Is Keto ok while breastfeeding?

Question

I genuinely have no idea because my first is on the way. I’m looking at weight loss options after delivery. Any tips would be appreciated!

Answer

Keto is totally fine. I asked my doctor about it and he said it was fine. I can’t stick to a certain diet while nursing tho lol. I have cravings just like I did while pregnant

Answer

It’s fine, but good luck! Pregnancy hunger is nothing compared to BF hunger!

Answer

Keto is so bad for you

Answer

My friend tried this and had a supply issue until she added carbs back, her doctor told her carbs play a big role in milk production.

Answer

No!!!!

Answer

You loose sooo much baby weight with breast feeding and pumping. I exclusively pumped and still pump for my girl even though she’s on hypoallergenic formula. I gained 50lbs in 3w I lost 37 and at 8w I lost all my baby weight.

Answer

Not while breastfeeding. Just eat a moderate amount of healthy carbs and exercise regularly.

Answer

I would suggest trying a vegan or plant based diet over keto any day.

Answer

Thank ladies! I’m going to avoid keto in the end. I don’t want to cause issues with my supply. I’ll just eat healthy and balanced with whole carbs.
