    11 weeks post partum with my second and breastfeeding. I've added some calories to my goal since I'm BFing (aiming for 1830) but had a small supply dip today. But desperately wanting to lose 22 pounds, ideally 30 by 2018. Any others in the same boat?

    Hey! Congrats on all the babies, mamas! I EBF my 3 month old! I'm in no major rush to lose this weight, as I'm still ravenously hungry all the time and want him to get all the glorious liquid gold as possible. Most diets scare me because I'm afraid of losing my supply!

    Hey everyone! I have a 3 week old :) I am wondering if there is a breast feeding setting in goals or how are you all deciding how many calories to eat?

    Hey there! I've been a breastfeeding momma for 2yrs now (and am probably ending the end of this journey soon).

    It takes ~20 calories to produce 1 ounce of milk. Most people will recommend eating an extra 500 calories a day, but it varies a lot depending on demand (I BF my 2yr old, so I factor +300 as she eats mostly solids).

    P.S. I've noticed eating oats increases supply and, of course, drinking plenty of water.
