Are you wondering what not to do when breastfeeding? Certain foods may affect the milk production and certain foods may affect the taste of the milk. Read this!
Are you wondering what not to do when breastfeeding? If pregnancy has seen you following a list of dos and don'ts, the breastfeeding stage is just the extension of that. There are some things you shouldn't do during this stage too.
You are what you eat and your milk is exactly the same. So, you may need to carefully supply nutrients to your little one by eating healthy.
5 Things Not To Say To A New Mom
Certain foods may affect the milk production and certain foods may affect the taste of the milk. Here are some things you shouldn't do if you are in the breastfeeding stage.
Not Drinking Enough Water
The breast milk production may dip a bit if you don't drink sufficient water. So, ensure that frequently drink water throughout the day.
Not Eating Properly
You can start your weight loss diet later but not during breastfeeding stage. As breastfeeding can burn some calories, if you don't eat properly, you may feel deprived.
Ten Ways To Reduce Breast Size During Breast Feeding
Using Birth Control Pills
Hormonal birth control pills may hit milk production. Consult your doctor for other methods of birth control.
Alcohol
Though no doctor stops you from drinking alcohol during the breastfeeding stage, it is safer to avoid drinking.
Too Much Of Caffeine
It is better to avoid excessive caffeine at the time of breastfeeding. Limit your intake to only 1 cup of coffee a day if you can't live without coffee.
Eating Fish
Mackerel and other types of high mercury fish are a big NO during breastfeeding. In fact, try to avoid all types of fish at that time.
Excessive Garlic
Garlic may change the way your milk tastes and that may affect your newborn's milk intake. So, eat very less garlic.
Certain Supplements
Some herbs may dip the milk production. Spearmint, sage are some examples. Also, avoid star anise and wormwood. Also, refrain from taking any over-the-counter meds without talking to your doctor.
