“Parang (It was like) right after pregnancy, para pa ring buntis (I looked like I was still pregnant). I still looked pregnant because of all the water left,” Lahbati explained.
She weighed 63 kilograms before getting pregnant and had a normal weight gain of 15 kilos during pregnancy.
Instead of panicking and getting worried about water retention, the star advised new moms to take it easy and to avoid taking drastic measures to lose weight. She added that their baby weight will help them breastfeed their babies.
