New Preggo & plus-size!

  • Hi everyone! I posted an intro in the introduction board, but wanted to intro myself here as well. I am pregnant w/ baby #2 due in April. I have a 2 yr old son already. My weight has gone up and down my whole life and right before I got preg w/ #2, I had lost all my baby weight plus 25 lbs (was still overweight, though). I've since put back on the extra 25lbs I had lost and am slightly over my pre preggo weight when I was preg with my son.
    I gained 55lbs with my son and weighed close to 300lbs (275) a few days before he was born. I'm hoping to lose all the baby weight I gain plus some and I think it'll be great to have a good support system. I plan on breastfeeding for awhile, so that may help a little bit.
    I look forward to getting to know some of the mommies and mommies to be in here!
  • Congrats! I know how you feel with the weight loss, I had just lost all my baby weight from my first son and was working on the extra from my daughter when I got pregnant again. So I am starting over, but it is so worth it.
  • Congratulations! Very best of luck to you!!
  • Welcome & congratulations!!
