At best I've been size 8 at just under 5' and I've looked great. Although I'm tiny my bone structure isn't tiny (not large, but not tiny either) so I'm the best at around 125 lbs. At size 12 where I've most usually resided since I was a kallah I look okay. Size 8 might be a dream of the past though but I still have high hopes for size 10. Right now I'm a size 12-14

Prepregnancy- 5'3'' size 10. Post baby- (still 5'3'') size 6. I know. WEIRD. I attribute it to the fact that my whole pregnancy I craved PROTEIN and healthy things. I never wanted to pig out on chips- well, hardly ever. Now on the other hand.... I can't stop eating chocolate!!! (hormones... they're crazy things...)

I'm officially back at pre pregnancy size as my weight has been going away on its own (I only have 1 kilo to go). I cant believe it myself. My preg clothes are already packed away from the closet for next time with G-d's help. I cant say if it is caused by nursing, by luck (?), or because apparently I have a bad anemia and tiredness. So yeah. I cannot say my waist is as slim as before though, and I have an extra something (fat? skin?) on the belly, definitely not flat...

You're actually the same size? You're very lucky! After I gave birth, even though I weighed the same as before, my hips were wider and all the extra flabby skin from the belly baby still made me a size larger.

I think that I'm probably a 6.
I'm 5' and weigh 116 (down from 133!)

I once heard a bubby say to a young new mother who was complaninig about her weight,
"Nu, its better like this, your husband needs something to hold on to!"

The extra belly would definitely make me gain a size if my skirts hadn't always been large there (my hips need a much bigger size than my waist because they're not thin so I buy a size 8, they wouldnt enter a smaller size while my waist could have), now my skirts just don't fall on my hips constantly LOL

I'm under the impression that I have lost mainly on thighs and hips, where I could never lose before. I've heard it is because of nursing, who knows...

yeah after losing the pregnancy weight I also had some extra skin on my stomach. it goes away on its own...the stomach muscles and skin is stretched out after pregnancy and sometimes takes a while to get back to original form...it took me a good 4 months for the stomach to flatten completely! but yes it happens eventually. the stomach really does get back to itself...even though I never would have believed it in the beginning of my postpardum experience...I was like " am I gonna have this bulge forever?!

Can I ask how you did it and how long it took you? That's exactly how much I weigh and and that's exactly what I'd like to weigh.
I'm 5'2".

I am under 5' and am a UK size 8 (I think that's US 4-6)
Probably helped through not having had a post-preg belly to deal with.
I weigh around 100lb

You're fortunate. Mine never went away after my first pregnancy. I have a little drape of belly skin which is just gross. And then after the twins it got worse. Even when I've lost weight it is still there - the loose skin. I talked to my doctor about it, and he said that some people's skin never bounces back and that the only thing to do is have plastic surgery to remove the excess skin when I'm finished having babies.
