How much protein do you need postpartum?

The Healthy Post Natal Body Podcast

Send us a text

In this week's episode I waffle, and I DO mean waffle (so apologies for that), about protein intake postpartum.
Does the popular guideline of "1gram of protein per lb of body weight"go for postpartum women as well?
In fact, does it actually go for anyone??
I, as you listen to me go through some numbers that I pulled out of thin air, hope that this will give you an idea as to;
How much more you should be eating if your breastfeeding/expressing, what the right macro split really is and how the protein focus ties in with that.
I also briefly talk about backpain after pushing a pram for too long and why your hand position could actually be the cause, AND THE SOLUTION, to that particular problem.
