How have you controls your breastfeeding cravings. My breastfeeding cravings started big time yesterday. I want to nip them in the butt before they get worse. What did you do to prevent cravings from happening or getting worse.

    the first two months of breastfeeding were just as bad as pregancy cravings.my cravings after both deliveries was sugar! cookies, sweets, chocolate, cake anything w sugar.. W waking up at night constantly and then breastfeedingsucking out ur energy ur are very low on energy level is low so it craves sugar. or at least mine did. and i know a lot of other new moms did too. i slowly had to learn how to give up eating cookies trhoughtout the day. I started to substituting the oreos and chocolate chips cookies w frutis and yogurt oatmeal. and stop buying cookies so they wouldn't even be in the house.. try finding a healthy subsittute for whatever you are craving. it will get easier..
