It is not recommended to do strenuous exercise such as running during breastfeeding, because after strenuous exercise, the body's anaerobic respiration produces a large amount of lactic acid, which will affect the composition and taste of breast milk. Breastfeeding your baby can help you lose weight, and you can wait until after you wean your baby before exercising to lose weight. Do not do strenuous exercise such as running during breastfeeding. Strenuous exercise will produce lactic acid, which will enter the breast milk and is not good for the baby. In addition, breasts are heavier during breastfeeding. Running at this time can easily cause sagging breasts.

It’s okay to exercise, but be careful about the time. There may be some inconveniences during breastfeeding. When you run, your breasts will shake violently, especially when your milk is not growing. If the breast tissue is stretched and you have no milk or mastitis, the result may not be worth the effort.

If you insist on running, moderate running is fine, but it is best to choose jogging, because it is not suitable to do strenuous exercise during the breastfeeding period. Therefore, you must make all preparations before exercise, and the time must be controlled appropriately. Take a walk after running as a rest. Moreover, your arms must be swinging when running.

It is true that it is very easy to gain weight during the confinement period, but you cannot lose weight during the confinement period, so many women are curious whether they can run during breastfeeding? The lactation period is an important period for feeding the baby, and strenuous exercise will definitely have a certain impact on the baby's feeding. If you must insist on running, jogging is only recommended, and strenuous exercise is not recommended.
