  • Jiao Fanfan said she gained 15 kilograms during pregnancy and lost 7 kilograms within three months after giving birth by cesarean section.
  • She said she did not restrict her diet during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, and later combined healthy eating with exercise.
  • Jiao Fanfan said she and singer Lou Junshuo may want three or four children, while planning to leave the timing to nature and space pregnancies at least two years apart.

Jiao Fanfan says motherhood has changed her life, but she has not ruled out having a much bigger family. The entertainer, who married singer Lou Junshuo in 2024 and gave birth by cesarean section at the end of March, said she may want three or four children.

โ€œI really think children are so cute,โ€ she said while appearing on the September cover of Baby and Mother magazine. She added that she wants to let things happen naturally and would leave at least two years between pregnancies.

I really think children are so cute!

· Jiao FanfanShe explained why she would not rule out having three or four children.

Jiao said she gained 15 kilograms during pregnancy. Although she had been heavier than she is now, she said she felt upset when her clothes no longer fit. She was still breastfeeding and said she had not deliberately restricted her food. During pregnancy, she ate whatever made her happy, including barbecue, hot pot and Michelin-starred restaurants. After giving birth, she resumed eating raw fish and even left her postpartum care center to go out for food.

Pretty impressive.

· Jiao FanfanShe joked about losing 7 kilograms within three months after giving birth.

She said she lost 7 kilograms during the first three months after giving birth, a result she described with a laugh as โ€œpretty impressive.โ€ She later credited healthy eating and exercise, and said she wanted to encourage women who struggle with their weight to remain confident and optimistic. She and Lou also plan to reduce snacks and eat more whole foods as their son begins eating solid food.

The couple have maintained date-night rituals despite becoming parents. Each week, they visit a restaurant where they once went on a date. After their son goes to sleep, they watch films together at home. Jiao said Lou sometimes hints that he wants a late-night snack, eventually persuading her to cook steak. โ€œHe is happy when he eats, and that makes me happy too,โ€ she said.

He is happy when he eats, and that makes me happy too.

· Jiao FanfanShe described why she willingly cooks for her husband when he asks for late-night food.
