What should I do to keep up my breast milk?

Question

I know to nurse every 2-3 hours. What foods/drinks help promote breast milk? I want to breastfeed my daughter as long as possible eventually I’ll pump when she’s a month. She’s 4 days old.
Thank you ladies for the tips I appreciate it😊

Answer

Healthy fats and electrolytes. Avacados, coconut oil, coconut water, Gatorade. Remember you need more calories now than you did while pregnant!

Answer

water amd gatorade are my go to drinks.i also make no bake balls.  you mix 1 cup oats, 1/2 cup pb, 1/2 cup ground flax, 1/3 cup honey, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup of chocolate chips. hand roll into balls of any size you like amd refrigerate to help them set. they're SO good and I swear they help! good luck
