Default LC and breastfeeding, slow loss

Help, I've been doing Atkins now for 6 weeks and lost 10lbs the first 2 weeks and haven't lost any more this month. This is very discourageing. I do feel better not as bloated and popping out of my jeans but come on, I've been in Ketosis as well and still am not losing. The only thing I can think to blame it on is that I am breastfeeding my daughter so my hormone levels are making it more diffucult to shed the weight. And I'm pretty sure I'm getting more than the recomended caloric intake for a breastfeeding mother. My daughter is 18 months old so I'm not her only source of nutrition, she nurses probably 6 times a day mostly when she is sleepy or wants to cuddle, so do you all think it still is because I'm nursing. Please help me. What else can it be, if I've been in Ketosis this whole time. Thanks for all your help, Sarah
