I think part is probably the stress associated with adoption and then you add to it the change in lifestyle-hard to exercise with a new baby, esp in the winter time, and -boom!- you have weight gain. I've gained about 10 lbs I'd guess (no scale-not that interested in quantifying it  ). oh and the feeding of dd real food-means we all eat frequently, more frequently than we should, lol.
