But again, nothing is fixed! It all depends on how breastfeeding (exclusive or not), ... the rhythm, interval between shots and mother. In fact, prolactin vary from woman to woman. So if the wait menstruation during breastfeeding, to the other end of the lactation.

The deadline is two ... Eleven months after the birth!
Back famili more layers is a standard PMS ahead: breast tenderness, tension in the belly ... Bleeding is more common than in the rules "normal" longer, sometimes over a week. If you take the pill, it will be shorter.

Famili drink a lot, even if it hurts. Add water a little lemon juice or apple cider vinegar has an antiseptic effect.



I am constipation since birth
You feel heavy ... Normally, if you do not go to the toilet every day. The lack of progesterone.

This hormone slows intestinal transit during pregnancy and remain in the body for a few weeks after birth. Furthermore, intestinal highly compressed on the size of the uterus and can not return to their original position. This is not working! Prescribed anesthetic and sedative, if you have had a cesarean section, did not help. In addition, if you take the toilet - simply because we fear bad points of episiotomy and crack -. Often congested
Complete famili other beverages from water, at least one and a half liters per day. The hard, dry stools and make the problem worse! Also note that women often constipated child: to produce milk, a large part of the water is used in the body. Avoid laxatives improve not prefer the sound of the intestines its psyllium mucilage (which holds water and increase stool volume). Two teaspoons with a glass of water before you go to bed. Put your menu items to promote transit, such as vegetables (raw or cooked), fruits (fresh or dried) and bread.

It takes nine months to make a baby, and "undo" adage. This means that you do not lose your extra pounds by magic!

It takes time. Do not put the plan before menstruation or late lactation. First, because the lactation hormone protactinium in your body, even if you are not breastfeeding, reduces weight gain. Then, because it takes energy to produce milk "is". Do not deprive yourself, but to eat food category in reasonable quantities. You will immediately see the weight loss foods low: vegetables, fish, dairy products ... and cooking: steam sheet in the oven and grill.
Most famili be accompanied by a nutritionist if necessary. It is best to get rid of their extra pounds this year, because if not removed, can be saved and added to. The kg of a new pregnancy Playing sports - after peritoneal rehabilitation - can help. Before, a quick walk down the stairs instead of the elevator ... Take it easy, do not feel heaviness in the perineum.



Back pain after baby is the logic?
Weight gain, hormonal impregnation of relaxation and stretching of the ligaments during childbirth put back to the test! Not to add, be careful with your baby. To lift one foot before the other and bend your knees.
