A lactating woman can produce around 850 ml/day of breastmilk during the first three months postpartum. The energy burned by a woman producing 850 ml/day of milk is around 750 kilocalories per day. Therefore, by eating the right amounts of carbohydrates, protein, and fats, you can produce enough milk and succeed in getting back to your pre-pregnancy weight.
