Definitely recommend a trip to your GP - get your thyroid checked. Hyperthyroidism is a really common reason for rapid postnatal weight loss. Have you got a family history of coeliacs? That can sometimes be "triggered" by pregnancy and weightloss can be an indicator of that.

Rianna you may not be able to get Complan in Oz as I think its a NZ brand??? But the pharmacist will be able to recommend a comparable item for you.
I still think a chat and a few bloods at the GP is a good idea too (the nurse in me speaking)

Rianna i am the same, lost my pregnancy weight very quickly, and am now at 54kgs (was 58kgs pre-preg) Am worried about losing more weight but not too sure how to put weight on!

These breastfeeding babies are a bit like parasites (in the very nicest cutest way!) And take all the goodness out of you they need leaving not much for mummy! but im sure you have a very bonny Jackson for it huh!
