I'm 36 weeks pregnant and I'm not desperate to lose weight.. but I was told that breastfeeding can help shed the pounds away.. Now I was reading online that some women lost 30-40lbs breastfeeding. I'm like no way just because I've experience dieting b4(not that its the same) but its not for me.. Could someone please give me more details on this subject THANKS
Some women do lose more weight breastfeeding but I know most of my friends just ate more to compensate for the extra calories they needed so they lost at about the same rate as a non breastfeeding mom but every woman is different.
"The U.S. Institute of Medicine states that the average exclusively breastfeeding woman burns an extra 500 calories per day. About 170 calories per day are burned from maternal fat stores, so these women need to consume an extra 330 calories per day." From Wiki.
I breastfed both my younger children and went back to my pre-pregnancy weight in about 3 months.
