    I've lost a heap of weight over the last year and I'm not sure any of it is due to breastfeeding!!! The problem with 'relying' on BFing to lose weight is that you don't count all the extra hours you have sitting on your behind when your bub is still so tiny. You simply might not be moving as much as you did pre=pregnancy. I found I started losing weight when I started exercising, but DS was at least 4 months old (I think) by then. Let you body heal before you strain it hun xxxx Enjoy the newborn cuddles and watching bubba grow, that's your biggest job right now, not to lose weight xxxx *hugs*

    Oh, I just wanted to clarify that the weightlosss has been slooooooow. Less than 3kgs a month. Some weeks I put on weight.... remember you BBs weigh a fair bit now too! LOL
