I put on ten pounds nursing, five of which I still have. Every time my daughter starts nursing less, I lose another pound or two. I'm still far hungrier than I used to be. I expect to lose another few pounds when she actually stops nursing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weight-after-extended-bf#post-1057183 Sat, 31 Aug 2013 08:31:46 +0000 chopsuey 1057183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I tandem nursed DD until she was 28 months old. Once I weaned her, I lost 10lbs. I'm still nursing DS (8 months old). I have about 14lbs to go until I get back to my wedding weight.</p> <p>edit: I was eating a lot more to make sure I had enough to EBF my son and nurse my DD 1-2x a day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weight-after-extended-bf#post-1057166 Sat, 31 Aug 2013 08:15:45 +0000 lizzywiz 1057166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mama's who nursed for 2ish years more or less:<br /> Once baby finally weaned, do you struggle with weight maintenance (yours, not LOs)?<br /> I see a lot of threads that talk about gaining weight after weaning but usually the LOs are younger. I was just thinking that if LO only nurses once or twice a day by the time you wean, surely it can't be such a huge impact...?<br /> any experiences? </p>
