Many new mothers wonder if breastfeeding can help them shed the extra pounds gained during pregnancy. While breastfeeding alone is not a magic solution for weight loss, it can aid in the process. Breastfeeding burns calories, and it has been estimated that exclusively breastfeeding mothers may burn up to 500 extra calories per day. Additionally, breastfeeding releases the hormone oxytocin, which can help shrink the uterus and promote weight loss. However, it's important to note that weight loss should not be the sole focus of breastfeeding, as it's also crucial for the health and bonding of both mother and baby. A healthy diet and exercise plan, along with breastfeeding, can help new mothers achieve their weight loss goals.
