How can I gain weight after pregnancy?



I know a lot of women have problem losing weight after pregnancy. My problem is after I gave birth I have been losing weight like crazy. I am 5'3 and I am now 97 pounds. I would like to gain 15 pounds... help

Buy Ensure.
Take multi-vitamins with your meals.
I had the same problem after pregnancy, my sisters also.
believe me we have the opposite problem now trying to lose weight.
I weighed 98, my sister weighed 92 and my other sister was really thin also.
Make sure there is nothing wrong.
My sisters and I were all anemic.
We were just anorexic type women when we were in our child-bearing years, but now we are normal and have to watch NOT to gain.
If you are breast feeding (first let me applaud u if you are bc so many women dont these days)...
Breast feeding makes your body use more calories- so if you arent eating enough calories to balance that out then u will lose weight.
Either way- calories in= calories out= weight stays same; calories in> calories out = wt gain
calories in< calories out = wt loss
if you continue losing weight though there might be another reason behind it and u might need to see a doctor.
