Do you think eating lettuce can reduce milk production?

Patient's question:

Recently, I just gave birth to a baby and my body is still very weak. I am currently in the postpartum period. To promote milk production, I eat some very greasy foods every day. Today, I want to eat lettuce. Will eating lettuce cause milk suppression for postpartum women?

Doctor's answer:

When the mother eats lettuce, lettuce usually does not return to the milk, but lettuce is best eaten when fried rather than raw or cold to avoid causing diarrhea in the baby. During this month, she must pay attention to a balanced diet, not being picky or biased in food choices, and pay attention to keeping warm to avoid catching a cold. It is also important to ventilate the room in a timely manner to breathe fresh air. Within a month, you need to drink more soup, which is helpful for milk.
