Breast-feeding while maintaining pregnancy weight?

Question

Is there a way to exclusively breast-feed without losing all of your pregnancy weight seems like pregnancy is the only time I’m able to put weight on and then when I breast-feed I lose all the weight & more , this pregnancy with my daughter I have gained so much but do not want to formula feed her and I want to stick to breast-feeding when I have her but I do not want to lose all of my weight

Answer

Up your calorie intake! Breastfeeding burns like 500 calories a day on average (so I’ve heard but haven’t researched) so make sure you’re replacing them all!

Answer

I didn’t lose any weight breastfeeding.

Answer

Eat or drink something packed with calories and protein like workout shakes or bars on top of your regular eating. Even just a meal replacement shake will give you easy extra calories. I don’t gain weight easily and also get full super quick so shakes save me when I know I should eat but don’t feel hungry.

Answer

Consume more calories. You burn 300 just making milk alone. Also, up your protein consumption. Healthy fats and proteins will help you hold the weight.

Answer

My weight melted off of me while I breastfed. Make sure you drink water all day.
