ExpertDr. Minal AcharyaNutritionist4 years agoA. Dear mum, as a breastfeeding mother, you should have a balanced diet having variety of food groups.
Also increase one healthy meal more as compared to before because requirements of the breastfeeding mother's are high.
Coming back to pre pregnancy weight will take some time and consistent efforts, so be patient.
Eat mindfully, avoid intake of high fat, sugar and salt containing processed packaged food. You should avoid excess ghee and oil intake.
Have lean protein sources and good intake of seasonal fruits and vegetables, small frequent meals.
Do not skip breakfast.
Have good water intake.
Exclusive breastfeeding till 6 months and continued breastfeeding till 2 years helps.
After six weeks of resting period. As a precaution, mothers who undergo c-section are asked to observe a rest period of six weeks before they can start to exercise and even if they start they have to go slow with their pace. The best way to start exercising after a c-section is to indulge in brisk walking, yoga or swimming, after consulting with your doctor and taking into account how you have healed. Strenuous exercises like joining a gym or ab-crunches can be done later like two to three months after starting with the basic exercise
