Question

Accepted Answer

Cumin Seeds (Jeera) – This spice is a boon for all the new mothers. I use these for dual purpose- (a) As a moderator to increase by breast milk (b) to reduce my belly fat. Since this blog is all about increasing breast milk, I will share the recipe for increasing your breast milk supply. Soak some cumin seeds for 3-4 hours, then boil these soaked seeds for 10-15 mins. Strain the seeds and your drink will be ready. Sip it once it is lukewarm. Don’t burn your mouth (I have done this mistake). For it to show results, drink it before going to bed.
