Do you guys know any tips or any types of food i need to eat to produces more milk for my baby?😭
Sorry for the late message but I wanted to reach out to moms trying to breastfeed I'm going to add another message and sorry it's late im up feeding my daughter right now lol hope I can help!
Ginger tea, oatmeal, nuts, carrots, Malta if you drink it with milk.
I'll do more research thank you 🤗 @sabreycastro1996
@victorialove, you can find them online, or you can make your own, it's a lot cheaper to make them yourself. you can find recipes online :)
Lactation smoothie doubled my supply, check out my 2nd to last post (I think) for the recipe
I take euphoric herbals. They're great. Look in to them. You can use the code MOMLIFE and you get 15% off your first order.
I'll check them out thank you so much @zaysmomma
No problem. Oh btw Mother's Milk the tea taste like black licorice, I add honey and it kinda helps. The mom that recommended Mother's Milk suggested to try to find the pills. Fenugreek and Brewers Yeast can be found in Walmart in the vitamin aisle.
Lactation cookies helped me a little bit. They have them at babies r us. The chocolate chip oatmeal were really good 😋 they are huge cookies tho and kind of pricey. Like 25-30$ it is probably easier to make your own!
@victorialove, I honestly don't for sure know what it is, I'm assuming it's a tea, but I heard it helps in large quantities. lactation cookies helped for me! I made them myself, they tasted pretty good. 😁
I found mothers milk tea at whole foods, they have a capsule version too but they were out of it.
Water- Almost a gallon/day, Fenugreek, Flax seed, Goat's Rue, Brewers yeast, Mothers milk, oatmeal, spinach
Alright thank you & what is mother milk tea? @sabreycastro1996

Hi mama so I saw your post and instead of re writing what I just wrote to someone else I'm just going to copy it so if it doesn't match up to your situation I apologize but I hope it helps! The best thing you can do is feed on demand every chance you get and stay hydrated you can try super foods such as avocado,almonds, oatmeal (not instant) etc. idk if you had your baby yet but if your going off of the amount of colostrum your getting, don't. You body works off of supply and demand the more your baby demands the more your body will supply when your baby is born their tummy is tiny about the size of a marble (don't quote me on that but it's tiny) so even if you only have a little bit of colostrum that's all your baby needs ! As long as your baby is making enough pee and poop diapers then you are good . It's not recommended to pump the first six weeks because you can cause your body to have an over supply. Your baby can actually get more milk out than the pump can so a lot of times moms think they aren't making enough milk because of how much they pump when really that's not the amount of milk your actually producing ! The best thing to do is feed on demand and stay hydrated I never pumped and measured how much I fed my daughter I knew she was getting enough and till this day I haven't had an issue with my supply . I drink mothers milk tea on occasion but I try to just eat breastfeeding super foods and lactation smoothies . You can look on Pinterest they have lists of superfoods as well as easy recipes for lactation smoothies, shakes, cookies, and more! Feel free to message me if you need any help :)
