So How long did it take you to get back into your pre-pregnancy clothes when you breastfed? My DD is 4 months and I am only back in my 'fat' clothes....

About 6-8 months I think, had a consistant but slow weight loss whilst bf, really missed it when I stopped Blush

Not so far - DD1 was 13 months and still bfing when got pg with DD2.

Got back to pre-DD2 weight quickly, but gained a bit while bfing her.

Lost that again when stopped Bfing DD2.

Now pg with DC3 - still carrying 1.5 stone since DD1, she is 3.9!

About six weeks, although some tops were not suitable for my new boobs. Tbh I thought that was quite normal when you breastfed - apparently not Blush

I was an 8 pre pg, delivered in December, back comfortably in an 8 by April

Marking place.

Was a size 8 pre-pregnancy, a 14-16 now at 6 weeks post birth and feeling heifer-like Sad I have 3 stone to lose!

About a year, and still not as small as pre pg, but I was skinny before. Try not to worry!

Two weeks but did a lot of striding around with a pram - in fact three months post DC 2 I was the skinniest I'd been for years at about 8.5 stone & 5' 8".

Was BFing for four years in total (constantly).

Eating spare fish-fingers soon put pay to that though - beware the toddlers left-overs - it does you no good (still do it though - wasted food is BAD)

took me 9 months each time. I seemed to retain weight when bf - it certainly didn't drop off me like it does for others. I had to diet each time unfortunately.

My DS is 10 months and I am still 2 sizes bigger than I was originally Blush and now I am pregnant again who knows when I'll be thin again Sad

I out on 4.5 stone with my last pregnancy. I was enormous!

It took 4.5 months for it all to go, I was ebf and I did a lot of walking. I was squeezing into pre-pregnancy clothes from about 3 months post (not a good look, but I refused to buy more clothes!)
