No,No,No!! Dangerous for baby
To be on the safe side, I would consult with your doctor and get their opinion on this matter. I work for GNC and I always tell my customers to check with their drs. before they try anything like this.
no any medication you take is passed on to the baby.
Wait till you stop breastfeeding for the baby's sake
only if you want to kill your baby! in other words, NO!
Nursing on its own will help you to lose your baby weight. Taking diet pills while nursing will pass on the amphetimines to your baby. They are proven to be addictive. Please, wait!
diet pills are not a good idea while nursing. If you are loosing fat while nursing by just using pills, then your baby will lose also, this is not good. Nursing is a great thing that you are doing for your body and for your baby. Go ahead and wait to loose the weight. Your health and your baby's is worth it.
i would not recomend any diet pills to a nursing mother, just because anything u take in your body also goes through the breast milk and to the baby.
there is this picture of a baby bottle that has different things inside it. pills, cigarettes, needles beer bottle caps. this picture says a thousand words, the caption on it says "would you feed this to your baby." any kind of pills i would not take when i was breast feeding my son. if i can find the picture of it i will post it or send it to you.

good luck and hope u keep your baby safe
I am not a doctor or nutritionist but I am four-time father who watched all nursed for a year. Common sense (and probably every pediatrician) would clearly answer NO to this question. Not only are you constantly passing everything through to your child, you are also feeding two people. Trying to lose weight while providing the nourishment for another is foolish. Breast-feeding gradually and naturally facilitates weight loss for the mother. Let nature work. Besides, being at the one year mark for most means being close to the end for nursing, so why not wait? Don't make a decision you and your child might regret.

Incidentally, proper nutrition and exercise -not diet pills- is the best way to long term weight loss and control. But that's a whole another discussion.
