Staying the same

[FionaMcd]

Hi everyone,

Quick question really. My daughter is 4 weeks old and I'm exclusively breastfeeding, following extra easy with added healthy extra but I just can't seem to shift weight past couple weeks? Is it just a case of my body getting used to changes or maybe feeding is a weight loss myth lol
Thanks x

Hi fiona, I didn't want to read and run.
I couldn't say for sure but I'd imagine it is just your body readjusting. You aren't gaining so you obv aren't doing anything wrong.
I'd suggest giving it another couple of weeks, perhaps ask your health visitor for advice but other than that I'd say just stick with what you're doing and when the hormone levels rebalance from the pregnancy I'd imagine you would start losing again, especially while breastfeeding as it uses a lot of calories to make milk so I hear! Good luck and congratulations on the birth of your new daughter xx
