he mainly has food or bottle now. I am not one to loose weight breastfeeding as some women do. Any tips or advise will be appreciated. I am pretty tired and will keep at it if I see results but when nothing changes its pretty depressing especially when you see other mums or famous women on tv who have got body back after what seems like weeks! I go back to work in October and I wont be able to fit any of my clothes, cant be wearing trackpants and maternity jeans to work :(

    My baby is 14 months old and I stopped breastfeeding 3 months ago. Since then I have gained around 15 pounds... HELP! I used MFP before the pregnancy and lost about 10 pounds, so I know I can do it, but it's so hard after having a baby. I work full-time in a stressful job and never have any time for myself to exercise. Feel free to send any tips and tricks (or kick-butt motivations) my way.

    i have 4 lots of baby weight to loos LOL

    when preg with my first i gaint 3 and half stone, after having him i lost 1 and half stone before getting preg with my second, i then gained 3st during that pregnancy. (there is 13months between the boys born jan 08 and feb 09)

    i then tryied and failed to shift it but then got preg again in 2011 i didnt gain any weight but seeing as i was 17st to start with this time thats a good thing, after having my 3rd son i got down to 15st 7lbs. then i got pregnant with my daughter (again there is 13month between the youngest 2) i only gain 4kg during that preg and after i had her i was down to 15st 4lbs. breast feed did not help me loos weight but i didnt gain either.

    so she is now almost 15months old and im this fat thing, would love to get back to my pre preg weight
