Its a medically proven fact that women don't even need to put on 20 pounds to have a healthy baby. Any more than 20 pounds and they are using pregnancy as a reason to get fat.
My wife runs 20 to 25 miles a week to stay in shape, Theres not a whole lot of women out there that will commit to that and more. But then theres a lot of fat fuck men out there also.

My crazy wife does that many miles each Saturday and about 12 miles on Thursdays.
Her first full marathon is this Sunday.
Her first Obamacare knee will be in about 5 years I guess.

Funny I was talking to my girl last night about this. She said her mom gained 18lbs with her and another woman in the family gained 60lbs with each of her kids. Now she does crossfit every day and looks like she could kick my ass. I think it just depends on the woman as to how much weight gets put on.
Now getting the weight off after a pregnancy, that's another story.

My muay thai trainer gained 70lbs with her kid. she started at 110lbs. was literally 180 before she almost popped. Within a few months she was back down to her fight weight. she is an animal in the gym, and scares me.
It shouldn't be an excuse. It can be a hormonal bomb for the woman to have to learn to deal w/, especially if she's never had to work hard to maintain a body. There are the additional stresses of a newborn or multiple kids in early mom-hood, but there are so many examples of why it shouldnt' be a necessity nor an excuse.
I think the stresses of being a new mom is grossly underrated by males at large. Months pass with the only activity the get is with a baby that goes nowhere. You know how hard it is to get back in the gym after a extended time away...
I think that 6-8 weeks after us very telling as to her true motivation. If its not there what can you do...

For me HELL NO,! I have two kiddo's and I'm in better shape than before I got preago. During my pregnancy I gained about 90 pounds do to Preeclampsia( my kidneys started to shut down, blood pressure was stupid high). It's hard at first to get motivation to pick the weight back up, back after my second kid I learned to start working out as soon as I could and it works
I agree! It depends on the woman! With my first child I gained over 60 pounds, delivered at 196pounds! And a few months later I was back to a size 6! Later after going back to the gym I was even smaller! I hadn't even been that small when I was in high school! I think that my first pregnancy accelerated my metabolism! Now, with my second pregnancy, I had twins...I delievered at 180lbs, both babies were over 6 pounds too! I held onto the weight a little longer, but I was back to size 6 normally again. I think I didn't get back smaller again until my boys were almost 1 years old. I think if the woman stays active during her pregnancy she is more likely to lose it quicker after giving birth. If a woman isn't used to exercising to begin with on a regular basis, why on earth do you think they will start even after the weight has piled on with having children. They have to WANT to do it for themselves. Otherwise, it's useless complaining about something they won't even do for themselves!
Well, in my case, I was the one staying with the baby all day so I actually think is grossly overrated. First 4 weeks are tricky, after that you pretty much done figured the little one out.

Having a baby is no reason for a woman to stay "out of shape". We do gain some weight while carrying the new addition but we can train during that time to make the easier on ourselves to drop the added unwanted weight after giving birth.

It's laziness plain and simple. My wife used the same excuse for three years, always told me " I don't have time" or " buy me running shoes, gym membership etc etc" I tried all that, tried to help set up a meal plan that she rejected after 2 days. She always told me, that she'd never get fat or let herself go. After years of trying you either realize it's not happening and move on or stay miserable and dream of being with a woman in shape. I don't have the patience to wait on laziness, the same bs excuses time after time prove nothing but that person will never change.

I've had two kids, and went up to a size 14. I think my problem was depression, but I hated the man I was with, my situation, blah, blah blah. I remember he was being a particular dick one day and told me I was disgusting and worthless. There was no trying to speak to me about my weight positively, that he would help me, it was all put downs. Lol and his belly was bigger than mine.
Anyway, that night I remember thinking, alright muther fucker, I'll lose the weight. I lost 40lbs in a little over a year, went down to a size 1, and left his ass a year later.
The weight gain may not just be from laziness, it could be from unhappiness. And by saying that, I'm not saying to just live with it. Speak to your ladies tell them how it bothers you. Find out what's bothering her. Maybe the workout can be time you guys spend together away from kids, spin it as time to do something for herself. Tell her how it takes stress away and gives you energy. But then you gotta put the responsibility on her, she does it so you both and your kids can have a better life. Be honest, if you are losing attraction, then tell her. It's not fair for you to just have to suffer in silence because she will let her little girl feelings hurt. Either way there will be resentment. You resent her for getting fat, she resents you for telling her.

Having a baby can dramatically change a woman's hormone profile. If a woman is dieting and exercising but not losing weight as would be expected or as she did pre baby it us quite likely that the reason is hormonal. A full hormone panel should be run including thyroid which needs to include FreeT3 and FreeT4. Yes there are lots of lazy birches out there, but that is not the only reason women's bodies change.
