I have had similar issues postpartum with my other kids and aim struggling with how to get out of this rut. After I lose weight for the first few weeks, it starts to increase. This is because I am not yet exercising much, beyond walking, due to doctor recommendations. But also I am SO hungry when nursing—much more than when pregnant. But that additional 500 calories one gets when breastfeeding is not that much and I definitely eat more than that. And dieting is contraindicated for breastfeeding because it can impact supply.

It feels like a catch 22–I can gain weight and breastfeed or lose weight but no longer feed my daughter. I think like the other kids, I will choose to keep breastfeeding, but it’s so frustrating. I’m sure there are people who lose weight because of nursing but I think it is overall a myth (and genera a misogynistic one).

Vent over.
