Post partum weight gain?!

[racheg]

I am 5 months PP

I remained very slim throughout pregnancy and for the first couple months PP I lost lots of weight without trying and was tiny.

I am just coming to the end of our breastfeeding journey and I am suddenly wanting to eat loads and am gaining weight as a result.

Did you experience this?

Does finishing BF correlate with or cause weight gain? Is that a thing?

I’m sure I read that it causes another huge hormone overhaul - that could be why you’re wanting to eat more?
