I know this has been touched on in a couple of other threads but what food should we all be eating to maximise the amount of milk we produce? Like a few of you, I am worried i am not producing enough milk and am very tempted to give a formula feed at night but am loathe to do it just in case it puts her off my milk, or causes her to develop colic.
So I have read that Horlicks and Glucose can help, and porridge. Is this based on anyting scientific or is it just what works for some?
If anyone has got any good advice on this I'd be so grateful. I always make sure I have 3 meals a day and snack a bit in between, and am drinking water/juice/milk, but I still find that I a rarely feel 'full' of milk and when I express I seem to produce very little.
Thanks everyone.
