The glass of water each time you nurse is to ensure you are taking in enough water.  It's just easier than trying to keep track of water intake.

I plan to breastfeed too I heard a bunch of ladies say drink a glass of water while the baby is eating! (:

She was asking about benefits .... not saying she was going to do it for that reason, and I'm sure if she's researched benefits then she also has looked at how to stay healthy and eat healthy for her and baby .... my Dr and pediatrician has told me to eat normal and stay hydrated and by normal they say three big meals or six small meals just as if you were trying to eat healthy during pregnancy....

I did weight watchers after 4 Weeks to lose the ”weight” and eat healthy. Their program has modifications for breastfeeding... I had to stop ww because I was losing too much (2-3  lbs a week, and even when I tried to do the maintaining instead of losing).. And you know what?? I still lost 1-2 a week!! I couldn't keep my normal weight I like to be at for months and I ate all the time... So, for me it does... It happened after both pregnancies...
