Issues after Delivery  Discussion Forum

I have put on 20 kilos or more during my pregnancy and still the same, it's three months eversince my delivery.
As of now I am breastfeeding would like to continue till my baby is one year old.
I would like to know the appropriate time to start reducing so that I get back to my pre-pregnancy size. The area I would want to reduce the most is my arms, from my shoulders down to the elbow. Please suggest!! ruby replied. hi newmom,

so u wanna to join us??i am right now doing daily walking for 30 to 45 min..gud diet control(avoid fatty food)..n running behind my baby(gud exercise)...nothing more than that..n u have juz completed 3 months of postpartum periods..wat i wud say iz once if ur baby iz 6 months above u will automatically loose atleast 5 to 10 kg'a b4 her 24 months if u are living abroad...but if u in india u will b having more family members to help n look after ur baby so u may gain more n more....so go for regular walks daily,eat healthy food ,avoid fries...dunt think abt weight loos for another 3 to 4 months..let ur baby start having solid food then u can think abt weight reducing..breastfeeding also helps to reduce weight..so bf her as much as u can ...follow some bm producing diet ideas like garlic fried in ghee n mix with rice n eat...soak fenugreek in water overnight n eat it nex day.gud luck mom...and my most imporant tip iz use ccloth diapers for ur baby...itz a gr88 exercise i found washing baby's cloth nappies..gud luck mom
