Interesting question but you do need quite a bit more calories. I was hungry all the time when nursing and it’s true you need more than during pregnancy. Not a time to be counting calories.0

I think people say 300-500 per day. But you need to eat ALL those calories in addition to your regular calories to maintain your milk supply.0

Yep, add it to your food diary and it will take off calories0
