Maasi kai – donno englidh name
Chithaarathai (Greater Galangal/alpinia galangal/thai ginger/finger root)

this will make some portion of the ingredient get mixed with the milk. Now scoop the milk which contains all the above ingredients and mix with few more drops os mother’s milk and feed it to the baby.

Even if you dont get all the above ingredients, try this with as many ingredients as u get.

1. Boil some garlic pieces in milk. Then drink the milk and eat the garlic.

2. Mother’s horlicks is suposed to be one drink that really helps.

What I really felt was useful was the use of an extractor. I read that, If you extract milk often and empty your breasts, the milk production will improve as the body will get a signal that more milk is required. Sometimes the baby drinking will not empty the breasts and hence the body will not produce more milk.
I am not sure if this theory is right or wrong…but I anyway  I used the Medela electric extractor. I really felt this helped me tremendously. You could also try this.

Happy nursing!!:)

If your baby suddenly becomes inactive…or if you feel the baby is becoming breathless or whatever… to check the activeness of the baby…
flick the baby on its feet (lower side of the feet). Flick it hard…the baby will start crying…this indicates that the baby is fine for the time being…I dont suggest that you can avoid going to the doctor….. But this is just a first aid check that can give you a re-assurance by the time you reach the clinic.

One natural way of doing this eating one pomegranate everyday. this is a tasty and natural way to help…..try it

Edit: Another sooper tip I got on the internet which worked miracles for me….lot of people have said that if vitamin c is taken into the stomach along with iron…the absorption will be very high.
So I started taking pomegranate juice along with some sweet lime (moosambi) juice. In one week my haemoglobin content increased from 10.6 to 11.9….try it…

You can also try to cuk on a lemon or so when you have any green leafy vegetables

Also…it seems calcium in stomach reduces the absorption of iron. So try not to have any milk products like plain milk, cheese etc along with the iron that you are having…
