Mom of 3 here with the youngest being 5 months. I'm trying to get rid of my last 5lbs and they don't want to budge! Any other moms in this boat? I'd love to be friends so we can encourage each other

    Lol! I think y'all are good. If you only have 5 lbs to go you've pretty much met your goal. I have 3 little peopleas well. I'm shoooting for 10-15 lbs more....I'm lifting and hopefully toning.

    That's me too! Baby #3 is 8 months. I am about 5-8lbs from goal. However, I stopped looking at the scale. I am more focused on how I want to look. After 3 csections my core needs toning big time. With such a small amount to lose its going to take a while. Plus, I'm breastfeeding so I don't want to cut calories too much.

    Are you breastfeeding? I find my body holds onto a bit of weight until I stop.

    My baby is 4 months and I have 7 lbs left to lose to get to pre pregnancy. It seems to be coming off alright but I was overweight to begin with so I have a ways to go! Breastfeeding is both helping and hurting because I can't lose too quickly!

    Breastfeeding always makes me hold onto eight pounds. I also find it hard to really hit it hard (deficit wise) because I'm so paranoid that my supply will drop. (You didn't say whether or not you're nursing, but in case you are.) However, I second what others have said- being five pounds away from your goal weight at five months postpartum is great! I'm proud of you!

    I'm three months postpartum and just started losing the weight.
