Patient's question:
A few days ago, the baby turned one and a half years old. The baby is not very sturdy, so I wanted to breastfeed the baby more, but suddenly the milk supply decreased today. The baby can't feed, and I feel so sorry for myself. What should I do? Can the milk supply be recovered after it decreases?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, it is not appropriate to change things like this now, as drinking milk is not good for the baby. A one-and-a-half-year-old baby should eat nutritious foods, vegetables, fruits, fish and crucian carp soup, etc. Steam an egg yolk for the baby every day and add milk powder to these high-protein foods. It is recommended to drink more water. If there is no milk, then only milk powder can be added. It is recommended that at this stage, the focus should still be on complementary foods.
