Brief Answer:
Detailed below.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing back.

I would like to give a few suggestions and list some foods below:

1. Foods which are fried and spicy should be avoided. However, if you are a non-vegetarian, poultry, meat, fish and other sea food along with milk gives you most of the essential vitamins and minerals.

2. Apart from the non-vegetarian diet, fresh green leafy vegetables, fruits like banana, apple, nuts like almonds, oats, quinoa, beans, cabbage etc. can be eaten to provide iron and protein.

3. Feeds should be given 8-12 times per day. Check the baby during and after feed for gaseous distension. Feed the baby from both sides. Use of a breast pump an hour before the next feed improves milk secretion as the tissues are activated.

4. If the baby is active, sleeping well, gaining weight normally and is passing stool normally, this means the milk supply is sufficient.

5. Avoid caffeine, check for any infection if there is no improvement, manage your hormone doses if you are using any and avoid stress.

Hope you find this information useful. Please get back if you need anything else.

regards,
Shanti.V.
