I am breastfeeding my 1 year old. He nurses every 2 -3 hours and eats solids. How many breastfeeding calories should I add to MFP? I am in the process of gradually weaning him but I am sure it will take some time at the rate we are going.

I read some where that breastfeeding burns 3 calories per minute (having searched the Internet for the answer to this exact question). Now that my little one is also 1 and eating solids with occasional nursing, I just time roughly how long he feeds for & add in 2 calories per minute, to be on the safe side.0

I believe it is 300 calories a day if the baby is eating some solids0
