What do you eat?

Question

Girls I really wonder what do you eat these days? (after birth) I ask this bcs in our family the old people don't let us eat some food such as orange, potato, meatball, chickpeas etc.. as they say it affects our milk so the baby negatively. I don't believe a lot but I have to admit sometimes as they are always around me 😀 Do u have a special diet or some limitations like this?

Answer

I eat whatever I want!! Baby can be sensitive to some foods while bfing but you don't know until you try. So I always eat everything and edit if I notice a fussy baby, which has never happened in my case (3 babies).

Answer

I eat whatever I have time to shove into my mouth 😂

Answer

The doctor told me anything I ate while pregnant should be fine with baby because he's been exposed to it. The only thing to watch for is foods that make him gassy or anything he seems to react to. I try to avoid spicy foods and not overdo it on leafy greens. Sometimes family advice is old wives tale stuff. I'd say just watch how food affects you and baby and adjust accordingly.

Answer

My Dr told me to eat what ever I wanted unless she gets really fussy. If she does she told me to try going off dairy, whole grains. Eggs, citrus, and nuts. The only thing I've noticed a difference with is dairy.

Answer

Hmm. I've been eating hummus daily. Potatoes and my regular diet.  I produce milk, baby is good and growing. Listen to your oed, not your family.

Answer

Midwife recommended not to eat a binch of stuff that could affect baby's digestion such as brocoli, cabbage, onion, bell pepper and a lot more stuff that i have an a list. Pretty much all the veggies I love are on there!! 
And guess what? Apparently kiwis make your milk taste awful and avocado reduces milk production. They say when you give birth you can eat and drink all you want... well I definitely ate more stuff while pregnant and still don't drink alcohol! 😣😂

Answer

Eating blander then normal for now as to kitnuoset babies belly (love spicy). But other than that, trying to eat nutritious and whatever whenever I can!
