I am 40 and just had my second child (the oldest is 17). I did have difficulty conceiving and it took one round of IUI to get pregnant. We also did genetic testing because there is a risk of disorders; the risks grow exponentially every year after 40. Our daughter was born healthy. I did not have any issues with…

6 weeks postpartum and 6 pounds from pre-pregnancy weight (134) and 14 pounds from goal (126)

I eat a pack of sunflower seeds and drink two cups of water.

I am 5 weeks postpartum and 15 pounds from my goal weight (126). I am working to get down to my pre-pregnancy weight (134) by 6 weeks postpartum, but I'll miss the target.

Awesome!

Skip the ab work until at least 6 weeks...you undoubtedly have diastasis recti and it won't close /heal if you start doing ab work too soon

done :smile:

Children in Africa, North Korea, inner-city USA are "starving"....just sayin'

: ) ...I did 15

I log every morsel and weigh all my food. When I exercise, I estimate the burn for a 130 lb woman (so I don't overestimate my calories burned). I was just wondering if anyone else is not burning ANY calories from breastfeeding.

Keep it up - motivator!

10 minutes -- all out -- on the stationary bike

Good luck ladies....I find when I try to abstain it just leads to an ugly binge. "everything in moderation, even moderation"

I'm breastfeeding and not subtracting any calories for it. I wasn't really trying to eat below maintenance since a bout of mastitis…

I love walking for relaxation, QT w/ the family, etc. But (personally) I don't think it's that effective for cardiovascular health or calorie burn. I wore out my stationary bike during pregnancy. It was a great investment and gave me more "bang for the buck" than walking, i.e., I was able to burn more calories in the same…

I think we ALL deserve kudos for the mere fact of being on MFP while pregnant :laugh: [/quote] ^^^This

I gained 10 lbs at 16 weeks and was 14 lbs up at 20 weeks. After that things kind of tapered off, I ended up gaining 26 lbs total. I wouldn't freak out about it too much. You're doing great!
