I breastfed for 11 months. In that time, I lost 45 lbs. 25lbs were the babweight an the other 20lbs was bonus! As soon as I stoped BF’ing, I began eating things that I normally wouldn’t because the baby couldn’t tolerate them, and I gained the 20’bs back. I think everyone is different. Good luck and congrats on the new baby!
YES!! I lost a ton of weight the first 3 months. Like 20 lbs beyond the baby weight. (Then I ate like crap and gained some of it back)
I went from about 112 to 150 during my pregnancy. After giving birth, I lost about 20 pounds and eventually came back to the 112 after about a year of breastfeeding. I don’t exercise, don’t diet, eat ok, and am still maintaing about 112…but I’m still breastfeeding my 19 month old son.
no.
