'''Post pregnancy weight gain''', also called '''[[postpartum weight gain]]''' or '''[[postpartum weight retention]]''', refers to [[body weight]] retained or gained after [[childbirth]]. It is common for women to retain some of the weight gained during [[pregnancy]], especially during the early postpartum period. For some women, weight gradually decreases with recovery, [[breastfeeding]], improved sleep, nutrition, and activity; for others, weight retention can persist and contribute to long-term [[overweight]], [[obesity]], [[insulin resistance]], [[sleep apnea]], [[hypertension]], and other metabolic health concerns. | '''Post pregnancy weight gain''', also called '''[[postpartum weight gain]]''' or '''[[postpartum weight retention]]''', refers to [[body weight]] retained or gained after [[childbirth]].
