I have a 2 months old baby girl. I had a c section delivery. Before pregnancy I had 55 kg weight but after delivery I had 59 kg. I didn't gain too much but wanna back my perfect body shape. Please suggest me, being a breastfeeding mom how to gain muscle mass rather than fat because my face is getting chubby as I have to indulge in more calories (though I don't take much calories just 1300. My activity is very very low, even I don't come outside from my room as its winters.

You are a nursing mother, so don't bother about your weight or shape. Eat healthy food because the little one is depending upon you and get nourished from mummy's milk. But yes, do some physical activity like household tasks or some light exercise for good metabolism and freshness.
