I did the old one, (circa 2002) and if I recall, it was 24 per day but you add 10 points to that because of nursing. I can’t remember, and all I have is the new weight watchers info which I think sucks, the flex and core plans. Please help! I weigh 158. Thanks!

Yes, you add 10 points to your original points if you are nursing. It’s important for the baby, and you to eat these extra points. Congrats on your baby!
To find your daily points allowance, give yourself the number of points listed next to the option that fits your situation best:
Your sex:
If you are female- score 2 points
If you are male- score 8
IF YOU ARE NURSING- score 12
Your age:
17 to 26- score 4
27 to 37- score 3
38 to 47- score 2
48 to 58- score 1
Over 58- score 0
Your current weight:
Enter the first 2 digits of your weight in pounds. If you are 175 lbs for example, you would enter "17".
Your height:
under 5’1"- score 0
5’1" to 5’10"- score 1
Over 5’10"- score 2
Your activity level on most days of the week, how do you spend your day?:
sitting down- score 0
occassionally sitting, but mostly standing- score 2
walking most of the time- score 4
doing physically hard work most of the time- score 6
Add up all your scored points- that is your daily points target.
As you celebrate your birthday, increase your daily activity, or as you lose weight, you will need to keep retaking this quiz to most accurately figure your points allowance
