I am down to nursing 2 times a day. I am on day 17 of the Whole 30. I was wondering if these "extra meal rules" apply to breast feeding women who are feeding throughout the day and those that are providing limited milk. I sometimes feel hungry (especially in the afternoon/evening) but I'm wondering if I am misreading the signals and eating because I feel that I am "allowed" since I am breastfeeding. Is it boredom or hunger is what I am trying to figure out.
I understand there isn't a perfect W30, but I wondered if any of these BFeeding moms are doing the 4 meals + snacks and only nursing 2X daily. That might help me better understand my situation.
Is the Whole30 safe for pregnant and breastfeeding women?
