[clare chan]

hi mummies,

been bf for almost 4 mths, pumping at work while latching at home, but recently notice there is dip in my supply, i bought fenugreek n start taking on sat, 2 cap 3 times a day, until now my body smell like maple , but e fenugreek does not seems work on me, i dun feel any engorgement, i thk still the same.

Today mon, came to office n pump, e volume still very low, im very depress as i do not wish it to stop so soon, wad else can i take other than fenugreek?

Hi mummy, don't feel depress, as your mood would affect your supply. I am working and breastfeeding too. How is your diet like? You should take in fish soup, papaya, and drink more water. Greentea works well for me, i treat it like plain water, and a day without it I can feel the drop in supply the next day. Most important of all is you must not stress yourself too much.

hi chiro san,

Greentea? those in tea bag de? hais, morning i take oat n cereal, lunch= rice , meat and fish; tea time i take nestum or horlicks, then i drink plenty of water in between. i just dun understand y there is a sudden drop, which really worry me, n fenugreek dun help out worsen my worries.
