I'm 8w pp. My weight seems to be stagnant. I'm exclusively pumping all the feeds for my LO. I read somewhere that breastfeeding without top up helps lose 500cal a day. Is it because I'm not latching?
The production of milk is probably the one that consumes the 500 kcal regardless of whether we latch. But we probably consume a lot more than 500 kcal a day, so to lose weight, we also need other exercise, and to watch our diet. However, don’t go on a crazy diet, because you need to eat a well balanced diet to produced good milk for baby.
