breastfeeding ... Do you log the calories?

I'm currently nursing my 17 month old, and wasn't sure if I should be logging it as a workout? They say you burn 300-500 calories a day...
Thanks

    I never did. I just added that extra 500 to my total daily burn and just increased my calories by 350-400. I wouldn't count it as a work out unless your heart rate is up.
