Does metabolism slow down after a woman gives birth?!
Question: My mum had given birth to me 13 years ago, she attempts to reduce her fat but it was never successful, I forced her to go hiking daily, it was moderately tough for her, but I guess the fresh air from the high mountains gives her some better health. She said she used to be real hot and alot thinner before she gave birth to me, I wonder if metabolism slows down at the start of pregnancy or after birth for women.

Its all about the hormones, if she is stressed out, it will be hard for her, and it really depends on the person, my mom gained weight when she became the boss at her job, she worked 12 hours shift, weekends and didnt get pay extra, she was stressed, after she gave birth to me, she went back to her slim figure, then when my brother came, after a year she was slim again, then my dad got cancer, and then we remodel our house, then we moved, all that stress make her eat more and also faster which is bad. But you trying to help your mom is very nice, try going for walks, start her slow, you are a good daughter.
