Does Breastfeeding Really Help You Lose Weight? Posted: 12-01-05 21:39pm
I just wanted to know from mothers who
have breastfed their children if it helped
them lose weight a lot faster! I tryed
with my first daughter, but she just
wouldn't latch on right, but I am 30 weeks
pregnant now and I am going to try with my
second! So just wanted to know!
Thanks! :d

I read that breastfeeding does help you
lose weight as long as you stick with it.
Each time you breastfeed, you burn 500
calories. I think I read that in the new
babytalk magazine.

There are a lot of benefits that you and
your baby could get in breastfeeding and
it does help in loosing weight provided
that you wont depend on breastfeeding
itself as it also requires self-discipline
because after you give birth normally a
women's food intake would excess to the
amount of calorie required per day.
Anyway here are some more benefits that
you get on breastfeeding:
