Are you losing weight while breastfeeding ?

Question

breastfeeding ?" />

Answer

I am BUT it didn't start until hut before 6 months! I lost all baby weight very quickly but I still needed to lost more (about 20ish lbs of extra love ;) ). Now it's almost falling off!

I have heard it's normal for it to be delayed. While breastfeeding at any age is beneficial for baby, the most important is the first 6 months of life when that is the sole source of nutrition. I was told because of that many women's bodies hold on to that extra weight so there are no nutritional deficiencies for her or baby.

Answer

I gained 40 while pregnant and lost 75 nursing. It's been nice - I can eat whatever I want. It'll be hard for me to adjust when I stop nursing!

Answer

I gained 52 while pregnant...dropped 40 of it in the 1st month. I have 8 left to get back to 130 but I EP which I think helped me a lot.

Answer

Yup. I had a c section and didn't do much the first month. Still dropped 27lbs of the 40 I gained. 3m pp now I don't know how much weigh lol

Answer

I lost all the baby weight within the first few months (while EBF) but for the past few months I have stayed the same weight (baby girl is almost 7 months old)

Answer

Lucky you ladies !! I am getting smaller ( people told me and I can tell with my clothes ) because I work out but not a single pound down since 3weeks pp

Answer

I haven't yet but I also had a c section so I haven't been mobile much until the past day or two. With my first two I lost 30 pounds in the first month after I had them.

Answer

Nooooooooo. I wanted to be lucky, but oh well! I lost all my baby weight right after I had him, but I had like 30 extra lbs to lose. I was hoping BFing would help, and I've actually gained 2lb from my boobs growing. It's very frustrating. I'm vegan and eat a clean diet, so I know it must be hormone related.
