Yes, I think you should. The reason is because you're using so many extra calories while breastfeeding, and if you stay at 26 -28 a day now, you probably won't continue to lose after you ween your baby.
You might try to eat healthy, higher calorie foods, following the Healthy 8 Guidelines. For example, you can add nuts which are high in Omega Fats, or higher calories fruits such as bananas.
I have to add - keep in mind that I am neither a doctor nor a nutritionist, though, and you should follow their recommendations.
