Since I’m breastfeeding Max, the Pediatrician recommends I load up on steak, cheesecake, fatty, high calorie foods.  Which is great!  I love me a good fatty steak. He even suggested drinking Ensure.  Excuse me?  I’m breastfeeding, not using a walker!

And my Ob/Gyn Doc is telling me NOT to exercise or lift anything heavier than Max for a solid 6 weeks.  Umm… does this sound like a good combination to you?   I sure hope it’s true that breastfeeding burns more calories than does being pregnant.  If not, I’ll be gaining more weight in the next few weeks than I did the whole 40 weeks of pregnancy.  But don’t worry, I will NOT take weekly pictures of my progressing breastfeeding belly.
