    Sarah - Some women (like myself) are lucky and brestfeeding = weight loss. I put on 20kg with #1 and by the time I conceived #2 at 5.5 months post birth I had lost 18kg (54kg) with #2 I didn`t put on as much weight (11kg) I put that down to still breastfeeding #1 until I was 37 weeks pregnant and only stopping then as Matthew decided to self wean one day . I`m now down to 52kg and have been for some months, which is well underweight for my height but it`s because I`m breastfeeding (I eat like a horse and don`t exercise), although I have never been a solid person.
