Hi Charisma
I think it's a bit of everything really. Well it was for me. I have 3 kids and each pregnancy was different and very different as far as how much weight I put on.
First pregnancy I suffered terribly with morning sickness until the 5 month so I actually dropped a stone before I started to put any on. Put on approx 2.5 stone in total and after giving birth was immediately 19lbs lighter! Baby was 10lbs though!!
Second and third pregnancies I put on approx 3.5 stone each time even though I ate healthily I feel and worked up until 8 months. No morning sickness with either so I guess that had an effect compared to the first one.
All in all, although I was overweight before all 3 pregnancies. I did manage to shift what I had put on within about 6 months after giving birth. Just the rest of it that I need to shift now
