Restarting after 3rd baby, need friends!

I am 5.5 months post partum with my 3rd baby, I am breast feeding and supplementing with formula. Prior to this pregnancy I lost 40 lbs and now I'm looking to get back into CICO again. I tried to get back on track at 3 months post partum but it was too overwhelming with a new baby and trying to deal with my older two children as well (3 and 5 yos). My oldest is going into kindergarten and my middle child is going into preschool so I'm going to try and get back on track with the new "free time" I'll have with just one kid during the day rather than 3.
I am 34, and a SAHM. Baby will start solids soon and I plan to wean soon thereafter. Would love to have new friends added as most of my friends from my first weight loss attempt are no longer active.

    I'll add you! I'm pregnant right now, but soon I'll be needing to go in the other direction.

    This is exactly the same as me, I'm 34 and 6 month pp with baby number three. Lost 45lbs pre pregnancy, now have 30 to go. Add me! Workouts inwhen I get the chance, focussing on not bingeing! I got on track quickly at the start and then totally blew it over the summer with three of them to juggle!

    I'm 31 years old and am 32 weeks pregnant with baby number 3 (pregnancy #4 as I miscarried last december). I am having a harder time with being active this time around. I ran all the way through my first 2 pregnancies and this time I just dont have it in me. (Because of Age? Added children? Work?) I could use some fitness pal friends to encourage me in post partum fitness recovery!

    Oh this is so me too! I lost 50lbs last year then got pregnant with my daughter and gained it all back. I’m 6 months PP and lost 30lbs so far. I’m exclusively breastfeeding and slowly introducing solids which she hates! Feel free to add me!

    Me too! I'm almost a month post partum with my third baby. I lost about 20 lb before getting pregnant (though not quite to my pre baby weight). Gained... Umm... Way too much weight this time around. I'm ready to get rid of this extra fluff already!! Looking for friends in similar situations to support each other.

    I'm back after baby number 3. I had a series of complications becoming pregnant again between baby 2 and 3, which allowed me to gain a significant amount of weight. I'm now back on the bandwagon of trying to get the baby weight off plus lose additional weight. I'm having trouble staying motivated and the weight just won't budge while I am nursing. At 8 months postpartum I haven't made much progress.
