milk

Avatar n tn Infant formula has the same nutrients for brain development as breast milk. The question why he stopped drinking the breast milk in the first place is an important one to ask. Did you wean him off, or you stopped producing breast milk, or he on his own stopped drinking it? These are questions needing to be answered before you decide to try to refeed him breast milk.
Avatar f tn It depends. With my first child she was only on formula and it was a bit stressful cause sometimes we would run out and have to run and get some or there was a recall on some brands, etc. With my daughter now (she's a month old) we're only giving her breast milk even if I have to pump it.
Avatar f tn So my bd wants to me to breast feed he so anti formula..I think breast is best but I dont want to actually put the baby on the breast i wana pump and use the milk in the bottle...I mean as long as he getting the breast milk it shouldn't matter if its bottle or breast. ..
Avatar n tn Hi... just wondering if anyone has managed to breast feed after having a breast reduction?
Avatar m tn Hi, I am new to this website. After giving it deep thought and consideration I have purchased the breast enhancement pill from 'breast actives'. It retails as the number one breast enhancement pill out there in the market. I haven't started taking them as I am waiting for my exams to be over by next week.
Avatar f tn Oops sorry *blessed thistle, not milk thistle.. Milk on the brain lol! There are also breastfeeding support tablets that are made with both of those ingredients, one brand is "herbs of gold" you should be able to get them from your local health food store.
Avatar f tn And you can make or have someone make lactation cookies. They are full of ingredients that help boost milk supply. There are many different recipes on google, just find one that sounds good to you!
Avatar f tn Infant formula has gotten better at matching the ingredients and their proportions to that of human milk.
Avatar n tn I made a recipe with flaxseed and Brewers yeast. Worked great and tasted good too. A little more expensive to make than regular cookies due to the Brewers yeast and other special ingredients, but they last a while. There are some really good resources include La Leche league which gives helpful articles on food and tricks to increasing supply. Pump when you can if baby doesn't take the other breast because it will stimulate milk production.

4437866 tn?1388119624 Works so good. Breast milk digest faster than formulA so their poop will be runny and yellow. And alot more poopy diapers too. Seems every diaper chamge is poopy lol. Dr said thats normal.
10275373 tn?1409333029 So I found this recipe and I plan on breast feeding and I thought this was useful cause I want to make a lot of milk for my baby so if u plan on breast feeding u may find this useful as well ... 1) Water OK, so water isn’t technically a food, but it is the most essential aspect of ensuring you’ll have an adequate milk supply. According to studies, 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.
Avatar f tn There are conflicting opinions about whether soy-containing foods are harmful or helpful in relation to breast cancer and/or the risk for breast cancer.
Avatar n tn The primary active ingredients in these Nokomis products are amines found in such plant foods as oats, cucumbers and radishes. Amines are essential elements for cellular and tissue growth and regeneration. I would absolutely not take anything that my Dr has not recommended first. That said, if you think that oats, cucumbers and radishes will help your sexlife since they contain amines those are all healthy foods you can add to your diet instead of taking a pill with who knows what in it.
Avatar f tn When first starting out it is important to put baby to breast there are hormones that help with milk production and let down and baby helps with that. A pump does not give the mothering instinct like baby. It is also important to relax and not be stressed because that will hinder let down and production.
Avatar m tn After all, before China became known for its deadly imports, substandard pharmaceutical ingredients, toothpaste and milk products, it was also one of the birthplaces of natural cures. In fact, this study found that the daily dose of mushrooms combined with regular consumption of green tea yielded a risk decrease of – hold on to your button caps – 90 percent!
Avatar f tn Does anyone know what I can do or eat to make my boobs produce more milk? I had my baby 4 weeks ago and I'm really trying to breastfeed. But my boobs are only producing 3-5ozs and my baby needs more milk than that so her pediatrician is making me supplement with formula and I really don't want her on formula. So any mom's have ideas for me to try?
Avatar f tn Oh yes, your diet also plays a great part in the ingredients in breast milk... Definitely ....
Avatar f tn There is nothing wrong with bottlefeeding but breast is best. Even if you struggle to breastfeed you can always express your milk into a bottle, it's full of antibodies and has huge benefits. I breastfed for a month and struggled but expressed for a while after. We ended up using formula from the age of 3 months to a year but I do wish I could've breastfed longer, and will try harder this time. There's nothing wrong with formula.
5562282 tn?1381720520 m giving my child the best nutrition I can, breastfeeding is of coarse better cause its milk produced by your body for your child and it has so much natural ingredients which formula cannot have, plus reading all those multiple line ingredients on formula bottle just scared me cause I have no idea what those are.
Avatar f tn When will you start to get milk in your breast? I am 31 weeks and have yet to get mine, it makes me nervous cause I plan on breast feeding.
9156053 tn?1406059654 I wana try to...I'm sure it hurts just alil at first if ur breast are engorged with milk..
5612058 tn?1373576034 Enough wet and poopy diapers and if the baby is thriving. Breastfeeding is a supply and demand thing so just let baby eat and you will produce enough. Make sure you drink water and stay hydrated.
