looking for support with breast feeding and weight gain. I've always had trouble gaining weight but even more now that I breast feed. Any help would be great

    I'm afraid I can't help too much, but I hear ya! Oatmeal is a good filling food, keeps me from needing a snack. I also found that if I make sure I have a snack in the afternoon, it helps keep me from going overboard at dinner. Also, make sure you're getting plenty of liquids, as thirst likes to disguise itself as hunger!

    I was the same when breastfeeding and whenever I cut calories it affected my supply. I have managed to lose some since stopping though.
