it's probably a combination. start with creating a schedule for yourself where you have to eat. then come up with small easy to eat meals that either taste good or are so bland that you don't mind. like maybe drink a protein shake when you breastfeed. cheese and crackers at bed. a couple of hard boiled eggs in the morning. nuts and an apple at playtime. that kind of thing. your body needs calories to make milk and your depression might be causing you to slip up on your self care. so do a few things for yourself - it doesn't have to be hard or expensive. make sure you eat at least a little bit every couple of hours or drink your calories if that's easier. if you can get outside and take a walk every morning. try to make time for that it helps a lot. meditate for a few minutes when the baby is sleeping. even little things can help. if you can't do it for yourself do it for your little ones! (you'll get healthier in the process. )
