Shocked

i feel really great right now.

let me explain, lol.

first of all, it's sooo nice out. the windows are open, the breeze is blowing, i am in a really good mood, the 2nd night home with .gabe was a lot easier than the first, & he's sleeping next to me on the couch right now.. so freaking cute.

&!!!!

at my last prenatal appointment, 3 days before i had .gabe, i weighed almost 193lbs.. the day after i had him, i was 184lbs.. 8lbs right away! saturday i weighed myself, & i was 172lbs!!!! 12lbs in 5 days! & .then.. last night.. i weighed myself again, & i was 168lbs! holy !**@!! i'm already down like 25lbs & i just delivered 8 days ago!

That's effin awesome girl!!!!!!!

It's been a year and I'm still 161....sucks....

I'm normally 145/150...it's the skin on my stomach that's causing the extra weight.

I refuse to fix myself completely. WHat's the point when I'm just gonna get pregnant again?

KIss .gabriel for meeee!!

you need to post more pictures!!!

yay on the weight loss! i'm a little stuck with mine, finn's almost 5 months old and i've lost about 43 but i'm still about 28 above my pre-preg weight. that's what happens when you gain 70 freakin' pounds! i don't count the first 25 lost though because it just fell off once finn was born (baby+placenta+fluids= 20-25 pounds).

drinks *tons* of water to flush the fluids out and you may drop even more!

pictures! pictures! pictures!

Wow, your tummy is getting so flat already! It was only a few days ago that it was waaaaay out there! And Shocked on your weight loss! Keep breastfeeding him if you can - it's a great way to steadily lose the weight.

He's so incredibly' cute! His second picture and your face picture are so similar - .I'll say this again, he totally has your profile.

Keep 'em coming!

I know what you mean! Noah was 8lbs 4oz at birth and everything was too big on him! He wore a few preemie outfits and he was 9 days late! Lol.

He is adorable! How is breastfeeding going for you?

.it's going.. uhh.. i don't know, lol. i'm pretty much just pumping & giving him my milk through bottles. i still nurse him & i do it for like 30 minutes at each boob, & even after that, he cries & roots on his fingers or his pacifier or anything that crosses his mouth, lol. so i end up having to give him a bottle. but at least he's still getting my milk & it's easier 'cause someone else can feed him if i need to do something, ya know?
