    Up 8kg this pregnancy, started at 60kg and 68kg and 6kg of that has been in the last 8 weeks!

    With DD I went from 64-76kg and was 68 post birth But I delivered at 33 weeks so no idea what I would have hit had I gone to FT....... Wow almost the same as you BF When DD was 12 months I had dropped to 58kg and felt too thin and took me months to get back up to 60kg where I felt comfortable

    9kg, but that fell of really quicky, plus an additional 5kg too! But I put on about 30kg in the pretty kankles I got just after DD was born, but that was gone before I left the hospital too :P

    I put on a whopping 30kgs during my pregnancy (I ate like an idiot, though). Probably 80% of the weight I gained during my middle trimester.

    I lost 10kgs in the first week after the birth, though - just bub, fluid etc. The rest I have had to diet off and still have another 10kgs to go.

    Your weight gain sounds normal to me and just remember that you can gain a heap of fluid in the last couple of weeks - which you will lose very quickly after bub arrives.

    I put on 18kg - was 55.4kg when I found out I was pregnant at 4 weeks and then weighed in at 73.4kg the day I had bubby.
    I lost 13kg of that during the birth and the few days after it and have 5kg to go - that last 5kg must have been all of the Magnum Egos I ate

    Thanks Loula Theyre doing amazing Crawling and on solids and just basically getting into everything.

    With DS I went mental with that whole 'eating for two' thing but with the girls I ate when I was hungry and didnt cut out any foods really and just listened to my body. Such a difference as you can tell
