Does breastfeeding make you hungry?

Shawnte

I’m 2 months postpartum and I feel like my stomach is a never ending black hole waiting to suck up everything in sight. I have NEVER been this hungry in my life... not even when I was pregnant. I feel so guilty most days because about 75-80% of the groceries goes straight into my mouth. I’m not working so I can’t really help foot the grocery bill but I HAVE to eat. I’m exclusively breastfeeding and I feel like it drains everything from me. Does any other breastfeeding mommies get this hungry?
