We got home from the hospital Monday night. For some reason I decided that night, that it would be a good idea to weigh myself to see how much weight I've lost already. I know, apparently I went brain dead for a moment. Despite giving birth to a 7 1/2 pound baby, plus placenta, fluid, etc, I had lost ONLY SEVEN POUNDS.
For my pregnant friends out there, please DON'T attempt this at home. Box up your scale indefinitely!
