I was wondering if any other breast feeding Mum's have experienced weight loss at quite a quick rate?
My baby girl is 9 months old now and still feeding around 8-10 times over a 24 hour window and around her three meals. At around 7 months I suddenly lost quite a bit of weight (3-4kg) and it really scared me. I've been to the Doctors three times and had blood work done, a stool test, and a hormonal profile and everything 'seems' normal, but I'm eating A LOT, not really doing any exercise and this weight loss just doesn't feel right.
I know I should just accept that things are fine, but I feel like something else is going on and so I wondered if anyone else had experienced this through breastfeeding as that's what I've been told it's likely down to.
