- Give time to yourself (at least 3-4 months). Don’t start dieting just after birth. You need to get all the energies back which you have lost during the birth process.
- Be realistic and don’t try to go for a quick weight loss diet, this can only damage your health. Don’t idealize Hollywood celebrity mothers.
- Analyze your face, ankles and hands if they are swollen it’s just the after effects of giving birth to a child. Don’t worry as soon as the swelling reduces (2-3 weeks) you will come back to normal.
