Chronic low milk supply??

fooh..foooh.. lap debu berhabuk bersawang lama x update haha..
Lately, i read some twitter friend tweet about their critical milk supply. It was kinda reminds me back about Adib's brestfeeding journey..pheww!! its sweet and at the same time hard and hurt..

5 years back there's no breastfeeding gadget like today. Back then i used pureen electric breastpump which really irritate my nips, its was sore like hell all the time..phew!! just by reminding that makes me hurt..pernah bleeding until the milk is pink color.. i buang that milk takut adib change to raja bersiong! haha..

Here are the basics of my personal lactogenic diet which comes from the net.. i've compile it since i was pregnant and kept it in my iP notes *which oso full with the recipe haha*
I hope it will help you to figure out what works best for you as you customize your own lactogenic meal plans.

1. Eat oatmeal and oat products- i have it for my breakfast and tea time..being me which full with vit-M, i just mixed it with my hot milo and some raisins..

2. Drink barley-based drinks such as homemade barley water- didnt get any barley yet..

3. Consume plenty of dark green vegetables- i have so much sawi during my confinement.. just add in the porridge.

4. Ensure adequate fluid intake each day (100+ ounces is helpful for some mothers). Although some mothers find that drinking too much water can decrease their supply, I found that I needed about 120 ounces per day to produce milk.

5. Drink lactogenic teas- some says green tea but i didn't drink any since i want to avoid caffein..

6. Eat plenty of protein and good fats- i just take milk and chicken.. hurrm cheese sometimes..and oso tuna spread on the bread..

Actually there's a lot of other reason that may be cause the chronic low milk supply.. maybe you may read this MOBI for detail explanation..
