You can be my breastfeeding and baby walking buddy! My BMI is about 46 now, just creeping up. Perhaps that is due to the Ben & Jerries I am eating at the moment. I'm hoping to slim down a bit when I've had the baby, hence the nice pram and the plan to breastfeed. It can work - my Mum was at her slimmest after having kids!

The Anaesthetist told me I had a fat back and said that they might have difficulty when I'm in labour, and that I should think about opting for an early epidural.

Well If any one knows shibden park and wants to go pram strolling I am more than happy to do so once bubs arrives

BTW funniest thing atm is that everyone swears I am losing weight and that its just bump getting bigger.... not pinning my hopes on this but it would be nice

I have got an appointment on 16/04/09 to see the aneasthatist due to BMI.. its 42... woopsy... but since then my weight has gone up so it would now be 46.2 double woopsy.... However I am planning for baby to be 9lbs and then everything else to weigh 8lbs... then loose loads once baby arrives by breast feeding, and going for walks in the park! Although I do realise this may not happen. :rolleyes:

No reason why not!!

My last pregnancy I was a size 12 at the beginning and put on 2 stone probably a size 16, after breastfeeding and the birth (also lost my huge appetite) I was a size 8 about 6 weeks later!!

This pregnancy I was a size 10, I have now put on a stone and 1/2 though most of that is on my boobs :eek: but im measuring a 16 again, im quietly confident BF and healthy eating will slim me down to at least a 12 again

My Mum said she would be suprised if I'm not lighter afterwards. I think I've gained 13lbs, and that seems about on target, taking into account the size of the baby, placenta, blood, boobs and all that. I'll be interested to see what I weigh when things have settled down after the baby.

My Brother is getting married in September, and the baby will be 5 months or so then. I'm hoping to be 'normal' (for me!) by then.

You could try just expressing?

I'm tempted to breastfeed and express loads extra and donate it/throw it away - I like the idea of burning lots of calories!
