I plan to breastfeed and lose weight after giving birth, which got me to thinking, is it safe to take diet pills while breastfeeding? So I did a bit of reading, and short answer I found? A big NO.
The after-birth fats are there for a reason, and it’s to help women produce enough milk for the baby. Plus, diet pills will just get in the way of your hormones trying to get back to its normal cycle. So as a word of caution to breastfeeding moms, even the best diet pills are NOT safe. If you really can’t stand the unsightly fats, go the natural way. But of course, consult your doctor for the best ways to lose weight naturally while staying healthy for yourself and your baby.
