    It happened to me! Weight loss definitely picked up around 5/6 months pp.

    I had to do WW to get rid of my extra weight when my weight loss stalled (at around 3 months pp). After I quit nursing for good I lost another ridiculous amount, like 6 lbs (I'm 5'3, that's a lot of weight for short little me). it was awesome, I was like, "Look at meeeeeee, I'm so skinn-nay!!"

    And then I got pregnant and gained it all back. Whomp whomp.

    I was a rail by 6 months pp, really noticed the weight loss at 4 months pp. At 6 months, I could pull my pre-maternity jeans on and off without unbuttoning or unzippering (is that a word?). Probably the skinniest I've ever been. But once I weaned, I put some weight back on.

    It happened to me too! I could fit into most of my pre-pregnancy clothes by the time I went back to work at 12 weeks pp, and was back to my pre-pregnancy weight by 4 months pp.

    @grizz: I also wanted to add that where someone starts out really makes a difference too . . . *getting back to pre-pg weight* is not a universal translation, if that makes sense.
