While it's quite obvious that every woman is going to gain weight during pregnancy (Hello? You have another person in there with you), many womenenCommunityServer 2007.1 (Build: 20910.1126)http://www.babble.com/CS/blogs/strollerderby/archive/2006/12/12/skinny-mom-baby-weight-loss.aspx#827Fri, 15 Dec 2006 15:33:36 GMT42a08a39-daf3-4129-8a63-8a27b879cc03:827jonelle<p>I, too, gained nearly 40 lbs, and was back to pre-pregnancy-ish size (no scale) by 6 weeks. Breastfeeding and constant walking, rocking, bouncing, singing, etc. will do the trick.</p> <img src="http://www.babble.com/CS/aggbug.aspx?PostID=827" width="1" height="1">http://www.babble.com/CS/blogs/strollerderby/archive/2006/12/12/skinny-mom-baby-weight-loss.aspx#600Wed, 13 Dec 2006 21:12:14 GMT42a08a39-daf3-4129-8a63-8a27b879cc03:600misswolfe<p>This makes me feel tons better.
