feelin quite reassured by all the responses

i'm bf'ing nd still got a lot of fluid to lose... so gonna weigh myself in a week (i know i should stay away from the scales but i won't!)... nd as long as i'm on the right path i'll stop stressin!!
lol, i think a big part of the problem is also that i've put on soooo much weight in my face... i don't look like me anymore!!

You lose loads in fluid...wait til the full-on night sweats start! They're just lovely!

I've got a Fin...well, a Finley - such a gorgeous name

I too was really fretting about this...the facial weight is a killer, but honestly, in a few weeks, you will return to your usual self...I looked like I had 6 chins

If you keep up with breastfeeding the weight will fall off! Also your little one will keep you so busy you won't have time to eat! I'm 4 weeks pp and bf'ing and losing weight at about 3 lbs a week with zero exercise. I lost 14 in the first week but most was baby and fluids.

Ooh so what's the deal with the night sweats then?!! I've been getting them too!

I am also worried I'll b porky forever! In reality im not far off my pre preggers weight but I gained a few pounds before I got pregnant so now feel massive

I do have a lovely healthy bouncing baby boy though

i think the night sweats is one of the ways ur kidney shed more fluid... i've been sweatin more in general.
i've dropped a stone since the op so i'm not stressin... still got a stone nd a half to go to my pre-pregnancy weight... nd then another stone to get to the weight i was this time last year.
breastfeedin is awesome for helpin u drop weight!
as soon as i can get out nd about pushin the pram as well i think that'll help even more!
