Hi! I'm breastfeeding my baby & understand that breastfeeding burns 300-500 calories a day-- how have others charted this in their profiles? Thanks!

    I created an exercise called it Breastfeeding. I add it everyday. 60 min (just because you have to put a time with it) then make sure it gives me 500 extra calories.

    I never did since I never really knew how much I was burning by nursing. I'm going on 7.5 months, longest I've nursed any of my kiddos!
