Contrary to popular belief, exercise does NOT typically have a negative effect on your milk supply! And, a 2019 found that “higher levels of physical activity by pregnant women are associated with improved breastfeeding outcomes.”

Here are some tips to keep your milk supply up with exercise:

1️⃣ Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! 💦 Staying well-hydrated is essential for maintaining a healthy milk supply. Drink plenty of water before, during, and after your workout to replenish fluids.

2️⃣ Fuel your body with nutritious foods and don’t try to be in a calorie deficit. 🥦🍎 Eating a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains (yes, eat carbs FFS) can provide your body with the necessary nutrients to support your milk production.

3️⃣ Gradually increase your workout intensity. This gradual approach allows your body to adjust without putting too much stress on milk production.

4️⃣ BONUS TIP: Nurse before you workout. No one wants full milk jugs when working out.

Most importantly, listen to your body. Pay attention to how your body responds to exercise. If you notice any decrease in milk supply or feel excessively fatigued, take a step back and adjust your routine accordingly. Every mom is unique, so finding the right balance is key!
