Hello U1188736101- Congrats on having a baby! What an exciting time in your life.
Making the decision to breastfeed is hard work and so beneficial to your baby AND has health benefits for you. We suggest tracking your breastfeeding as activity in the "exercise" portion of the log. Once you type in breastfeeding you will see there is an option for minutes. Simply log it once a day, not every time you nurse.
Here is some more info on how to use MyNetDiary when breastfeeding and how many calories it burns: https://www.mynetdiary.com/tracking-weight-calories-and-nutrients-with-mynetdiary-while-pregnant-or-breastfeeding.html
