It did affect my milk supply so I didn't bother til I finished BFng Jake (I lost a kg in the week I tried to work out, but he was so hungry and having extra feeds and didn't gain any weight - which was monitored frequently as he'd been very sick) .... so bear in mind that for some people it does affect milk supply. This time I'm not bothering til I've finished breastfeeding.]]> Fri, 09 Oct 2009 21:05:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29001&PID=801542&title=exercising-and-bf#801542 <![CDATA[Exercising and BF : My first time back at the gym...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29001&PID=801328&title=exercising-and-bf#801328 Author: palomino

My first time back at the gym i didnt even think about wearing a supportive bra...yea i paid the price! (it never was a problem for me before baby) Now i normally wear a good bra and a singlet top with built in support to hold it all in.]]> Fri, 09 Oct 2009 18:03:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29001&PID=801328&title=exercising-and-bf#801328 <![CDATA[Exercising and BF : One thing I have heard is that...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29001&PID=801317&title=exercising-and-bf#801317 Author: HoneybunsMa

One thing I have heard is that if your running wear two bras.

Also to feed before the workout as there have been cases of woman getting mastitis from their boobs being full when exercising

I went back to body combat post c-section and breast feeding when Spencer was 10 weeks.
I researched on kellymom as I'd heard conflicting advise on exercising and BF. I'm so glad I read up on it.

I've lost about 5kg since July goingt to the gym 3 times a week (and I go hard out now )
I'm still BF and it's not affected my milk in anyway.
I just need to make sure I drink lots of water on the days I go.
And yep I forgeot my sports bra one day and it was just awful, lol![o] ]]> Fri, 09 Oct 2009 09:30:47 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29001&PID=800661&title=exercising-and-bf#800661 <![CDATA[Exercising and BF : Just keep hydrated otherwise your...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29001&PID=787626&title=exercising-and-bf#787626 Author: lilfatty

I second a really good sports bra! I was walking/running most days and playing competitive soccer when I was breastfeeding. Apart from having huge boobs that I had to strap down it was fine. I also timed it so that I did exercise after feeding DD so my boobs were empty as they were way too heavy to run when they were full (and I was scared of leaking everywhere with all the bouncing)!!

It didn't have any effect on my milk supply either ]]> Sat, 26 Sep 2009 21:51:47 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29001&PID=787531&title=exercising-and-bf#787531 <![CDATA[Exercising and BF : Wear a REALLY good bra, ease your...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29001&PID=787416&title=exercising-and-bf#787416 Author: FreeSpirit

Wear a REALLY good bra, ease your way back into exercise, don't try to lose wieght too quickly (losing fat to rapidly release stores of toxins into the body, which is why you sometimes get pimples if you drop a few kg's). Make sure you stay hydrated.]]> Sat, 26 Sep 2009 20:00:48 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29001&PID=787416&title=exercising-and-bf#787416 <![CDATA[Exercising and BF : What advice is there around exercising...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29001&PID=787400&title=exercising-and-bf#787400 Author: rocmummy

   What advice is there around exercising and breastfeeding, does it affect the milk at all??? Hmmm?

Before having the lil girl, i was a frequent jogger and id like to get back into that slowly. Can anyone tell me if there is anything i should be aware of, or, nothing to be worried about?

Thanks.]]> Sat, 26 Sep 2009 19:41:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29001&PID=787400&title=exercising-and-bf#787400
