    Congrats @kcd394 ! How are you feeling? Hope you and the baby are well!

    I gave birth to my first last year. I actually lost weight the first half of my pregnancy due to nausea but ended up gaining a lot of weight the last trimester. I ended up losing quite a bit of the weight (at least 20 lbs) during the 2nd and 3rd weeks postpartum. However, I gained about 10 lbs over the next 6 months as I healed and adjusted to life with a baby. Now, I'm finally able to exercise and start working towards my health and weight loss goals.

    Every body is different, so go easy on yourself during the first year or so postpartum - your body is still healing and adjusting. And if you find the newborn phase difficult, know that you're not alone and it's okay - for me, that phase was about surviving.
