Ladies Is it true that breastfeeding or breast pumping helps you loose weight?!

Most definitely! I only breastfed for 3 month (I ended up sick) & I lost all 60lbs I gained during my pregnancy. Plus supposedly it helps get your hooha back to shape too

@gabbyflynn6, what 60lbs??! thats amazing!! I breastpump atleast 3 times a day since my baby boy doesn't latch onto boobi... and it gets your vagina back to shape?!! lol more tighter??

not for everyone...in my pregnancy group everyone said it was a myth lol...I think I was like one of the 4 that lost the weight

@frozenessence, nice i think it depends too on what you eat while breastfeeding because you're nursing you tend to eat alot so im guessing it all depends on how you balance the food

Your vaginas gets back into shape regardless lol you don't have to do anything for that. Now the breastfeeding definitely helps you loose the weight!

@andrrea, thats great! I've noticed that my face slimmed down and legs because when i was prego i got chubby lol

Oh absolutely!! I lost all the weight with my first but I breast fed and formula fed for the first four months. With my daughter I've been exclusively breastfeeding and I lost all the weight, 20 pounds, plus another 13 pounds. The only downside is that I've been losing my hair too :/

my daughter was breast feed the first 3 weeks then I dried up buy in that short amount of time I lost all my baby fat and was back in my regular clothes 2 weeks after giving birth

breast feeding does help you lose weight and helps you uterus shrink quicker back to size. I've been breast feeding exclusively for 12 days and I'm back to my pre-pregnancy weight.

yes helps your uterus shrink quicker

Yes!

yes it does
