When will I lose the baby weight...

Elle

I remember being 2 months post partum reading all about how bf does or doesn't melt the baby weight and I was left completely confused about when I should expect change. I obviously had passed the initial post birth mega drop. For two months I stayed the same. I was depressed and assumed I would hold on to the last 15 for a long time.

Then suddenly my kid started eating like a maniac around 4 months and at 5 months the pounds starting rapidly melting off. I'm assuming at this time I was peaking milk production/calorie burning.

This post is for all those early ftm's wondering when you'll get your body back. The answer is obviously different for everyone but I expect there's something to be said for that window around 5-6 months before solids when the baby is eating like a baby cow!!
