Awesome! I guess it is the breastfeeding because I am not allowed to exercise for 4 more weeks!! :woohoo:

Every little milestone counts. Like the fact that Bella slept for a 3 1/2 hour stretch last night! :o

:hi:

3. My dear Shell Beau!
Breastfeeding does burn a lot of calories!

Make sure you're getting enough to eat, drink and sleep as much as you can!

Sounds like you're doing everything right!

Congrats!

:yourock:

4. BF worked for my wife as well.
Edited on Wed Oct-01-08 05:23 PM by NNadir
My wife nursed my boys each for years. There were people who had a problem with that, but I couldn't care less.

My oldest tasted formula once in his life - he was about six months old - and threw the bottle across the room.

I cannot see even one drawback to breast feeding. Not one. It's cheaper, more convenient, healthier, better for the enviroment, cleaner and it encourages true bonding and yes, it takes off weight.

Congratulations on being there.

5. Goo!
Did you post a pic of her? Yes, I remember the nurse telling me if I BF'd my baby my stomach would get flatter faster.
