How to lose weight while breastfeeding?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Discuss with PCP: Work with your pcp or nutritionist to decide on a proper food intake that would support your pre-pregnancy weight. Then just stay on that program and continue to breastfeed. You can drop 1-3 pounds a month with this method ; it should stay off.
