I know you're just dy-ing to know what's up with me, right? Right.
I guess it's confession time. Here it goes.
I gained a whopping 50 pounds during my pregnancy. Did I set a record? I must have! That's like a bazillion pounds man! Yeah, tell me about it.
Anyway, right after birth I was already down 15 pounds (9 of which was baby!). And now at 4 weeks I'm down 25 pounds. So half way there! However I was already down that 25 at 1.5 weeks so it's been slowing down. I am breast feeding and have been getting in some walks so hopefully the poundage will come off soon.
I keep having to remind myself that it took 9 months to pack it all on so it will probably take 9 more to drop it. Yikes.
My tummy is really squishy. And sore. I can feel my "abs" coming back together but there's definitely some extra lovin in the belly department.
My stitches have heeled & bleeding is donezo. Thank goodness!
I feel great overall! Loving my placenta pills - remind me to post more on that later though!
Welp that's all I got at 4 weeks pp!
Are the night sweats over? Man those were the worst! That and not being able to stand for extended periods of time because I felt like my tummy was empty! So excited to hear more about the placenta encapsulation! I researched it and wanted to get it done with Lily but it just didn't work out. Hoping to do it the next time for sure though!!
