I took DS on a lot of walks when he was a baby.
And once I got him into a routine, it helped me get back on track as far as eating habits, exercise. But at first, I just didn't feel like doing anything 'cuz it seemed like I was forever feeding, changing, rocking, bathing -- he wasn't a good napper at first. And I was just overwhelmed with all the new responsibilities.
Just enjoy your little guy and don't worry about losing weight. You'll have plenty of time to do that in the future.

I have to chime in again with the breastfeeding. I am breatsfeeding a 7 month old and I am now down to the size I was at 21! In fact, I am to the point now where I eat whatever I want whenever I want so I don't keep losing. If you're not breastfeeding and are really dedicated you could try to relactate, but I would say don't even bother if it is only for weight loss desires. It's a ton of work if you aren't dedicated to the idea of breastfeeding as well.
If you aren't breastfeeding and aren't interested- <b>exercise</b>! It's good for your CF and for weight loss. Try putting the baby in a sling or baby carrier on your body and go for a walk every night - that should increase your heart rate a bit and give both of you some good time together. Be patient though - you're only 2 months pp, it will come off in time! Your babe is a beauty!

Vampy, I think you look great. Lucus is such a cutie! Curious, how much weight did you gain with the pregnancy?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LouLou I was 114 lbs when i found out iw as pregnant and then i went down to 11. but by the time i had him i was roughly 150 lbs and i still had nearly two months to go. i got huge. everyone asked me how i got out of bed, and if i was carrying twins. I got married september 30th and i was only 10 weeks pregnant and i had a baby bump. I wanna be back down to 115 and not only that i wanna stop jiggyling everytime i walk too LOL

A 36 lb. weight gain isn't crazy huge. I don't know your height but you may have been underweight at 114 lbs. I encourage as you set your weight goal to think in terms of a healthy BMI. Ask your doctor what BMI (s)he thinks you should be. And then here's a calculator to see what weight that correlates to. <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/">BMI Calculator</a>
I had a BMI of 22.5 pre-pregnancy at 5'3" and 127lbs.
I know it's easier said than done but you might need to work on correcting your self image. You may be healthier at a weight higher than 114 (again I don't know your height so I don't know for sure) and isn't that want you want overall...to be healthy and live a long time with Lucus and your hubby. Exercising will help improve your self image as you ton that wonderful body of yours.

In case you are curious, my BMI is a 26 now since I am up to 147 lbs. at 31 weeks pregnant. My goal is to be 152 lbs. at 37 weeks. This is my goal because I want to have a buffer to protect my body as I breastfeeding my baby in case I get sick and lose 10 lbs I won't have to give up nursing just to maintain my own health. Although I am fully aware I might have to give up bf'ing with the extra energy it will require from my body. I will do it as long as I am capable but will not jepardize my health because although I want to give my baby the best start possible and all the immunities possible, I want to be around as long as possible.

According the the BMI calculator im a few points shy of being overweight. that means time to diet for me. My whole family is overweight my grandmother has a honkeytonk badonkiedonk that would make j lo mad with envy. You could set a tray on her butt full of food and it wouldnt go no where. we are all short and overweight. I was pretty much only one who stayed thin until i got pregnant, i dont wanna look like my mother. 220 pounds and 5ft 5in. I look at that pic i posted and i can see im almost exactly like her which scares the crap out of me.
