After delivery I am increasing my weight

A. Breastfeeding your baby can help you lose weight even as you sit comfortably in your favourite chair. Breastfeeding mothers can burn up to 600 to 800 calories a day as the body now needs additional calories to breastfeed the baby.The tricky part, however, is when your baby is being weaned off breast milk and is gradually consuming semi-solid or solid foods. When you taper-off breastfeeding, there is a possibility that your weight will increase, so be ready with a backup plan like an exercise routine to compensate for that.
