I’m having such a hard time keeping my milk supply up when I have next to no appetite :/

Do you use essential oils at all? There are quite a few you can use to help increase your supply

Eating is still hard for me but staying extra hydrated, taking prenatals, and using EO has helped tremendously and I haven’t had any problems with my supply

@housewifelife, like what? I only use peppermint for migraines and lavender for relaxation

@vegasmomma, peppermint is a NO NO for breastfeeding ! That alone is used to dry out your supply when you are done breastfeeding.

You can do a combo of fennel and clary sage in a roller ball with FCO and after each feeding roll it on your breasts to increase the supply for next feeding.

Basil is also another oil that helps with the supply.

Also when it comes to the peppermint be very careful with the use of it around your LO. That is one of the oils that is not safe for infants to inhale. Just saying that because I didn’t know at first, not trying to say you are doing anything wrong.

@housewifelife, okay good I haven’t used the peppermint in a couple months so I’ll keep that in the cupboard lol

@vegasmomma, yea! Hope you find something that works for you!
