How much weight will I lose after delivery?
Immediately after delivery you may lose around 5.44kg from the combined weight of baby, placenta (0.9kg), and amniotic fluid (0.9kg). Over the next few days more weight is lost as retained water and some of the extra blood gained are released and the uterus shrinks, according to BabyCenter.com.
Eat healthily and do not attempt to lose more than 0,45kg per week. Wait at least six weeks before starting low-impact exercise. If breastfeeding, continue to eat more, drink extra fluids and your pre-pregnancy weight will be achieved after about six months.
After initial dramatic weight loss of about 5,44kg. post-delivery, the remaining extra weight should be lost as gradually as it was gained. Your body has endured nine months of extra strain; trying to lose weight too rapidly often results in exhaustion and discouragement. Expect the complete weight loss to take at least six months even if breastfeeding.
Be sure to seek medical advice when wanting to go on a weight loss plan after delivery.
