Mom…Baby Losing Weight After Childbirth!
How to lose weight after childbirth?
Putting on some weight is normal during pregnancy. Depending on the requirement dictated by the unborn and the body itself, an expectant can increase up top 25 pounds. For others it actually is more than that. But the main premise will the body go back to its normal shape and form, will it ever?
Right after giving birth:
the body still looks as though there is still a baby inside the womb. This goes on for a couple of more months until the time when the uterus shrinks down to its normal size again. The downside to this is that women are always in a hurry to drop all the extra pounds. If they fail in their quest, this leads to depression and stress.
The body will eventually loose the weight:
- but it needs working on to get the body in shape.
- A little more patience is required when breast feeding the young one.
- Because of the necessity to take in extra calories for lactic production,
- the body’s tendency is to hold on to extra fats for storage.
- This will make sure that milk in the mammary gland is full for the babies ever growing needs.
A little over six months is needed or minimum of three months:
- in order to stop eating for breastfeeding.
- This can only be done by those mothers who decide to give their milk to their child for only the minimum month.
- Breast feeding can go on for as long as there is milk in the mother’s system.
- To be able to sustain milk production it takes 500 cal.
By the time the mother stops or reduces breast feeding fat storage are automatically being reduced. This is triggered instantly thus weight starts to drop.

To get better results,
helping the body by eating properly and working-out will make getting back to shape faster. Even for mother who are staying at home, exercising proves to be hard especially with the new baby around all the time.
This is because, new mothers are not as active as they use to be. If they are in on strict diet the energy that they use up will make them too weak to handle the responsibilities they need to tackle throughout the whole day. Thus, in the long run, it becomes a yoyo diet effect. Also, not getting enough sleep can cause anyone to overeat.
Same goes with the new moms:
- The metabolism of the body plunges down to a low level that burning stored fats are hard,
- yet as an offset of feeling tired all the time the brain is turning to food for more energy.
- It will be good for the body to maintain a sense of balance.
- To make sure that sleep is not deprived taking short power naps with the baby will help with the weariness mood.
- As a result, the brains will not prompt the body to take in more food than is required.
- Turning back to eating before the pregnancy can be taxing.
- But, it can be done by keeping in mind that eating has now gone down to one person.
- This mindset needs to be grasped by the brain by consciously making effort to chose and reduce the size of helpings when eating.
These are the realities that can be turned around with enough will power and determination. Knowing is the first step to recovery, as what they say. It is true but it needs to be backed up by a lot of love and support.
