profile image of Priti SharmaPriti SharmaMom of a 6 yr 2 m old boy3 years ago

A. Hi I too had low breast milk due to fever after my son's delivery. I used glass feeding bottles by Pigeon as they are really good. Dont cause infections, plastic bottles cause infections. Use and wash glass bottles in boiled water. Secondly, you xan try to increase your breast milk by eating sabudana kheer, masoor dal, kacha heeng. Sabudana kheer helped me the most. My baby left drinking bottle milk after a few months. I also took a tablet called LACTARE, a very good tablet, no side effects. This also improved my breast milk production. Moreover, try watching you baby to your breast, the more he demands the more milk will be produced by your body. Do not stop breast feeding.
