A new mumma in training !Help?

Question

Hi mums! Im a breastfeeding mumma, pf a 2 month old the past good two weeks i have just wanted to eat eat eat!!! Its driving me insane i have cereal or 2x tpazt with a coffee, ill eat lunch and dinner aswel as constant snacks throughout the day! I will have a salad sandwich for lunch or tuna with rice dinner is usually pretty healthy like chicken or beef stirfrys or steak w salad etc occasionally a quick frozen food dinner when im just to exhausted!
But i seem to be puttong weight back on im always hungry.
And i want to start exercising a couple times a week as im not feeling that good looking 😭😂 
My 2 month old also suffers from colic (severe crying attacks around 5pm) crys a lot throughout the day when shes not in my arms! 
Since my bub has been born i have become a clean freak! 
(Also abiut to move house in 5days time)
So my question how do you mummas eat so your not hungry 24/7, exercise, clean and keep bubba happy all at the same time while extremely tired?!?! 
PLEASE help a mumma out? 🥰 
(Yes i do have a partner who does help cook when he gets home if i haventnmanaged to do dinner however he does work 5-6 days a week 12hr shifts sometimes 12hr night shifts aswel! )

Answer

Finding time to work out will be extremely challenging. For now just focus on going for walks. Your body has been through a lot. Walking is gentle, you can do it with your baby, and it will ease you into whatever you want to do later. 
I try to focus on protein at breakfast instead of simple carbs (cereal). Greek yogurt, eggs, green smoothies. Don’t even bring junk food in the house bc you are so ravenous you can’t say no. 
Go easy on yourself. Your body has changed and does not need to go back to what it was before. Appreciate all that it has done and focus on being healthy overall instead of clothing sizes or numbers on a scale.

Answer

Just a thought. If the baby is getting colic and your breastfeeding, like gassy or a tummy ache. It could be something your eating. Try to see if it’s something connected. Like when i was breastfeeding my son. I gave up fast food, just to be healthier. Then one day i went to hooters and pigged out. The next time i breast feed. He got so gassy. And screamed. I realized it was the food i ate. My only advice to juggling a family and a baby, was to keep a schedule. It will help alot to give you some free time.
