Feed Me, Seymour!
I swear, all I can think about is what to eat these past few days. I have had a RAVENOUS appetite, and look to eat everything in sight! My weight has gone up from my post-partum low, though it is still lower right now than pre-pregnancy. Not for long, I fear.
You know, last time was the same. I ended up 20 pounds heavier than pre-pregnancy within a year after having Parker, and it feels like I'm headed down the same path! I don't want to! I want to use this time to LOSE weight, not gain! I thought breastfeeding kept your metabolism high!
Could this be because of my low iron? Or maybe I'm extra thirsty and just not drinking enough? Am I supposed to be drinking tons extra because I'm breastfeeding? Cause I'm swimming away as it is!
