My experiences on improving milk prodution during breast feeding.
Breast feed your child for at least minimum six months.
Here are certain home remedies which have helped me improve Lactation & breat feed my baby.
1) Drink 3-4 litres of water daily....very very important
Your body needs lots of fluids during breast- feeding.
2)Have half a litre to one litre of milk daily..
There is One Ayurvedic powder available called SATAVARI- to be taken with milk.....creats wonders to milk secretion.
3)Eat dry grated coconut around 100 gms daily. Even fresh grated coconut is helpful.
4)Eat Carom seeds( Hindi name- Ajwain) around 1-2 teaspoon after every meal.Mildly Roast the carom seeds bafore eating.....this helps to improve the milk secretion and in addition prevents the baby from gastric problems.
5)Eat a bowl of cracked Wheat (Hindi name- Daliya) daily....you can mix milk & sugar to make a desert out of the Daliya or make any spicy recipe as per your choice.
6)Have enough Ghee with your food around 5 tablespoons daily.
7)Fenugreek seeds ( Hindi name- Methi Seeds) should be consumed daily....in the form of sprouted seeds or you can make vegetable or some sweet item by mixing them with rice & jaggery .
8)Juice of Neem Leaves & Neem Stem consumed every morning on empty stomach also helps.
9)Make ladoos by mixing Gum( Marathi name- Dink), wheat flour & dry fruits..eat one every morning
10)For non- vegetarians, you can have one Egg daily & chicken or paya soup.
If you love Fish eat fishes with shells (Mussels)
11)Continue with the prenatal tablets or Calcium/Iron Supplements
*Please do not keep your stomach empty when breast feeding...The Rule is " The More Healthy & Full the Mother eats The More Lactation Improves"
*The Baby has only one source of nutition and that is YOU!!!This is just the extension of your pregnency
Hope this post is Helpful to you.
