2 issues….I need help with breastfeeding and c section scar issues…PLEASE?
I need help…I had a baby June 22nd. He was born at 29 weeks, 11 weeks premature. He’s still in the NICU, but I am pumping and taking the milk in. My mild supply seems to be dwindling down and I don’t know what do. I’ve done a little research online and I keep reading about some herbal tea with Feeugreek. Has anyone heard of it? Or has anyone tried it? How long do you have to take it before it works and long must you continue to take it after you’ve started. Does anyone suggest it or anything else that can help me with amount of milk flow and to keep it going?
And issue 2. I had to have an emergency c section…I’m wondering when I could start to use cocoa butter or vitamin e to help reduce my scarring?
I thank you so much in advance for all of your help and advice.
New mommy of a beauntiful baby boy….
I also was told to take vitamin e, phyto soy and omega 3? Has anyone heard of that as well?
Congrats on the new addition. I have not heard of the tea nor do i believe it will be all that helpful. I know what i am about to suggest may be a tiny bit hard to think about… but it’s a good plan anyway. Go to a lalache league meeting and meet other nursing moms. Tell them your story of your milk slowly dwindling down. Often they will allow their babies to nurse with you for a bit to help build up the flow of milk and help you keep producing the milk needed for your baby boy. That way you won’t dry up when your son is able to nurse himself. I know it sounds weird, but i know many mothers who have done this sort of thing and it helped the baby which is the most important thing! Your milk helps your son.. period.
Cocoa butter doesn’t work well, i have no idea why that old idea is still floating around. I suppose it goes by the way of using vaseline on nipples… an old stand by but not a good one. anyway… Vitamin E and Vitamin A will reduce your scar. Get the capsules or oil of each and mix them equally together and rub it in several times a day. It will help minimize any scaring and it will help keep it from not getting too raised up. Of course if it is still open at all, you are risking an infection if your hands or dish isn’t completely clean!
Again, congrats!!!
