1 month P.P and exclusively breast feeding and pumping and VERY hungry

Is it normal to feel this hungry? Am I eating because I’m “board” is it stress eating or anxiety eating? Or is it just normal to be this hungry during breast feeding/pumping journey?

I was extremely hungry with my first. This time a little less but barely...

it’s normal because i do the same & when i ask my doctor they say when you don’t eat your supple is down.

Yes, I eat more than I did pregnant🫠

Yes haha! You lose calories the more you pump/breastfeed, especially the first few months.

I tend to be more hungry breastfeeding than pregnant.

I drink a protein drink for breakfast and snack on fruits and nuts etc. and try to eat high protein meals so I’m not just eating junk but your body needs extra!
