    Many just set MFP at maintenance (and add their exercise calories) and the extra calories burned from breastfeeding is their deficit. Just remember that if your deficit is too high your milk supply will suffer. If you notice this occurring then eat a little more.

    No personal experience (!) but breastfeeding is in the food database as a negative calorie food.
