Post delivery my size has gone up so much and none of my old kurtis fit properly. Baby is 3 months and im still feeding. Will it come back to normal on its own or do i need to do something?
Beta, don't do any heavy dieting or rubbing home remedies on your chest while you are feeding the baby. Once you wean the child, you can start drinking warm water with a little lemon and honey in the morning to boost metabolism, and do light chest exercises.
Listen, don't stress too much about your size right now! Your body is currently in mom-mode and needs those reserves. Just enjoy this phase with your little one, and you can focus on fitness and toning once you are fully recovered.
With my PCOS, my hormones were already all over the place, so my breast size changed a lot during and after pregnancy. I noticed that gradual, light exercise and a balanced diet helped things get back in shape slowly. Don't rush it, hormonal balance takes time.
Oh god, I completely understand this worry, I used to panic thinking my size would never go back to normal. But trust me, once you stop breastfeeding, the hormone levels settle down and the size reduces naturally. Don't stress too much right now, your body is doing its job.
If you feel any pain, lumps, or unusual heaviness, please consult your gynac first rather than trying random remedies. Sometimes blocked ducts can also cause swelling. Let your doctor examine and tell you if it's normal postpartum changes.
Baccha, your body has just created a whole human life, so give it some grace and time. Wear a highly supportive sports bra or feeding bra to prevent sagging. The size will eventually decrease once active feeding stops, so be patient with yourself.
I see this question asked so often here! The truth is, breast size is mostly fat and glandular tissue that increases for milk production. Once you stop weaning, it naturally shrinks. Regular walking and simple chest presses at home will help tone the muscles underneath.
Honestly, I am currently pregnant and busy craving hot samosas, so I am trying not to think of how my body will look post-baby! But from what my friends say, breastfeeding actually burns a lot of calories and helps lose weight naturally later.
Instead of thinking about expensive postpartum treatments or fancy shapewear, just invest in 2-3 good quality, sturdy sports bras. They hold everything in place and are much cheaper than buying new clothes every month as your body changes. Let the natural transition happen.
Haan yaar, starting mein sabko lagta hai ki size kabhi kam nahi hoga. But actual mein, once baby starts eating solids and milk demand kam hoti hai, size also starts reducing. Bas thoda regular walk kiya karo, sab normal ho jayega!
