I've never had such a large appetite! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-appetite-increase-during-breastfeeding-amp-pumping#post-570447 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 20:08:41 +0000 sarac 570447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Doubled, maybe. And it's increased as she's become a toddler and her nutrition needs have changed. I've gained weight nursing - I don't think my body likes accessing fat stores to support breastfeeding.

And the next day I ate the other half. I was starving. And so thirsty, all the time. It was such an about-face from struggling to eat when I was pregnant. It took like 3 months before it calmed down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-appetite-increase-during-breastfeeding-amp-pumping#post-570439 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 20:04:21 +0000 autumnlove 570439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ate like a pig for the first 3 months. I didn't eat as much when I went back to work but I made up for it on the weekends! </p>
