    I'm right there with you! My youngest 2 are twins that I had 3 years ago, and I still look pregnant if I don't make a conscious effort to suck it in ALL the time!

    In Ye Olden Days, we didn't pack on 100 lbs so it wasn't so hard to lose the baby weight.

    Hi

    I had my little one on 1st January 2015 and now trying to shift my baby weight. I'm worried that cause this is my 2nd baby that it's going to be a lot harder to shift this time and that I'll lose motivation. I was going to join weight watchers or slimming world classes to get me motivated, but I figured I'd try here first.

    I'm a mum of 3 and still trying to lose those last few pounds. My kids are 5, 3 and 9 months. I lost all the weight after my first, got pregnant again, lost it all and more, then got pregnant again lol.

    I exercised through my first and third pregnancies, and logged on MFP all through my third, eating at a deficit too, yet still I gained.

    I've never had a c-section luckily, didn't even have stitches. #childbearinghips

    I've been back at the gym since my baby was 6.5 weeks old, but the weight is taking its time to go.

    5 kids here ranging from 13 years to 4 months. 3 by c-section. Although I'm slowly losing weight the pooch seems like it may never go away. Happy to have anyone as a friend.

    Yeah, just had my first 6 months ago, and gained 50 lbs! Already lost my baby weight, thanks to dieting and breastfeeding, but still have 42 lbs to go to reach goal weight. Yeah, worried my pooch will not go down. Been trying to find an exercise regimen to tone it away. Any suggestions?

    A c-sec pooch, or just normal post baby one? Just exercise in general should help. I lost loads after my 2nd baby and my stomach really went down. I find doing a mix of cardio and strength training really helps me, and keeping it varied.
