How many calories, while nursing? ICHverwirrten \'m!?

I searched all mornings over it, how I can create a healthy menu, was based on the calories, that I need, because I nurse. I am confused because La Leche-Verband says, thereß during he/it nurses, calorie reception should be 1500 to 1800 calories per day approximately. / newborn/nb.


I become so confused, I am not good for counting calories!!!!! I only wishes, there was a menu example, that could give me ideas over what, to eat. With the 2700 calories so last thinks I his/its simply too much meal.

I will estimate whether you help me to understand this.

You/they must not worry so very much! Es\'s groß, that you do, and you want to have the best possible food, but there is not any perfect lot of calories, or meal that you should be into being taken for your baby in order to have the best milk, it will be perfect and as well like nourishing something always you eats and but much you eats.

Only you guarantee that you eat enough in order to last fully and doesn\'t eat any junk, although, even if you did, your milk no less nourishing ones would be.

"Women even on very low calorie foods normally enough brand milk, at least until the calorie becomes reception of the mother for a prolonged period of time critically low. In general, the baby is gotten what he/it needs. Some women worry, thereß if eats some days long her/it/them badly will influence this also her/its/their milk. There is not any Bedürfnis after worry. Such variations won\'t influence, you milk supply or Qualität. It is said in general, thereß women 500 special calories per day must eat in order to nurse. This is not true. Some women eat more if they nurse, but others doesn\'t make, and you eat some even less, without any of the mother or the baby or the milk supply zugefügten damage. The mother should eat a balanced food stipulated by her/its/their appetite. Rules dafür, to eat brand, that nurses, that is complicated unnecessarily, only. "
