I am in my second trimester and already worrying about how I will lose all this weight postpartum! It's so scary seeing my body change. Are you guys also planning to start gymming soon after delivery or does it take months to get back to normal?
Losing pregnancy weight takes time, especially if your hormones are fluctuating. I had thyroid issues during pregnancy, so my weight loss was quite slow and I had to get regular thyroid tests done. My doctor advised me to start walking slowly and eat a balanced diet, so do check with your gynac before starting any strict routine.
Honestly, don't rush into losing weight right now, your body needs to heal. My mom and dadi made sure I ate healthy ghee and gond laddus for recovery. Just focus on breastfeeding and eating warm ghar ka khana, the weight will eventually go down naturally.
Beta, thoda sabr rakho, sharir ko thik hone mein samay lagta hai. Chhota bachha hai toh aaram se breastfeeding karao, usse hi aadha vajan kam ho jata hai. Thoda bohot ghar ka kaam aur halki walk karo, sab thik ho jayega.
I know how frustrating it feels to look at your postpartum body, but please don't do any crash dieting. Your body has gone through so much, especially if you had a tough pregnancy with lots of pukes like I did. Eat nutritious food, drink water, and just start with gentle 15-minute walks when you feel ready.
