I'm only 5 feet tall so this was a lot of extra weight. I think I just have good genes because my baby is 11 weeks and I'm back to my pre-pregnancy weight and my hips have not permanently expanded...I can fit into my old jeans, but can't really wear them comfortably because of my c-section scar...also my skin is still pretty loose... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/be-honest-do-you-hips-ever-go-back#post-60000 Thu, 26 Jan 2012 00:09:05 +0000 cyndistar3 60000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was at less than my original weight for over a year after having baby but it didn't make a difference. I have since gained weight but I still don't tgink my hips have changed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/be-honest-do-you-hips-ever-go-back#post-59993 Thu, 26 Jan 2012 00:00:17 +0000 venice4504 59993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sorry to ask but is it because you are still carrying weight or is everyone less or same as pre-pregnancy? I'm at my old weight but those hip bones aren't helping!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/be-honest-do-you-hips-ever-go-back#post-59710 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:11:50 +0000 cyndistar3 59710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am pretty sure my hips will never be the same. As sad as it is, when I was pregnant the first time I was able to fit my pants all up until I gave birth and then they didn't fit.... Three years later and they still don't :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/be-honest-do-you-hips-ever-go-back#post-59707 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:10:39 +0000 heffalump 59707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmmm... I don't know. My LO is 6 months but I think my belly is the reason I don't fit into my old pants, not my hips. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/be-honest-do-you-hips-ever-go-back#post-59700 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:08:57 +0000 chopsuey 59700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like my hips are more narrow now. I can slip my pre-baby pants off without unbuttoning/unzipping!<br /> I think it's partly because my BUTT has gotten FLATTER. It's sad. :(<br /> It took about 9 months for me to get something that looks like my old body back.<br /> Still have some more to lose though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/be-honest-do-you-hips-ever-go-back#post-59687 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:06:38 +0000 venice4504 59687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 4 months PP and my hips still haven't gone back to where they were before I was pregnant! I have a closet full of (expensive) pants that I really want to wear. Did your hips finally go back to where they were and how long did it take? </p>
