I was two pounds shy of my pre baby weight 3 days after birth. But now I am at +5. I needed a little extra to feel good breast feeding...
I didn't gain much and had a 9 pound baby who loves to nurse...

I never weighed myself when I got home! I gained about 35 lbstotal , but lost it in 3 months. It still took a few more months to fit back into my pants though for whatever reason.

I gained 40 w ds1 and lost 20? Held onto the test for a while. But fit my pp clothes long before I lost all the wt.
I gained 33 w ds2 and weighed less to begin with, I lost 15? Right away. I'm 6 months pp and have 5 lbs to lose to pre ds2 weight. Clothes fit pretty much right away.
I hold onto weight while nursing. I had big babies (8+ lbs). So not a dramatic loss right away.

I was up 38 pounds by the time I gave birth and when I weighed myself a week later I was down 24 pounds! Crazy!
