Hello Andrea,
I am breastfeeding and I would like to go jogging. Is it a problem? I heard so many conflicting opinions on this issue.

Thanks so much

Firstly, it's wonderful that you chose to provide nature's special blend for your little one!

Providing your doctor has given you the go ahead to return to exercise, jogging is generally considered safe, easily accessible, and enjoyable.
Get yourself a comfortable jogging bra from your favorite bra shop . Be sure to let the attendant know that you are nursing and she'll recommend the right ones. Remember to try on several before making the purchase!
My recommendation, start slowly, gradually increasing your speed and distance based on how your body responds to each workout.
Remember to rehydrate, since hydration is key whether lactating or not!
Jogging can be a great way to incorporate mothering and good health! Consider taking Sweet Pea along in one of the Jogging Strollers that we see everywhere these days. Many parents report that their babies enjoy these slightly faster paced rides immensely!
Whether you head out solo or not, we all know that exercise is part of a routine for good health, and , Yes, even for breastfeeding Mums!
