Pregnancy Questions

~*BCA*~ FIND THE CURE! asked:


I am exercising and eating better (water, salads etc..) but I am actually gaining weight now! (like a pound every 2 weeks!) I am 7 lbs over my pre-pregnancy weight and used to always be petite. Did anyone do something special to lose weight? (other than breastfeeding) Is this normal because it has only been 2 months since I had my son? Any similiar experiences?

mommyem asked:


Once this pregnancy is over, I will have about 60 pounds worth of weight to lose from my present pregnancy and weight that I never lost from 2 previous pregnancies. How soon after I give birth can I start to exercise? What kinds of exercises are most effective to lose the type of weight gained from being pregnant? Which for me is mostly in the stomach, thighs, and arms. I am at a beginning or maybe moderate exercise level, and I will have 3 young children to take care of while exercising.
