Good foods too eat with breastfeeding?

High protein and good fat diet (lots of lean meat, eggs, beans, nuts, avocados) And A TON OF WATER

@karnamarie, thank you 😊

no greasy foods it'll dry you up

@littlemancomingsoon516, really?!

that's what I've been told by multiple people and it would make sense. they said eat tons of veggies and oatmeal because it helps boost your supply @megbaby07

@littlemancomingsoon516 oh wow that's crazy!

@megbaby07, I've eaten the same that i would if were not breastfeeding and I'm going on 7 months exclusive boobie milk lol

Greasy food will not dry you up. You do however want to stay away from real peppermint, caffeine (if baby is sensitive), few others I can't remember. decongestants will dry you up. Menthol is unsafe around children under 6.

also high protein foods and fats won't increase supply, you want at least 500 extra calories than you would normally eat.

@arielannette, @meagansimone see I'm moving in a month so we don't have anything really out to cook cook with lol I usually eat like oatmeal bars and stuff but I want different lol

Unless ypu have a medical condition, you likly won't have supply issues. Just feed on demand, it's best for your supply

@meagansimone, she has been eating every hour for like a week now 😐

How old is she? Babies nurse for more than just hunger. She could also be going through a growth spurt.

@meagansimone, 2 months. & it's just hard because I'm trying to help my grandma unpack and get things where she can move around. But she will eat and fall asleep

It's hard the first few months, they're back to back growth spurts. it gets easier, but right now is going to be hard.

@meagansimone, it really is, I seriously can't do anything or put her down because she just fusses

She's still new to this world, for. most of her life, you were always carrying her. It'll take time.
