What food and fruits can not eat during breastfeeding?

What can not do during breastfeeding? Example: Hair rebonding, colouring?

hehe no worries dear i am sure u had a nice time away... maybe gave u bionic strength there?

multitasking for women, is not even a question, we women have been doing it for ages

During the 1st 3 months - I avoided any drinks with caffeine (tea, coffee). I limited my intake on soft drinks. I also limited my intake on spicy food. I totally avoided cabbage as this can give baby tummy ache/wind and also it may reduce supply.

After the 3 months..i slowly took coffee (1 cup a day) and starting consuming spicy food like normal.

Always remember that what you eat..it will somehow reflect in your breastmilk..hence..you got to know what you ate that gave baby certain symptoms..such as gas, tummy ache..hyper (not able to sleep)..or just simply, he/she dont like the taste of your milk. It is always trial and error as different babies can take certain things...some can't.

Remember..even if you drink milk (eg: Anmum or normal fresh milk), if your baby is lactose intolerant..your baby may get the effects. Or if you eat nuts, if he/she is allergic to it..she may also get the effects...hence it's very important to know what you ate.

As for hair rebonding or colouring..it's ok to do it during breastfeeding. My only advice is wait after 6-8 months..after your hormones stablizes..as you will lose lots of hair before that...and your hair tends to be very dry.

q...the only problem you had the last time you bf was dwindling supply right? latching on no problem?

it took 3 days to get my baby to latch on properly... :S

I see.. 3 days is still ok.

I think the first problem that most moms encounter (which they don't realise/know) is latching on. Most moms assume that it's quite simple but this also pose a problem as the right latch is very important...for baby to properly drink and for mommies not to feel pain.

My hairstylist..was shocked that i'm still bf..and she told me that her friends said..bf is painful.. I bet because of wrong latching. I told her..no..no pain at all.

Added on June 28, 2011, 9:59 amsunflower808: another advise for you is..pls make sure that you know the right latching on (besides knowing how to get more supply and what to eat or not). Coz..if your baby latches on wrongly..your baby may not drink the milk properly (which results in baby not full, crying) and you may feel pain.

I also think that this also a reason why new moms say that they are not producing not enough of milk - propbably they latched on wrongly..thus not drinking enough milk directly.
