Welcome Anna. I hear ya on the baby weight. Been there, done that. I gained alot of weight when I had my babies too. It does come off, eventually.

I found it took nearly a full year to really feel like I was "back to normal" and that included my head too. I think we are alot more tired and drained then we realize
Keep trying, it will happen.

Enjoy your daughter. 6 months is a great age and it just keeps getting better and better.
