TIPS FOR ENRICHING YOUR BREAST MILK

Here are my top tips that really work:

Drinking Ovaltine, Milo, Horlicks and Fennel Tea (herbal) all make your milk richer in texture and more filling for your baby.

Eating rice pudding, scones with butter, small frequent mini meals all keep you energised and breast milk always producing.


This should be kept up with taking Busy B with C supplement from Holland & Barrett. Keeps Mum going as well as her immune system. I always took this during pregnancy and after. Helps lay off the post natal and feeling blue. I have recommended this to family and friends when they were pregnant.

PLEASE try not to drink fizzy drinks and junk food whilst breast feding or slighty before giving a feed, as you will notice that this thins the milk you produce and makes it look watery and dis coloured. Try and see for yourself. ALWAYS remember that everything you ingest whilst feeding your baby, the baby will take. This, to can mmake baby more colicky and restless when your not nourishing yourself and the breast milk. I have seen this with friends and some family members who struggled to change their diets for the sake of the baby.

Good milk leads to a happier baby:)


PLEASE TRY AND ENJOY THE EATING & DRINKING
