Read the whole thread - husband was right. Op is breastfeeding and really does need a lot of food.

First, this is such a sensitive time, wishing you so much luck. Your husband is also going through a big transition and probably nervous. I’m wondering if have you restricted in the past? As someone who has a history of this, not full blown disorder, but history of restricting and being worried about what I’m eating as many women are, your posts are really giving me vibes that you may have a history of this. The meals sound like they are actively trying to avoid carbs etc for example. Is it possible you have a history of being a bit rigid with your food? It may be subconscious but it may be affecting you. Your husband may be more aware of it than you can be because it’s so hard to see our own behavior. As much as you can try to be kind to yourself and your body. Feeding yourself is a gift to yourself and your baby. Having my older son really helped me heal my relationship with food as I realized that I didn’t want him to learn to fear food the way I did. Maybe your baby can do the same for you - to teach you it’s ok to enjoy it and not be so scared of feeling full. Your body is meant to be fed, and full, and satiated with a variety of foods including grains. Sending hugs! You got this. [/quote]
