ExpertDr. Minal AcharyaNutritionist6 years agoA. Dear mum as a breastfeeding mother you should have a balance diet which provides variety of food groups
also increase one healthy meal more as compared to before because requirements of the breastfeeding mother 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
control intake of high fat and sugar lactational foods like panjiri ladoo excess ghee and oil intake
lean protein sources and good intake of seasonal fruits and vegetables small frequent meals
do not skip breakfast
good water intake
begin to exercise after consulting doctor
Exclusive breastfeeding till 6 months and Continued breastfeeding till 2 years helps in weight loss.
Janani ViswanathanMom of 2 children6 years agoA. Exercises will be the more natural way to get ur tummy back to form or lose the extra weight . Start with slow pace exercises like walking. If u had normal delivery then after ur post natal check up u can start exercising around eight weeks. If u had c section after six months, consult with your doctor once and if the doctor confirms the internal stitches should have healed then you can start exercising. You can go for ab exercises or yoga like bhujangasana or pavanmukthasana or Surya namaskar on a regular basis starting with mild ones and gradually increasing the complexity. Also take care of your diet. Avoid junk and include healthy fruits and vegetables.
