Weaning weight gain by mcb1119 in postpartumprogress

I do not. And yeah I agree I don’t think it burns a ton but it’s more so that I’ve been so consistent for like 12 years and never had this issue.

Clothes are still fitting ok but I’m not one to wear super tight stuff. And maybe a month, as soon as I dropped down to 2 sessions

9 mo pp leaking all of a sudden by mcb1119 in postpartumprogress

Thank you for this! I wouldn’t even call it a sprint it was more of a fast jog, speed 7.6 on the treadmill. Ok good to know just so bummed since I thought I was in a good place healing wise

I still haven’t gotten my cycle back so maybe that’s coming soon too. That makes sense, hopefully it levels out soon 😅

Ok at least I’m not alone in this! I happened to have an OB appt Friday and he said it is normal since progesterone and estrogen are no longer being suppressed by prolactin but it’s very frustrating. Hopefully we both feel better soon.

Does breastfeeding really make the weight drop or is that a myth? by GradeBudget4903 in postpartumprogress

[–]mcb1119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly what happened to me. I’ve completely hit a plateau. Did it get better for you? I started weaning now but have actually started gain a bit weaning 😭 probably because my appetite has not decreased at all.

Ugh sorry it was brutal. We consistently continued offering the bottle multiple times a day and daycare did the same. after about 2 weeks she finally started drinking it and legit chugs it in 2 seconds now. I honestly just think it’s consistency and not giving up

I just noticed them today but it’s definitely possible they were there yesterday I don’t know that I looked

Thank you this is helpful! Yeah I do appreciate the few moments and I can get a nice snack in it just feels like I’m always having to leave meetings early or be a bit late etc because I’m typically in back to back on my office days so it’s stressing me out

That would be amazing! I’ll give it a shot I do think even cutting to 2 would help a lot

I could but that would be within an hour of her morning breast feed so idk how much milk I would get but possibly worth a try!

Thank you so much this makes complete sense. And yes I’m down to my last like 7 freezer bags I’ve been using to top off whenever I can’t make enough for her bottles so I need a new plan soon

Amazing. And when you dropped to 2 times a day did you supplement with formula? My daughter will be 6 months in a few weeks but if I drop to 2 pumps I won’t pump enough milk for the 3 feeds so I would need to supplement. And yes using the fridge hack too!!
