A. Plz dont take stress. its d greatest enemy of our breastmilk. Else u ned only three items. Protein, Calcium n Water. fenugreek, zeera etc are source of calcium. Best n effective way of increasing breastmilk... Protein-Dal esp rajma, urad..., Egg,Paneer cheese Calcium- u will b fed up of different sources like shaptavari, zeera like I did. My gyn gave me calcium supplement. water- 90% of breastmilk made of water. Rest take balanced diet. Above was totally very very effective fr me. Dont take stress u will b fine. I breastfeed my child till now.But in beginning I was trying to inrease my insufficient breastmilk
