Loss of appetite while breastfeeding?

Question

Im about to be two weeks PP and I'm breastfeeding full time, but I've noticed loss of appetite. I'm not hungry at all, I still eat my breakfast lunch and dinner but it's more forced than anything. Is anybody else experiencing this?

Answer

I've been the same! I'll be 2 weeks PP tomorrow and have to force myself to eat. I don't feel hungry at all lately!

Answer

Ooh I definitely felt this way. I usually always pick what we're eating and my husband started getting so frustrated because I was never in the mood for anything. I'm 4 weeks out now and it's still not where it used to be but I'm definitely hungrier than I was those first few weeks.

Answer

I was so tired the first two weeks eating felt like a waste of time lol. I'd rather sleep.

Answer

This happened to me a few days before I got mastitis. I'm sure it was just a coincidence.

Answer

I think it has to do with hormones balancing out and your body going back to normal. I went through it and now all I want to do is eat.

Answer
