Fri, 14 Aug 2009 12:40:32 +0000 http://208.79.203.56/articles/baby/weightlossafterpregnancy.asp#comment-2792 I disagree with part of this article. My OB explained to me that the 25-45 lb weight gain is overgeneralized - I agree with this. WIth my first pregnancy I gained 28 lb and was all out front. This current pregnancy I have gained 50 lbs. I am a very healthy eater, but for some reason this time around I have gained more weight. I think age, season (heat vs. cold), your body type, prepregnancy condition and your activity level have much to do with the weight gain. I don't think every woman should gauge her body on a generalized scale. As long as you are getting adequate activity/excercize and eat well, we shouldn't be worried about going over that 25-35 lb label! I disagree with part of this article.
