I've seen a few ladies post that their milk isn't enough.. I've shared what I do a few times... Here it is..
*Drink a Guinness or Vita Malz after the last pump/nurse. they both taste like crap to me, but it works!
*Eats lots of oats!! I have granola in my yogurt every morning!!!
*I drink at least 3 glasses of the Still Tea. (Germany) It's a tea which the main ingredients are fennel, anis, caraway seed. I buy the Still teas with lemon and lavender as well. Baby gets it through your milk and helps their belly... (Speaking of baby belly.. In Germany, we have a baby Still tea, too. I put an once of it in a breast milk bottle. He sleeps ALL NIGHT, no spit up, has gas once in a blue moon, and he likes the taste!! :0 )
*LOTS and I mean LOTS of water!!!! I drink at least 3 liters of water a day. I'll have juice and something else, usually. (I'll still have wine or beer at dinner and wait until I don't feel "buzzed" or affected by it, then pump.
*I let my breasts "breathe" at night sometimes. I won't sleep with a bra on so the milk can let down!
*Make sure you get enough sleep and eat healthy!!! Good luck!!
