Unwanted Weight Loss After Childbirth

Breast feeding have been encouraged as a means to give the required nutrients to the new born baby up to two years of age. In the Quran, it is mentioned, a woman has the obligation of breast feeding her children for up to two complete years. Allah says: "Mothers should nurse their children two complete years-- for whosoever desires to complete the nursing term." (Al Baqarah 2:233)

Besides fulfilling the commandments in the Islamic faith, the side benefit is losing some excessive weight for new mothers. However, there are cases where mothers continue to shed more weight even after reaching the ideal point.

There could be a few factors attributing to this weight loss.

1. Internal factors such as problems with piles, kidney malfunction and thyroid.

2. External - the big probablility is due to stress and malnutrition.

In the first case, such problems can be treated over a period of time with consistent intake of liquid and herbs. Patience plays an important role. Smoking and intake of chemical solutions might cause more health side effects later on.

In the second case, the breast feeding mother needs good food supplement. I would suggest taking enough molasses, spirumadu and cereal radix. The mother must also take in enough liquid, i.e minimally 2.5 litres of plain water each day.
