Breastfeeding mamas what are you eating!?

Question

So I’m always hungry due to breastfeeding! I am eating everything and anything. Anyone have any other ideas to help me that easy to eat one hand or that I can make a basket of snacks. I really sick of granola bars.

Answer

Psh it’ll be 7pm and I’ll realize I haven’t eaten anything

Answer

You know what sounds amazing but I haven’t gone to the store? Crackers, cheese, and pepperoni. Basically grown up lunchables lol maybe some fruit- just snacks

Answer

These are my favorite breastfeeding snacks/treats to have pre-made on hand for when I get hungry and want something sweet:

Answer

Protein bars, eggs, craisins, oatmeal, nuts, bananas, potatoes, and cheese are the bulk of my diet right now 😂. I’m 28 lbs below my pre pregnancy weight right now so I just keep stuffing my face at the moment. 
One morning I had oatmeal and I put butter, bacon, bananas, and craisins all in it 😂

Answer

Following.  I'm down 6# less than when I got pregnant but I want to eat healthier.

Answer

Everything. I am eating everything.
I recommend tubs of ice cream, they are hearty and easy to prepare.

Answer

I literally am snacking on garbage all day loooool. I have a snack bowl next to my bed with all junk food snacks like gushers, hostess cupcakes, rice krispy treats, Pringle’s. I eat oatmeal for breakfast and usually something hearty for lunch. This week I have had pot pie, chicken tikka masala and chicken tacos for lunch and I made lacatation banana muffins that I also snack on. I am constantly hungry. I have only lost 30 pounds from my pre pregnancy weight. I gained so I am not back to myself at all.

Answer

I'm constantly baking cookies - oatmeal or peanut butter & I love yogurt. I'm eating and eating but I'm still back to my pre-pregnancy weight! Needs more calories for more booty 😂🍑

Answer

My dr/midwife told me to eat a snack and a glass of water with every daytime feed. My fav go to choices are:
GoGurt
Grapes 
Almonds
Pretzels
Dried fruit or freeze dried fruit
Normal or Yogurt raisins
Sometimes i splurge and eat one of those Outshine fruit popsicles (or Walmart brand equivalent)

Answer

I'm struggling with that too! I fill baggies with almonds, peanuts & raisins & keep at each nursing station & on my nightstand. (Anyone else wake up STARVING!?) Also have protein bars (larabar, RXbar, etc) & "Bounce" balls with it. 
For other snacks & meals if I have time I have homemade granola, cheese & meat, homemade bread for sandwiches & pb&j, veggies, salad, etc. Then I always make a hearty healthy dinner.
