Hi Brittany, I'm in your shoes but this is my third child and I'm 40 (my baby will be 6 months next week). My first two are 9 & 6 so having another baby was quite a shock for me. I hadn't really lost the "baby weight" from the first two and with age and relatively sedentary life, I was going into PRE partum depression and have been not doing great at watching what I eat and exercising. But now I realize especially that I have a 9 year old, I only have so much time before it's all a fleeting memory and I don't want that memory to be of me being a lump on the couch WATCHING my kids play. I want to be that "play" mom. So MFP seems like something I can do especially after reading so many inspiring posts. I've never stuck to any diet plan in my life. Not thinking of this as a diet but a way of life. This will need to be the first day of the rest of my life for me. Good Luck!
