August Baby born in July

First off, congratulations 🥰 how was your birthing experience? This will be my first as well so I'm curious, I'm not sure about the appetite question so my apologies for that

I just took a breastfeeding class last night and they say that oatmeal helps with milk supply.

It's to soon to rub it in my face! 😫 I want mine to come out already! But congrats she's a doll!

2nd time mom here, 1.Congratulations (wish it was me 😭) 2.Oatmeal Cookies helped keep my supply up, breastfeeding burns a lot of calories so eating a lot of protein will help you keep up production but keep the weight off. I gained almost no weight my first pregnancy but gained 50+ lbs from breastfeeding and eating unhealthy

Congratulations mama!! I’m a first time mama questions How did u get urself into labor I’m 39 weeks an want her out lol & how did u prepare for ur postpartum

If you search galactagogues, you'll get a whole list of foods and herbs that help with milk production! It's a weird word, but it's the name of the category of food items that increase production. The one that worked the best for me for my 1st kiddo was fennel seed. I would boil water, add fennel seeds, simmer for 10 min, then strain the seeds out and drink the water. I'd drink about 2 glasses a day and I produced insane amounts of milk for the 15 months that I nursed my son.

Fennel tea, oatmeal,coconut water. You have to definitely eat a lot more then usual you will be hungry

What has worked in the past for me is body amor, water- hydration is key!

Oatmeal, healthy fats! Balanced diet for sure!

Congrats!! You need protein, healthy fats, carbs, and more fluids than you think so I’d just heat up some chicken noodle soup to put in a coffee thermos to eat/drink whenever you get a chance.
