Any other Mamas that are counting while BFing?

I had a baby girl in June, and I'm hopping back on the calorie-counting wagon (more out of concern of whether or not I'm getting enough calories than for weight loss at the moment, although it is a long term goal).

Anyone else tracking while breastfeeding??

Manda, I KINDA did, but I really just ate when I was hungry on things that I knew were good for me and the babies. I did find out that you can set your goals to be more 'active' so that it ups your calorie intake without having to enter it like exercise. Good luck, and congrats to you and Jeremy! So glad I got to meet you guys!

There are websites that will help you determine how many calories you should consume while breastfeeding. Good luck!
