Can I breastfeed my baby after taking the Chinese medicine that makes me drink milk?

After giving birth, mothers usually have to breastfeed their children. If a mother has breast milk, she should stimulate milk secretion in time. Some mothers will take steps to increase milk production under the guidance of a doctor and use traditional Chinese medicine to increase milk production. The mother's milk has a great impact on the baby, so when increasing milk, you need to be careful to avoid affecting the baby's feeding. So can I breastfeed my baby by taking Chinese medicine that produces milk?

1. Does drinking Chinese medicine with milk have any effect on children?

It is recommended to take Chinese medicine orally under the guidance of a doctor and not to take it without authorization, otherwise it may have adverse effects on the baby.

2. How to produce milk

The amount of milk is controlled by endocrine hormones and also depends on the development of the breast tissue itself, which are all congenital conditions. In addition, to maintain sufficient milk supply, you must also pay attention to getting enough sleep and rest during the lactation period, getting more sun exposure, breathing more fresh air, having a regular living and eating schedule, and not being too nervous about your life. In addition, you should appropriately increase the intake of protein-rich foods, such as lean meat, eggs, etc., eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and especially drink milk-producing soups, such as chicken soup, pig's trotter soup, crucian carp soup, etc., which will increase the amount of milk. Letting babies suck the nipples regularly can reflexively promote mammary gland secretion and maintain adequate milk supply.
