How is 40 lbs. at once even possible? Did the kid come out holding on to loose internal organs?
I fed off a flowerperson, and I spent the next six hours watchin' my hand move.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Amniotic fluid + placenta accounts for a lot more weight than a newborn baby.

Now tagless for your comfort.
There are lots of...fluids.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I figured afterbirth would outweigh the baby, but almost 5x as much still seems jaw-dropping.

Aww! You're fine, Kate. I know that type of thing sucks, but you're pregnant! Don't worry too much about it.
What Liese said. And hey! If you can and choose to breast feed, you may soon find yourself skinnier than you've been in decades.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
A friend lost 40 pounds in the delivery room. Only 7 of those were baby.
Good lord.
The most consistent exercise I ever did was while I was on maternity leave!
Ha, good to know! Of course, it's going to be hot as Hades here soon after Sprog arrives, so perhaps I will just plan to sweat off most of the excess weight. I'm also hoping that breastfeeding will help, if that goes well. Totally reason enough to have a big ol' cookie this afternoon, right?
