Lactation

Another post for the new mothers. I have come to realise over time as more and more people I know have babies that although breastfeeding is natural it is not always easy.

This post is for all breast feeding mothers having trouble meeting the needs of their growing babies.

• Fennel seeds: They can be taken in a variety of ways. Added to food, made into a tea or chewed as is or roasted.

• 2 drops of fennel oil in honey water every 2 hours.

• Fennel and fenugreek tea

• Chrysanthemum tea

• Mangos

• Quality fats

• Warm cooked foods

• Reduction of dry foods

• Stewed fruits

• Milk (organic of course)

• Incorporating sweet, sour and salty tastes into the diet.

• Stress, fear, anger are best avoided if possible.

• Hot baths
