Patient's question:
A few months ago, I just had a baby. After giving birth, I have been breastfeeding consistently. A few days ago, I drank some lamb soup, and later I noticed a decrease in my milk supply. Does drinking lamb soup help increase or decrease milk production?Doctor's answer:
Drinking lamb soup can help increase milk production. Lamb soup contains high levels of protein nutrients and rich vitamins, along with carbohydrates, which have a very good nourishing effect on women during breastfeeding. It can also help stimulate milk production. Women during breastfeeding should aim to achieve the effect of "one person eating, two people benefiting." It's recommended to drink more soups to increase milk secretion. Drinking plenty of water, eating easily digestible foods, and fresh fruits and vegetables is also important. Avoid staying up late and ensure adequate sleep.
