Tips:
1. It is helpful to have a designated area in your home that has key items for comfort
(because you will be spending quite a bit of time nursing) while nursing such as: pillows/boppy, glass of
water, snacks, TV remote, telephone, etc.
Ideas/Food/Herbs to help increase milk volume:
*Nurse and pump more often and for longer periods of time (after the baby is done nursing on one side, pump for a while more)
*A beer helps your milk "let" down; the darker the beer the better
*Oatmeal
*Blessed Thistle Herb
*Fenugreek Herb
*Mothers Milk Tea (at least 4 cups/day)
*Domperidone
