A. Hello mom milk supply over the period of time does show variations . Have a healthy diet , abd avoid stress as well too, keep yourself well hydrated with fluids too. Also foods like garlic, flax seeds , panjiri , dry fruits , milk , fenugreek and drumstick leaves, jeera or ajwain or saunf water, oats etc can be taken they help to increase the milk production.

Q. #AskTheExpert My LO is feeding for more than an hour whenever i breastfeed but still not satisfied (we introduced bottled from week 3 itself). If I pump and give the milk in bottle, she is satisfied. What should i do? I am trying to switch to exclusive breastfeeding from pumping (maximum) and bread mmmst feeding (once a day) I also see a dip in my supply after trying breastfeeding only for a day or 2. I am finding difficult to spare time in pumping & also taking care of my lo. Also, I see breastfeed might reduce my milk supply.
