Breastfeeding momma

Hello!
Is there a way to add that I'm nursing my 2 month old to my profile? It definitely changes the number of calories and and everything I need during the day. I tried playing with what my lifestyle is and how much I exercise, but I don't think it will work like that. I know nursing moms need an extra 500 calories per day, I just wish I could add it to my profile so it doesn't look like I'm always over my goals.

Anyone have any help on this?

Thanks!
Hayley

    Hi Hayley.

    I was thinking maybe adding it as a new exercise because then you add the calories you burn per day? Maybe that will work, good luck

    When you add food, you can search breast feeding. It'll take -500 calories from your goal!
