Pregnancy/Baby Questions

I've been told that breast feeding helps you to lose your pre-preg weight fairly quickly? Has anyone had, or not had this experience?

Sorry to hi-jack your thread Dan7!

Yes indeedy. I found this to be so. Also, of my friends who had vaginal versus c/s, the vaginal birthers seemed to lose abdominal weight quicker on average. GL Kristin.

Dan7 - I agree that a woman can have the same body as pre-pregnancy and for me it didn't even take that much work. Can obviously be quite individual though but definately achievable. I agree with the 6 week post baby timeframe (at least) before getting back to serious training. Most often, a 6 week examination is given by your Dr. anyway and this is a good time to check/ask such questions.
