I agree with you purple. Celebrity mothers are in popular magazines with articles about how quickly they lost all the baby-fat. This is not healthy. Maternity leave is a time to enjoy your baby and recover from birth - regardless of wheather you breastfeed or not. Some breastfeeding women will feel uncomfortable feeding in public and tend to head to the fridge when bored at home instread of going outside. Others will eat a lot in order to give them energy for breastfeeding. Then some mothers who do not breastfeed might loose the weight more slowly. But the important thing is that both the mother and baby are healthy and happy. Time enough to worry about the weight when you are recovered.
