after csection weight?
I had gained about 50 pounds overall. I had my son csection on thr 19th in the evening. I checked my weight for the first time and im down about 20 pounds. Which im sooo happy about but im all worried now that i checked it too soon cuz now im going to worry im gaining weight. Do you think even more weight will come off me since im only 4 to 5 days out? I barely made my first bowel movement last night. And i have been breasfeeding exclusively since hes been born.

I'd be careful about setting you expectations too high.
I gained about 60 lbs this pregnancy. I had a c section and am exclusively pumping. I didn't check my weight until 2 weeks pp, but I dropped 40 lbs!
I only say use caution, because I don't know how fast that came off initially, but I had almost no weight change between weeks 2-3. So don't get discouraged. Your doing great!

I told myself I'm not allowed to check until 1 week PP lol but 20 lbs right off the start is lucky. Just keep BF, eat moderately well & I would guess it will come off just fine. With my first it took 3 months. We will see with this one

Trust me the weight will keep coming off if you're sensible and don't shove crap in your mouth like I did after my first ? I lost all my weight in a couple weeks and then gained half back bc I was SO hungry and ate like I was still pregnant lol
