Patient's question:
My wife has been postpartum for over a week, and her milk supply isn't particularly abundant. So, she drinks a lot of soup every day, but she's afraid that her diet might be incorrect and cause milk to decrease. I'd like to know what to avoid during the postpartum period to prevent milk from decreasing? Does eating buns cause milk to decrease?Doctor's answer:
During childbirth, you can drink more crucian carp soup and pig trotter soup, which is an auxiliary lactation aid. During childbirth, you should not eat fennel, MSG, beans, pepper, fennel, etc. These all have the function of reducing milk production. Additionally, you should not eat as much of these as possible after childbirth. You can also drink more sugar water to affect postpartum recovery. Milk will also become more abundant, and ensuring adequate sleep is also very important.
