Patient's question:
My wife is 25 years old this year. She just had a child not long ago, and after the hundred-day period, she felt her milk supply had decreased. Is it effective to find a lactation consultant for insufficient milk supply?Doctor's answer:
The decrease in milk supply is definitely related to your own condition. For example, the frequency of your child's milk sucking may have decreased, or you may not have been getting enough nutrition recently. Eat more soups and stews that promote milk production, such as pig trotter soup, crucian carp soup, eggs, and millet porridge. Maintain a balanced diet, avoid getting cold, drink more water, eat more fruits and vegetables, and keep a pleasant mood.Advice: Additionally, letting the baby suck more can also increase milk production. Avoid eating raw and spicy foods, as these can reduce milk production.
