I have 2 children ( ages almost 3 and just turned 5) and gained 40-50 pounds each time. I still am carrying an extra 15 pounds ( was 158, then 167 when PG with them) from those pregnancies.

I'd like to ttc for #3 and really need to lose the weight- at least 10 pounds of it. Can't seem to get motivated!
Do I wait and lose ( I'm 181 now) or go for it and deal with the weight later? I'm nearing 35 and really don't want to spread out the pregnancies much longer if I do it.

So, I'm curious- for those of you who have had more than 1 baby, how consistent was your weight gain?

Both pregnancies were healthy.
